While this battling draw against a Crystal Palace side with their minds elsewhere proved terminal to his former club Wolves as it confirmed their relegation, Nuno Espírito Santo had to be satisfied with a point after Brennan Johnson missed the best chance to boost his former employers Tottenham.
Palace, who have now been involved in eight stalemates this season, were indebted to captain Dean Henderson for producing the save of the night to deny Konstantinos Mavropanos just before half-time, although West Ham struggled to create much else. Nuno will be disappointed not to have stretched their advantage over Tottenham to four points, although their fate remains very much in their hands with David Moyes’s Everton next up on Saturday.

LOOSDRECHT (ANP) - De politie heeft maandagavond het gebied rond het gemeentehuis in het Noord-Hollandse dorp Loosdrecht ontruimd. Dat gebeurde tijdens een anti-azc-demonstratie. Dat bevestigt de gemeente, die spreekt van een grimmig einde. Eerder hadden de gemeente en politie nog aangekondigd "niet te zullen tolereren dat personen de demonstratie aangrijpen om strafbare feiten te plegen of ernstige wanordelijkheden te organiseren".
Op het hoogtepunt zouden er naar schatting zo'n vijfhonderd mensen aanwezig zijn geweest bij de demonstratie. De gemeente spreekt van een vreedzame sfeer die langzaam grimmiger werd. Demonstranten gooiden met eieren en vuurwerk.
Volgens de gemeente heeft burgemeester Mark Verheijen de demonstratie laten beëindigen nadat demonstranten "zwaar illegaal vuurwerk op agenten richtten". Daarna ontruimde de mobiele eenheid het gebied rond het gemeentehuis. Er stonden toen nog tussen de tweehonderd en driehonderd mensen.
Rond 22.00 uur was het volgens de gemeente weer rustig.
