Two protesters stopped from tying themselves to goalposts at Spurs vs West Ham

Tottenham Hotspur's 3-1 win over West Ham United on Sunday in the latest of a growing list of disruptions to Premier League matches.Stadium security staff have been on high-alert all weekend following a series of incidents during top flight matches where activists have stormed the pitch attempting to tie themselves to the post, but staff at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium were quick to react and hauled two men and a woman away from the pitch before another major delay was caused.The protesters were all wearing t-shirts with the words 'Just Stop Oil' written on them - referring to the political pressure group by the same name who are reportedly campaigning against the expansion of oil fields in the North Sea.The brief pause - which came part-way through the second half - did little to disrupt Tottenham's flow, who leapfrogged both West Ham and Manchester United into fifth place following an emphatic victory.

A brace from Son Heung-min and a Kurt Zouma own goal settled the tie, with Said Benrahma's first-half strike a mere consolation for the visitors.Despite failing to get on the scoresheet, Harry Kane's hat-trick of assists saw him become the most prolific goal-provider in the Premier League since the start of last season.

In that time, the Tottenham striker has bagged 19 assists, one more than Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold and Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes.Can Tottenham finish above Arsenal this season?
