Olivia Holdt has claimed your HSBC Player of the Match after her stunning goal earned us a 2-1 win over West Ham United in the Women’s Super League.

The Denmark international was back at her very best and on the scoresheet once again to earn us an important victory in the London derby and, in a poll run exclusively on the Spurs Official App, Oli grabbed the majority of your votes to take the crown for the sixth time this campaign.

Back to winning ways in the league, we had to produce a superb second-half comeback to overcome the Hammers at Chigwell Construction Stadium after the home side took the lead in the first period through Shekiera Martinez.

Having had it all to do after the break, we came out fighting and, nine minutes into the second period, Matilda Vinberg got us back on level terms with a sensational strike from distance into the top right corner.

Then, on 74 minutes, Oli got in on the act and treated us with another stunner in the contest, rifling home from range, which proved to be enough to win us the game and see us return to winning ways in England’s top flight.

That goal against our London rivals sees our number 11’s goal involvement tally to nine goals in all competitions – six goals, with four of those in the WSL, and three assists in total.
