Winning Debut For West Ham's New Coach As Hammers Shock Red Devils; Chelsea Benifits; Spurs Win

Three games Sunday in the English Premier League:

At London:

Alan Curbishley's debut as West Ham United manager was a shocking success as Nigel Reo-Coker tallied the only goal (75') in the Hammers' 1-0 home upset of league-leading Manchester United.

At Liverpool:

Chelsea benifitted from late goals from Frank Lampard (81') and Didier Drogba (87') as the Blues twice came from behind before defeating hosts Everton 3-2 to move to within two points of frontrunning Manchester United in the EPL standings.

At Manchester:

Calum Davenport (16') and Tom Huddlestone (24'-his first Premiership tally) provided the first-half scoring for Tottenham Hotspur as the visitors doubled up Manchester City 2-1.
