Tottenham 3 – 2 West Ham
Tottenham started the Jose Mourinho era with victory at West Ham, who almost mounted a late comeback.
Son Heung-min gave Spurs – who sacked boss Mauricio Pochettino on Tuesday – the lead with a stepover and finish.
Son then crossed for Lucas Moura to score at the back post and Harry Kane headed in Serge Aurier’s cross.
Michail Antonio drove home for the hosts – and Declan Rice had a goal disallowed by the VAR before Angelo Ogbonna scored deep into injury time.
England captain Kane – who has scored 21 goals in 22 games for club and country this season – is now Spurs’ third-highest scorer ever with 175.
Tottenham move up from 14th to sixth before the 15:00 GMT kick-offs, with Manuel Pellegrini’s West Ham remaining two places above the relegation zone.
