Not a happy homecoming for Tottenham's Bale - Sportstar
The HinduWhen Gareth Bale came off the bench in the 72nd minute to begin his second chapter at Tottenham Hotspur the hosts were 3-0 ahead and cruising against London rivals West Ham United. Little more than 20 minutes later Bale and his teammates trudged off crestfallen after Manuel Lanzini's stoppage-time screamer earned West Ham an unlikely 3-3 draw. After Fabian Balbuena's 82nd-minute header and Davinson Sanchez's own goal gave West Ham a lifeline, Bale then looked poised to score after a trademark mazy run, but his shot grazed the outside of the post. The clock was ticking and in the last few seconds we lost two points.” West Ham manager David Moyes charged on to the field when Lanzini's shot hit the net and he said he always believed his side could get something out of the game.
