Tottenham Hotspur launched a late comeback to rescue a 2-2 draw against London rivals West Ham United at White Hart Lane this afternoon.

The visitors found themselves two up shortly after the hour mark courtesy of goals from Cheikhou Kouyate and Diafra Sakho, but Danny Rose pulled one back for Spurs before Harry Kane swept home a 96th-minute equaliser.

Here, Sports Mole looks at who impressed during a dramatic London derby.

TOTTENHAM

Goal

Hugo Lloris: Denied golden chances for Sakho and Valencia to prevent his side falling even further behind, and was just as responsible for the point as the goalscorers. May be upset to have been beaten from such a tight angle for the second goal, but could do little about either West Ham strike. (7/10)

Defence

Kyle Walker: Was kept busy by the relentless Valencia and saw his own influence on the game wane as a result. Did not get forward as much as he would have liked and was sloppy in possession on more than one occasion. (5/10)

Eric Dier: Was the hero in the reverse fixture with his late winner, but was lucky not to be on the losing side today. Drawn out of position all too easily and given a rough ride by Sakho. (5/10)

Jan Vertonghen: Like Dier, was never given a moment of rest by Sakho and watched on forlornly as Kouyate nodded in the opening goal. (5/10)

Danny Rose: Lost Sakho for West Ham's second goal, but was one of few Tottenham players who can be proud of their performance today. Scored a goal, albeit with a mishit effort, and was an attacking threat down the left all game. (7/10)

Midfield

Nabil Bentaleb: Tested Adrian a few times from range and held his own in a midfield battle that West Ham comfortably won. (6/10)

Ryan Mason: Also had a number of long-range efforts, although most ended up off target. Came off second best against the likes of Song and Kouyate. (5/10)

Andros Townsend: Disappointing performance having been handed a rare start in the league. Failed to track Cresswell and could not exploit the space behind the West Ham full-back when he did get forward. (5/10)

Mousa Dembele: Hauled off at half time after an ineffective opening 45 minutes in which his main contribution was giving the ball away in the build-up to the opening goal. (4/10)

Erik Lamela: Played a part in Rose's goal with a good cross that drew Adrian off his line, but still failing to live up to expectations. Never really got into the match and failed to step up to the plate in Eriksen's first-half absence. (5/10)

Attack

Harry Kane: Was kept quiet for long spells by a good defensive performance from West Ham, yet he always seems to have a say in the match. Hit the post, had a goal disallowed, won a penalty and scored the late equaliser despite being second best in his personal duels with the defenders. (7/10)

Substitutes

Christian Eriksen: A surprise exclusion from the starting XI, but came on at half time to add some more creativity to the attack. His introduction did not change much, but he did help to build pressure late on. (6/10)

Roberto Soldado: Quiet for much of his 30-minute cameo but did force a smart stop from Adrian with a snapshot from inside the box. (6/10)

Nacer Chadli: Introduced in the final 10 minutes and helped Spurs to complete the turnaround. (6/10)

WEST HAM

Goal

Adrian: A mixed bag. Should have done better with Rose's goal, but also made fine stops to keep out Soldado and Bentaleb, as well as Kane's penalty. Was unfortunate to see the rebound fall straight back to the striker. (7/10)

Defence

Carl Jenkinson: Kept Lamela quiet for long spells, although that was not the most difficult of tasks today. Solid display, yet nothing spectacular from the Arsenal loanee. (6/10)

James Tomkins: Defended against Kane very well, with the exception of one moment when he allowed the Tottenham man in behind. Unfortunate not to see his efforts rewarded with a win. (7/10)

Winston Reid: Dealt with the threat of Kane as well as anyone has since the striker's breakthrough into the Spurs team. Barely put a foot wrong all game in a very impressive display. (8/10)

Aaron Cresswell: A real threat down the left in the first half especially, providing the assist for Kouyate and another chance for Valencia. Never neglected his defensive duties either. (8/10)

Midfield

Alex Song: Ruined a good performance by giving away the late penalty. Helped West Ham to win the midfield battle, but his challenge on Kane was clumsy, needless and cost his side victory. (6/10)

Cheikhou Kouyate: Our man of the match. Was imperious in the middle of the park, breaking up Tottenham attacks and launching breaks for his own side. Opened the scoring with a thumping header that his fine performance deserved. (8/10)

Mark Noble: Superb in possession and every bit as important to the team effort as the likes of Kouyate, Reid and the front two. Was taken off early to avoid a red card having escaped a second yellow by the skin of his teeth just moments before. Had he stayed on, West Ham may well have won this match. (7/10)

Stewart Downing: Not as involved as his fellow midfielders, but still put in a decent performance. (6/10)

Attack

Diafra Sakho: Never stopped running and must be a nightmare for defenders to play against. Somehow squeezed in a goal from a very tight angle and did not give Spurs a moment of peace. (8/10)

Enner Valencia: Joined Sakho in hustling and harrying the Tottenham defence at every available opportunity. His work rate makes things so difficult for the opposition. (7/10)

Substitutes

Carlton Cole: Replaced Noble with a little over 20 minutes left but did not finish the match due to a pulled hamstring. (6/10)

Matt Jarvis: Came on for Valencia with 15 minutes remaining and took the pressure off his side at times, but could not prevent the Spurs comeback. (6/10)

James Collins: Brought on for the injured Cole in the 87th minute to provide an extra body in defence and protect the lead, to no avail. (6/10)
