SOC:West Ham down, Spurs survive on dramatic EPL final day

West Ham United have been relegated while Tottenham survived on an emotional final day of the Premier League season when Pep Guardiola and Mohamed Salah made their exits after record-breaking spells in English soccer.

West Ham beat Leeds 3-0 but that wasn't enough to climb out of the relegation zone because fourth-from-bottom Tottenham also won, 1-0 at home to Everton, which meant they stayed two points clear of their London rivals.

Joao Palhinha scored Tottenham's winner in the 43rd minute and Spurs defended stoutly to stop Everton scoring the two goals that would have kept West Ham up.

"After a bad season like this one, we showed up as a collective and had amazing support from the fans," Palhinha said.
