Tomas Soucek secured West Ham's first home point of the season as they battled to a 1-1 draw with London rivals Tottenham. But the Hammers could have snatched all three after handing a debut to club-record signing Lucas Paqueta.
Boss David Moyes claimed before kick-off that Paqueta had not so much as passed a ball to his new team-mates after only completing his £52million switch from Lyon on Monday.
And it showed when, with four minutes remaining, Vladimir Coufal pulled the ball back, only for Paqueta and fellow new signing Emerson Palmieri to leave the ball to each other, 10 yards from goal.
Moyes fell to his knees on the touchline after the Brazil international passed up the chance to make himself an instant Hammers hero.
