Two incredible goals earned Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United a point apiece under the lights at Wembley as Heung-min Son canceled out Pedro Obiang's strike with minutes to spare.
Obiang put West Ham ahead midway through the second half with a sensational 30-yard drive.
By the 70th minute they still had not had a touch in Spurs' penalty area, but then suddenly and entirely against the run of play they found themselves in front thanks to a goal-of-the-season contender.
West Ham edge two points clear of the relegation zone and, while it might not always be as pretty as Obiang's moment of inspiration, David Moyes has hit upon a fruitful formula when faced with the capital's heavyweights.
"I think we've shown fantastic resolve and resilience and I have to praise all of the players because really there were so many plusses for us".
"For me, as a youngster, it's all I ever knew - living 10 minutes from the training ground, going to loads of the games".
"It was a brilliant strike", he said. "They are disappointed they didn't win it, but, in the end, I'm pleased with the recent results".

They ended the contest with 31 attempts to West Ham's three but were staring a costly defeat in the face when Obiang scored with the visitors' first attempt on goal.
"I saw the possibility and I was very lucky".
Mauricio Pochettino (Tottenham manager): We only scored one goal - and I think it was the most hard chance!
"I'm thrilled to come away with a point, Spurs have some really exciting young talent, I have seen them beat Real Madrid here, beat teams by four or five", Moyes said. It was only when West Ham scored that he made the changes and went more attacking.
And he said he felt Spurs could still make the top four. Their performance belies those stats.
West Ham's Javier Hernandez, right, vies for the ball with Tottenham's Eric Dier during the English Premier League soccer match between Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United at Wembley Stadium in London, Thursday, Jan. 4, 2018. We've already see Son score like this before and we will see him score like this again, but this is not part of Obiang's game and he has chipped in with a wonder strike.
