This is the strange and expect to tail of some very, very clever | :00:55. | :01:05. | |
foxes. Early on in the hunting season, people said they had little | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
more going for them then team spirit and a strong instinct for survival. | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
But fighting and beating Eagles and Toffees set them up nicely. After | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
all, hadn't they blown away the blues? As the season on folded, with | :01:21. | :01:27. | |
the Gunners not bothering them, the only people chasing the Foxes | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
Walcott cross. Cox was chasing Foxes? Well, I did say it was a | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
story. But with the Foxes doing well against Eagles and Black Cats, hope | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
was in the air, and so were the Foxes. But suddenly it didn't look | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
so easy. Farmer Hamas stopped them in their tracks. -- farmer hammer. | :01:47. | :01:56. | |
Then it was Foxes up against Swans. As you might expect, put a fox up | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
against a sworn, and there is only one winner. Well, all through | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
history, Foxes and up outwitting everyone, and it looks as if it is | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
the same this time. But who would have predicted it? | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
Leicester's title charge has been the story the season, | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
and it's no different in tonight's show. | :02:17. | :02:18. | |
We'll have their match against Manchester United, | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
plus Southampton v Man City, Swansea v Liverpool, | :02:21. | :02:22. | |
Saturday's action, and April's Goal Of The Month, | :02:23. | :02:24. | |
All in the company of Alan Shearer and Martin Keown, both title | :02:25. | :02:31. | |
winners, so they know what it's like to lift that trophy. | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
So, first to Old Trafford, where Leicester knew a win today | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
would secure them the title and defy the odds, as they have | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
Is this the day when the most unlikely title triumph of all time | :02:42. | :02:57. | |
is confirmed? Leicester City on the verge of being England's first new | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
champions since Nottingham Forest 38 years ago. They will have to earn | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
it, though. Manchester United have their own top four motivations. | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
Their line-up shows one change from last week and's semifinals as | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
Antonio Valencia comes in at right back. Midfield again for Wayne | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
Rooney, flanked by Lingard, who had alone with Leicester in the | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
championship only few seasons ago. Leicester are unchanged, Albright | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
and again making wafer gesture up. -- making way for Schlupp. And of | :03:31. | :03:37. | |
course Kasper Schmeichel, playing at his father's former home for the | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
first time. There are so many reasons why it would be somehow | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
appropriate for Leicester to clinch the title here. The Theatre of | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
Dreams, and the biggest dream of all could be about to become a reality. | :03:52. | :03:58. | |
Valencia is really motoring to the right. Just too high for Rashford, | :03:59. | :04:19. | |
and Anthony Martial sends it under Schmeichel into the net. Barely a | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
flicker from Claudio Ranieri. Fully deserved based on what we have seen | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
so far. That is why Valencia has been brought back into the team. | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
Still thinks he is a right-winger, and Anthony Martial kept his | :04:34. | :04:41. | |
composure. Christian Fuchs is not easily beating usually. Schmeichel | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
might feel a bit disappointed he hasn't kept that out, but it was hit | :04:45. | :04:53. | |
low and hard, Anthony Martial with his 15th Manchester United goal. A | :04:54. | :05:00. | |
little bit early to be biting nails. Claudio Ranieri's team have gone | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
behind in 11 games in the Premier League so far this season, and only | :05:05. | :05:05. | |
lost three of them. Rojo's lip, and Fellaini is waiting. | :05:06. | :05:24. | |
That is a super save by Schmeichel. He got down really smartly there. It | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
could so easily have been 2-0 Manchester United. What a good save | :05:31. | :05:38. | |
from Kasper Schmeichel. Drinkwater, Mauresmo. | :05:39. | :05:53. | |
Drinkwater with the chip in, looking further ahead, and are level! There | :05:54. | :06:04. | |
is a beaming smile on the face of the Foxes' cap in. And every one of | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
those boys in blue will come over to the Leicester supporters in the | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
corner to celebrate. Morgan is being held, but he breaks free, he gets | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
away from Rojo and he puts the ball past De Gea. Leicester City's first | :06:20. | :06:27. | |
attack of any sort of significance in the game, and those supporters | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
believe that the dream is alive today again. | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
That statistic remains, they have still only failed to score in two | :06:36. | :06:42. | |
Premier League games so far this season, 0-0 draws at Manchester City | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
and Bournemouth at the turn of the year. | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
Loads of room left here for Marcos Rojo. Schlupp not close enough to | :06:54. | :07:10. | |
stop the cross. Valencia, and Drinkwater mis-hits. That has gone | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
high, up goes. Mawr and Fellaini is at it again. | :07:17. | :07:35. | |
Had that been spotted by Michael Oliver, Manchester United would be | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
down to ten men. Just a suggestion that his hair was being held, and | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
Tiwary acted with the elbow. It doesn't excuse the reaction. -- he | :07:44. | :07:52. | |
reacted with the elbow. It was Valencia's sliding block that takes | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
that over the top for the corner. Didn't have a lot of room to work | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
here, Leicester, but that is good from Arca | :08:02. | :08:08. | |
Simpson was caught in two minds, and he has presented the ball to | :08:09. | :08:20. | |
Lingard. Lingard is through on goal, Michael Oliver thinks it was 50/ 50. | :08:21. | :08:28. | |
Simpson was thinking about the backpass, didn't want to go all the | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
way back to Schmeichel, when maybe he should have done. Does he hold | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
onto Jesse Lingard and impede him? The first Army Simpson's, Lingard is | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
back at him, and Michael Oliver rules six of one and half a dozen of | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
the other. If he had ruled anything else, it would surely have been a | :08:49. | :08:50. | |
foul by Simpson and a red card. Jamie Vardy would have been | :08:51. | :09:08. | |
desperate to play today, of course, but this is his second of his two | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
match ban. He might hope to be the ultimate power at the King Power | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
next weekend. And Mahrez feels that he was brought | :09:21. | :09:43. | |
down. When you look from that angle, that last swing of the leg from Rojo | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
makes it a little more debatable in Leicester's favour. And Rooney will | :09:49. | :10:03. | |
find Marcus Rashford once more. He was held back just for a second by | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
Danny Drinkwater. And now his name enters Michael Oliver's notebook. I | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
do think you needed to do it. Rashford looked as though he had | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
played it too far in front of himself and out of play. They have | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
been ready to party for some months now, and it is nearly time. Simpson, | :10:21. | :10:29. | |
and Blind into closing down. Mahrez pulled down by Rooney. And Wayne | :10:30. | :10:36. | |
Rooney is going to be carded now. Definite booking, says Michael | :10:37. | :10:44. | |
Oliver. There is a push, and a drag back, and a reaction. I think he is | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
frustrated with himself as much as anyone else. Can Claudio Ranieri's | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
team find a goal to win the league today? Did that clip the outside of | :10:56. | :11:02. | |
the post? Smalling incredibly close to scoring. That is a great jump. | :11:03. | :11:16. | |
Mata. Here is Marcos Rojo, two's touch behind Martial. Can Leicester | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
break? Ulloa gets himself plumping down the | :11:22. | :11:37. | |
left-hand side, he had time to get it down, but then he sliced across | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
the ball. Just as Ulloa was poised, Rooney got hold of grey right under | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
the referee's knows. Look at that, and he is already in the book. That | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
would have been a decision from Michael Oliver to make had Ulloa | :11:53. | :12:00. | |
decided to knock that down to grave. And there was a hold outside the | :12:01. | :12:09. | |
box, Danny Drinkwater with the grab, he is already in the book, and he | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
has a second yellow card. Leicester are down to ten, and they are going | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
to lose one of their key players for next weekend at home to Everton. | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
Memphis gets passed him, and that is the grab. There is another debate to | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
be had, where did the grab take place? The ball is outside the area, | :12:29. | :12:35. | |
he might have been just in. It is a free kick not a penalty, but | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
Leicester are down to ten for the rest of this, and without him next | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
week. Just had the feeling there would be another twist before today | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
was done. There might be another one or two yet. | :12:47. | :12:56. | |
Has he diverted that? Schmeichel was alive to it, and reacts again to | :12:57. | :13:05. | |
keep it from Rooney. Goalkeeping that is applauded by Claudio | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
Ranieri, and indeed by most inside this crowd. Robert Huth thought he | :13:09. | :13:22. | |
had done the right thing there. Kasper Schmeichel, so alert. | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
WHISTLE It is not quite enough to get the | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
party started the Leicester, but it will be if their Blues brothers | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
Chelsea don't lose to Tottenham tomorrow. For United, not quite | :13:34. | :13:41. | |
enough is a fair summation of their Premier League season. It looks like | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
being all about Wembley in three weeks for them. At the very top, it | :13:45. | :13:51. | |
is over to Tottenham Hotspur. Foxes never quit, but do they get nervous? | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
Manchester United 1-1 Leicester City. First of all, we didn't come | :13:56. | :14:08. | |
here to win the title. We came here to make our performance because we | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
knew it was a difficult match. I would have loved to come here and | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
finish the game as champions, but at the end of the day, you come to Old | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
Trafford and get a point, and we have two games left. It is one of | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
the best performances of Manchester United this season. So then I said | :14:25. | :14:31. | |
also after the match to my players, it is a great match when you score, | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
and we didn't score the winning goal, and we were so close. How much | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
of a blow is that the top four Hopes? It is going to be difficult | :14:42. | :14:49. | |
now. We just have to do our job and try to take maximum points from our | :14:50. | :14:52. | |
next few games, and see where that takes us. How did you see the Danny | :14:53. | :14:58. | |
Drinkwater red card? It wasn't in my opinion, but I accept the decision | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
of the referees. The referees are part of the match, and that is OK | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
for me. So do you accept the fact that Marouane Fellaini was perhaps a | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
little lucky to stay on the field after what looked like an elbow one | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
Robert Huth? Yes, but if the referee didn't see it, it is OK. He can be | :15:17. | :15:24. | |
on the foul of half against Delaney, because if I grab you, what you | :15:25. | :15:31. | |
doing, then? Shall I do it? You are OK! That is also a penalty, because | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
it is not in the books that somebody has to grab with the hair, and then | :15:37. | :15:48. | |
put it behind. And only in masochism, then it is allowed. | :15:49. | :15:55. | |
Let us move swiftly on from that final comment. Spurs need to beat | :15:56. | :16:02. | |
Chelsea on Monday otherwise it will be Lester's title. | :16:03. | :16:09. | |
Leicester deserved the point. A fair result, United dominated for the | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
first 20 minutes, causing problems, probably the best I've seen them the | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
way they move the ball. Credit to Leicester, they showed great | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
character. A key moment was the fantastic save from Schmeichel. | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
They are fighters. They went down to an early goal and they showed they | :16:30. | :16:36. | |
could be champions. Not done yet. Lots of debatable incidences. | :16:37. | :16:43. | |
Let us start with Fellaini. Both going for the ball, still | :16:44. | :16:52. | |
together there. You can understand from the referee's position why he | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
doesn't see it because the ball is wide. They come together, scrapping. | :16:57. | :17:05. | |
Fellaini without a doubt we'll get charged for use of the elbow, | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
aggressive. Huth can expect a call from the FA for pulling the hair. | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
That is blatant from Delaney and Huth. | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
They happen at the same time. There has to be consistency. If Dele | :17:22. | :17:27. | |
Alli is punished, then without a doubt they must look at that. | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
Definite for Fellaini, probable, Huth. | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
They are physical players, Fellaini, there is a lot of force, but he is | :17:38. | :17:43. | |
reacting. Simpson and Lingard? Danny Simpson | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
was having a different -- difficult time. He was overplaying. He just | :17:49. | :17:56. | |
about got away with it. Schmeichel had a brilliant position, look how | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
high up he was. Schmeichel's position helps. | :18:02. | :18:07. | |
I agree, I don't think that was a foul. | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
Should Leicester have had a penalty? Definitely, I don't know how the | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
referee did not give that. He tricks him into a mistake. Goes inside, | :18:18. | :18:23. | |
down the outside. He leaves his leg there. On a close around all, you | :18:24. | :18:29. | |
see him flick up and catch him. From here, you can see. The referee | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
has a great view. Michael Oliver. Is he looking at upper body rather | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
than the foot? He caught him definitely. | :18:41. | :18:48. | |
Drinkwater and the yellow cards. The referee got that right, it is a | :18:49. | :18:54. | |
yellow card. It is silly, he is going nowhere. Yes, a yellow card | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
but it should be a penalty. We are talking millimetres. He gives a free | :19:00. | :19:03. | |
kick. It is impossible for the referee to see that. His foot is on | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
the line which means he is in the box. I understand why he gave a free | :19:10. | :19:17. | |
kick. I am certain he can't be 100%. He can't guess. If he is not sure, | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
don't give it. It is a yellow card. | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
But he is not sure of the position. The view we have come his foot is on | :19:28. | :19:32. | |
the line, it should have been a penalty. | :19:33. | :19:39. | |
If Leicester are all right with two yellow cards, with their frustration | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
be it might be one rule for their player, one fall Wayne Rooney? | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
Wayne Rooney got away with it today. Three minutes after the Simpson | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
incident. He is frustrated. That is a foul and he doesn't get a yellow | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
card fortunately, it should have been. | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
It is high. Out of control. That one, founding, moaning at the | :20:02. | :20:10. | |
referee, the linesman. It is a foul, he pulls him back, Michael Oliver | :20:11. | :20:16. | |
says he pulls him back, and he backed chats. You can understand the | :20:17. | :20:19. | |
yellow card. The referee was fed up with him. | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
He got away with that. If the referee sees that, it should have | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
been a yellow card. He pulled him back and he got away with it. | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
He is fortunate. The referee is caught by the ball and doesn't see | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
the challenge. He did well midfield today, Wayne | :20:39. | :20:46. | |
Rooney. On the football, arguably, the | :20:47. | :20:49. | |
biggest moment for Leicester was when they were 1-0 down. | :20:50. | :20:56. | |
A brilliant save from Schmeichel. A game changer. To the back post, | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
Lingard, to his left hand side, strong hand to keep it out. | :21:03. | :21:08. | |
2-0. A different story. Three minutes after, lest they get their | :21:09. | :21:11. | |
goal. A key moment. His first appearance | :21:12. | :21:18. | |
back following in his father's footsteps. | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
On tactics, Claudio Ranieri said maybe they suffered with Jamie Vardy | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
because they didn't have that outlet. | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
A different story when you are at home to Swansea. Today, they | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
struggled, away, against a better team. A key feature for Leicester is | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
their counterattack. When they get the ball, first is to ease the | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
pressure, can they go in behind? Look up, you see a Ulloa who is not | :21:46. | :21:53. | |
as quick as Vardy, he has different qualities. The first half, time and | :21:54. | :21:59. | |
again, a Ulloa and orcas Ake, no one there to run in behind. The ball | :22:00. | :22:06. | |
goes, it is constantly coming back, which it was in the first half. | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
Defending, trying to help into midfield. It comes into Drinkwater, | :22:11. | :22:18. | |
he goes to take it forward, no one is there. The goal went back to -- | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
ball went back to the keeper. The pressure is on Spurs, by next | :22:24. | :22:29. | |
Saturday, Leicester may already be champions. | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
Spurs can sit back. It took a lot out of the Leicester players. | :22:34. | :22:42. | |
They will be hoping Spurs can't do it, and Chelsea do the business for | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
them. It will be very much won by Leicester. | :22:49. | :22:50. | |
We heard from the Chelsea players last weekend. | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
I think they will be trying. You can follow the title race | :22:55. | :23:00. | |

Goal Of The Month. COMMENTATOR: He has done well. Kane, | :23:19. | :23:47. | |
brilliant goal! Look at that from Kane, fantastic. | :23:48. | :23:56. | |
Kolarov, what a goal! Wonderful finish from Aleksandar Kolarov, with | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
almost the last kick of the game. Townsend inside. Great goal. Andros | :24:02. | :24:32. | |
Townsend has been Newcastle's brightest spot and has scored the | :24:33. | :24:33. | |
best goal of the game yet. Dangerous, and into the back of the | :24:34. | :24:51. | |
net. The little backheel flick from Steve Cook, from Bournemouth. | :24:52. | :24:59. | |
That is a lovely piece of skill, on the counter. Perfect weight on the | :25:00. | :25:09. | |
pass. Nasri. In towards Aguero, it is two. Once again, Manchester City | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
have countered with venom and position. | :25:15. | :25:23. | |
Skipping around the challenge. It is dangerous. Cresswell. 2-1 to | :25:24. | :25:30. | |
West Ham, a brilliant goal from Cresswell. Great strike from | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
Cresswell and Schmeichel could do nothing. | :25:35. | :25:46. | |
Dembele. On his right foot, curling it in, brilliant. Once again from | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
Harry Kane who scores for Tottenham. His 26th Goal Of The Season. | :25:52. | :25:58. | |
Andros Townsend. How about that lets about that? Bent around the wall and | :25:59. | :26:10. | |
deliciously bent into the top corner. | :26:11. | :26:18. | |
Here is Andy Carroll with a chip in towards... 3-0, beautiful goal. | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
Great build-up. And a spectacular finish. | :26:25. | :26:30. | |

Next to the south coast where Champions League chasing | :26:43. | :26:44. | |
Manchester City visited Europa League chasing Southampton. | :26:45. | :26:46. | |
The Champions League semifinal second leg is three days away for | :26:47. | :26:59. | |
Manchester City. First they face a stern test against a Southampton | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
side harbouring European ambitions. A top four finish is not yet | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
guaranteed for Manuel Pellegrini. A group of place is still a | :27:10. | :27:14. | |
possibility for Ronald Koeman. Southampton showed three changes, | :27:15. | :27:22. | |
Vinay is preferred to Rodriguez. Clasie comes into midfield. Martina | :27:23. | :27:29. | |
at right back. Not surprisingly, Michael Pellegrini has made plenty | :27:30. | :27:37. | |
of changes, eight in all. Joe Hart, Otamendi and Fernandinho the only | :27:38. | :27:40. | |
started remaining from the first leg against Real Madrid. | :27:41. | :27:48. | |
40 years to the day since Southampton enjoyed their greatest | :27:49. | :27:52. | |
ever day lifting the FA Cup by beating Manchester United 1-0 at | :27:53. | :27:58. | |
Wembley with that goal from the late Bobby Stokes. | :27:59. | :28:06. | |
Great effort from the Republic of Ireland international, couldn't | :28:07. | :28:11. | |
quite squeeze it into the near post, Southampton quick to break, Long | :28:12. | :28:15. | |
quick to shoot. Manuel Pellegrini said before the | :28:16. | :28:19. | |
match he thought it was unbelievable the authorities hadn't changed the | :28:20. | :28:23. | |
fixture and moved it forward 24 hours. Real Madrid played yesterday | :28:24. | :28:27. | |
said they will have an extra day of rest ahead of the second leg of the | :28:28. | :28:32. | |
Champions League semifinal. Good play by a Nacho, excellent, | :28:33. | :28:40. | |
still going. Good save by Forster as well. Denying Sterling. The danger | :28:41. | :28:45. | |
is still not cleared, still with Nasri. Three inside the box. | :28:46. | :28:54. | |
Getting a free kick for that foul by Fernandinho. A Nacho battling away, | :28:55. | :29:03. | |
getting the better, look at the space for Sterling but he couldn't | :29:04. | :29:08. | |
guide the ball beyond Forster, the goalkeeper able to make the save. | :29:09. | :29:25. | |
Long is there, Southampton are ahead! Shane Long smelt half a | :29:26. | :29:33. | |
chance, and made sure when the ball came in that he would be first to | :29:34. | :29:39. | |
it. Real desire from Southampton, onside. Watch Shane Long as he gets | :29:40. | :29:48. | |
in ahead of Otamendi. Past the midway point of the first half. | :29:49. | :29:59. | |
And Shane Long made sure that his toe got there first, and he has now | :30:00. | :30:07. | |
scored in four of his last five appearances, and it is his second | :30:08. | :30:11. | |
against Manchester City this season as well, having scored at the | :30:12. | :30:16. | |
Etihad. Among those in the crowd, Lawrie McMenemy, who is there with | :30:17. | :30:20. | |
the surviving members of Southampton's FA Cup winning team of | :30:21. | :30:26. | |
1976. Sterling getting the better of Martina. Iheanacho is up for it. | :30:27. | :30:34. | |
Southampton getting the ball away beyond the outstretched leg of | :30:35. | :30:39. | |
Aleksandar Kolarov. Great running by Mane! 2-0. A wonderful goal on the | :30:40. | :30:47. | |
break from Southampton. And what a disastrous few minutes this has been | :30:48. | :30:51. | |
in the first half for Manchester City, but look how quickly things | :30:52. | :30:55. | |
unravelled the City here. Great running by Sadio Mane. Wanyama with | :30:56. | :31:03. | |
the initial ball forward. Just watch Mane in the middle of the picture | :31:04. | :31:09. | |
here, hurtling through the centre. Nobody noticed, and it was an | :31:10. | :31:14. | |
excellent finish, too. Tadic with the pass, Mane to finish, Savar and | :31:15. | :31:23. | |
2-0 Manchester City. Two goals in form here at St Mary's. -- city beat | :31:24. | :31:33. | |
in four times on the road so far this season in the Premier League. | :31:34. | :31:38. | |
In a spot of bother, not out of this game by any means yet. Here is | :31:39. | :31:39. | |
Tadic. Jordy Clasie, it falls for him, he | :31:40. | :31:57. | |
goes for the chip. Just wide. How close? Just tumbling away from the | :31:58. | :32:04. | |
post in the end. You would think a given their league position that | :32:05. | :32:08. | |
Southampton really need to try to win all of their remaining matches | :32:09. | :32:12. | |
if Ronald Koeman and his team are to claim a Europa League spot for next | :32:13. | :32:18. | |
season. They may of course be helped by Manchester United inadvertently | :32:19. | :32:20. | |
if United beat Palace in the FA Cup final, because that would take the | :32:21. | :32:28. | |
Europa League places down to seven. Iheanacho, Clasie. And here is | :32:29. | :32:37. | |
Nasri. And Manchester City have a foothold in the game. Just before | :32:38. | :32:44. | |
half-time, Kelechi Iheanacho. They haven't threatened for a long time | :32:45. | :32:49. | |
in this first half, Iheanacho doing the initial work, Nasri with the | :32:50. | :32:53. | |
ball in, and Iheanacho there to gobble up the chance the ball just | :32:54. | :32:58. | |
flipped up in the air in his general direction, but it is Southampton 2-1 | :32:59. | :33:09. | |
Manchester City. Delph, with time and space here for Fernandinho as | :33:10. | :33:13. | |
well. Southampton sit in a long way back inside their own half of the | :33:14. | :33:14. | |
field. Wilfried Bony, a little combination | :33:15. | :33:25. | |
here with Iheanacho. Much better from Manchester City. Iheanacho | :33:26. | :33:30. | |
getting on the end of that one, tip touring through and still getting | :33:31. | :33:33. | |
the shot away. A good save from Fraser Forster. That was a tidy | :33:34. | :33:42. | |
little turn away from Otamendi. Bertrand getting well forward, along | :33:43. | :33:45. | |
way to the centre, Mane in space, too. Southampton's Corner, the first | :33:46. | :33:51. | |
one of the second half for Southampton. Usual suspects up for | :33:52. | :34:03. | |
it. And it's in! 3-1 Southampton. Sadio Mane with the final to check. | :34:04. | :34:09. | |
And just as Manchester City had been coming back into the match in the | :34:10. | :34:13. | |
early stages of the second half, they concede for the third time, | :34:14. | :34:20. | |
Mane quickest to it with the ball finally in his facility, off the | :34:21. | :34:26. | |
bar, didn't quite fall the Jose Fonte, but again, the Southampton | :34:27. | :34:30. | |
forward is the quickest to react in front of goal. Southampton 3-1 | :34:31. | :34:35. | |
Manchester City, two today for Sadio Mane. Oriol Romeu trying to find | :34:36. | :34:50. | |
Mane. Kolarov got a bang there. In it comes off the head of Bony, van | :34:51. | :34:58. | |
Dijk! Tipped over the bar by Joe Hart. Nearly a goal to remember for | :34:59. | :35:06. | |
the Dutch defender. Midway through the second half now, the clock is | :35:07. | :35:11. | |
ticking, and City needed goal fairly quickly to get themselves back into | :35:12. | :35:14. | |
this one and key something from the game. Here comes Mane now, will he | :35:15. | :35:20. | |
get a hat-trick as Mac he certainly well! Mane lift the roof at St | :35:21. | :35:29. | |
Mary's, and Manchester City concede four goals away from home for the | :35:30. | :35:32. | |
second time this season in the league. They were beaten 4-1 at | :35:33. | :35:37. | |
Tottenham earlier in the campaign, there are 4-1 down here. Mane with | :35:38. | :35:44. | |
that Listerine pace, and Iheanacho upended inside the Southampton half | :35:45. | :35:54. | |
of the field. -- that blistering pace. His hat-trick goal, and many | :35:55. | :36:02. | |
of the personnel necessarily going to be starting on Wednesday in the | :36:03. | :36:07. | |
Champions League, this is a less than ideal start ahead of that | :36:08. | :36:18. | |
big-game at the Bernabeu. Brilliant goal from Kelechi Iheanacho, his | :36:19. | :36:21. | |
second goal of the afternoon, and one of real quality. Manchester City | :36:22. | :36:26. | |
haven't played well for the most part in this game at all, but | :36:27. | :36:30. | |
Iheanacho here with a wonderful finish. He scores Manchester City's, | :36:31. | :36:39. | |
and his, second goal of the game. WHISTLE | :36:40. | :36:42. | |
An outstanding game for Southampton, where the winners, Sadio Mane the | :36:43. | :36:47. | |
star of the game with a hat-trick. A tent home win of the season for | :36:48. | :36:50. | |
Southampton, ten defeat of the campaign in the league for | :36:51. | :36:53. | |
Manchester City, the final score 4-2. It was a great game, maybe the | :36:54. | :37:05. | |
best first 45 minutes so far in this season, and great football, great | :37:06. | :37:07. | |
goals, the final was a very good result. I think that we play on | :37:08. | :37:17. | |
Saturday, and think maybe I would've put together a stronger team, but I | :37:18. | :37:20. | |
think in this case, we had prioritise one competition, and | :37:21. | :37:25. | |
prioritise the important game that we had on Wednesday. But I repeat, I | :37:26. | :37:32. | |
think that I would prefer my full squad for the green everyone is | :37:33. | :37:37. | |
happy today because we played today, I think the team is good, and also | :37:38. | :37:41. | |
we deserved to win, and we are in the final, so we are happy. Still we | :37:42. | :37:46. | |
fight for Europe, and that is what we like, because that is still two | :37:47. | :37:51. | |
games to go, and you are fighting for something, that is nice and we | :37:52. | :37:53. | |
try it and we will see what happens. Southampton were excellent this | :37:54. | :38:02. | |
afternoon, but there were those on the defending side who might want to | :38:03. | :38:08. | |
criticise Manchester City's events. I am certain Southampton would have | :38:09. | :38:11. | |
targeted the weakness of Manchester City's back four, constantly trying | :38:12. | :38:16. | |
to keep their high line, but they had a field day. All afternoon, they | :38:17. | :38:21. | |
caused them problems, getting the ball and knocking it in behind, and | :38:22. | :38:26. | |
they just couldn't handle the pace of Long, Tadic and Mane. It is a | :38:27. | :38:35. | |
brilliant run from Tadic. You can see him pointing the finger, great | :38:36. | :38:43. | |
run, pace, determination. And if you look at this, Mangala, no pressure | :38:44. | :38:46. | |
on the ball, just drop off and deal with it. It is a foot race with | :38:47. | :38:50. | |
Tadic into the corner flag, and he doesn't get there. You should be | :38:51. | :38:54. | |
able to do this with your slippers on. And in the box, look at | :38:55. | :38:58. | |
Otamendi. He isn't even looking at his opponent. Unbelievable | :38:59. | :39:04. | |
defending. The determination and desire and hunger, 25 yards in front | :39:05. | :39:10. | |
of his own half, to run past all the city defenders. He does it, but look | :39:11. | :39:22. | |
at Kolarov, he is just jogging back. Absolutely unbelievable, if Mane can | :39:23. | :39:26. | |
get there, you can. But Otamendi is just too deep. It is literally a | :39:27. | :39:36. | |
1-2, Mane runs onto it and it is simple. Set piece, this next one. He | :39:37. | :39:41. | |
is quicker than anyone else, he's going to get there, he wants it and | :39:42. | :39:47. | |
you got it. Van Dijk is in a better defensive position than Mangala. He | :39:48. | :39:54. | |
just prizes out of the way, he is a huge man, gets his head on it, and | :39:55. | :40:04. | |
then Mane puts it in. Hat-trick. And it gets worse from Manchester City's | :40:05. | :40:09. | |
point of view, a superb finish, one-on-one, I bet you wish you could | :40:10. | :40:11. | |
play against that that four every week. Look at the back four. That is | :40:12. | :40:19. | |
on the line. Iheanacho hasn't got good control of the ball, so they | :40:20. | :40:22. | |
shouldn't be breaking forward in numbers. Has he not had enough | :40:23. | :40:27. | |
warnings now from Mane? Punished him again. I felt sorry for Joe Hart, | :40:28. | :40:32. | |
because he couldn't believe what he had in front of him today. Waller | :40:33. | :40:37. | |
Coman talks about targeting the Europa League. They will have an | :40:38. | :40:40. | |
interesting summer because we were talking a lot about clubs who have | :40:41. | :40:43. | |
been looking at what Leicester have done this season and said, we can | :40:44. | :40:48. | |
raise our ambitions. We will also have an interesting summer if they | :40:49. | :40:51. | |
decide to keep hold of their top players such as money and Wanyama. | :40:52. | :41:00. | |
And the recruitment of Southampton has been absolutely superb. Coman is | :41:01. | :41:07. | |
a manager now who has been highly regarded, and Pochettino was | :41:08. | :41:11. | |
replaced. They just keep going from strength to strength, and it is what | :41:12. | :41:14. | |
they do with that money from the sales they get, but I would like to | :41:15. | :41:18. | |
see them stick together, they will be looking lest thinking, if only we | :41:19. | :41:21. | |
could have kept some of those players together. | :41:22. | :41:27. | |
It has been a good afternoon for West Ham, who have had both | :41:28. | :41:32. | |
Manchester clubs drop points, and they will quite rightly be thinking, | :41:33. | :41:35. | |
we can still make the Champions League. And rightly so, because | :41:36. | :41:39. | |
Manchester City have proved today with their performance, they have | :41:40. | :41:44. | |
one priority, Champions League, and it is not top four Pellegrini hasn't | :41:45. | :41:49. | |
got a face what next season is, his priority is the Champions League. I | :41:50. | :41:54. | |
don't want this to say he doesn't care, because Guardiola has to take | :41:55. | :42:00. | |
over... The Arsenal game is the one between those two, and to win the | :42:01. | :42:03. | |
game it get out of Arsenal, I think they will finish ahead of Arsenal. | :42:04. | :42:10. | |
But if West Ham were to win their games in hand against Manchester | :42:11. | :42:13. | |
United, Swansea and Stoke, they can make top four. And they have been | :42:14. | :42:18. | |
the real surprise package this season, and City are looking over | :42:19. | :42:20. | |
their shoulder. Next to the Liberty Stadium | :42:21. | :42:23. | |
where Liverpool travelled to Swansea It has been described as football's | :42:24. | :42:33. | |
greatest victory, at last justice for the families of the 96 who | :42:34. | :42:38. | |
perished at Hillsborough. In Liverpool's first league match in | :42:39. | :42:45. | |
since the verdict was delivered, an opportunity to pay respect for those | :42:46. | :42:49. | |
who lost their lives and who were unlawfully killed on that terrible | :42:50. | :43:01. | |
day. Barry Devonside, who was at Hillsborough with his 18-year-old | :43:02. | :43:06. | |
son Christopher 27 years ago, and never returned with him. His is just | :43:07. | :43:15. | |
one story that Tibet -- typifies the painful stories of football's | :43:16. | :43:19. | |
darkest day. Matters on the pitch today do seem | :43:20. | :43:23. | |
largely academic in contrast. Swansea make two changes to the 11 | :43:24. | :43:28. | |
who lost 4-0 at Leicester. Income Amat and Jefferson Montero. Sam Wood | :43:29. | :43:34. | |
between the two legs of their Europa League semifinal, Liverpool make | :43:35. | :43:37. | |
eight changes to the 11 who lost in Villarreal. The three he remained, | :43:38. | :43:47. | |
Klein, Lovren and Coutinho. Swansea City have won just one of the nine | :43:48. | :43:51. | |
Premier League meetings with Liverpool, and they have lost the | :43:52. | :43:58. | |
last four in a row. Here is Montero. A nice ball, pics at Cork, and he | :43:59. | :44:16. | |
has Ayew Routledge. There are question marks at the end of most of | :44:17. | :44:21. | |
the Liverpool sentences. Where was the cover, a question of offside. | :44:22. | :44:25. | |
Lovren did well in the end. You did get the impression that Swansea were | :44:26. | :44:30. | |
battering on the Liverpool door waiting for the opening goal. And | :44:31. | :44:39. | |
here it is! Its scorer is Ayew, Friday night his partner gave birth | :44:40. | :44:42. | |
to a child, and a couple of days later he has the opening goal, and | :44:43. | :44:46. | |
you have to say it has been coming because Liverpool Art Verratti at | :44:47. | :44:52. | |
best, and they're defending has been anything but watertight. And from | :44:53. | :44:58. | |
the set piece, Swansea are in front, and Andre Ayew has his nights | :44:59. | :45:02. | |
Premier League goal. And it is a double celebration for the father. | :45:03. | :45:12. | |
Swansea born the last three home games 1-0. They have given away | :45:13. | :45:23. | |
another free kick. And a yellow card as well for Smith. | :45:24. | :45:31. | |
Just grabbing onto Routledge, Brad Smith. The marking from the last set | :45:32. | :45:42. | |
piece was all over the place, and again it is. He ought to have | :45:43. | :45:47. | |
scored, and he knows it. Liverpool just aren't picking up | :45:48. | :45:51. | |
their men from set piece deliveries. Amat should have put it under not | :45:52. | :45:59. | |
over the bar. 27 minutes completed. 27 years | :46:00. | :46:07. | |
without justice. Both sets of supporters wanted to pay tribute at | :46:08. | :46:11. | |
this point of the fixture. There are so many aspects of that day back in | :46:12. | :46:17. | |
1989 which resonate with supporters all over the world. | :46:18. | :46:30. | |
Again, Liverpool caught in possession midfield, here comes | :46:31. | :46:38. | |
Montero. A good stop again, low, to his right hand side, by Danny Ward. | :46:39. | :46:42. | |
Again, Swansea winning the ball, high up the pitch. Within seconds, | :46:43. | :46:48. | |
able to attack Liverpool. A good stop to deny Montero. | :46:49. | :47:04. | |
Cork emerging with the ball and going for goal, scoring | :47:05. | :47:13. | |
delightfully. Liverpool are just melting away here. The defensive | :47:14. | :47:20. | |
protection down the middle in particular is looking nonexistent. | :47:21. | :47:24. | |
And Swansea are taking the fullest advantage. Jack Cork's first goal of | :47:25. | :47:30. | |
the season, his first goal for a year, in truth. And, again, Swansea | :47:31. | :47:35. | |
winning the ball, high up the pitch. And going straight at Liverpool. And | :47:36. | :47:41. | |
Jack Cork bending it delightfully out of the reach of Danny Ward who | :47:42. | :47:45. | |
has already had a lot of work to do. But has been able to do nothing | :47:46. | :47:50. | |
about the two goals that have eluded him. | :47:51. | :47:58. | |
On it went to Sturridge, good weight on the pass, unlucky. Really | :47:59. | :48:11. | |
unlucky. A super move, he has a fabulous recent scoring record, six | :48:12. | :48:16. | |
in his last seven Premier League games and he almost grabbed another. | :48:17. | :48:20. | |
Swansea City haven't scored three goals in a Premiership match all | :48:21. | :48:23. | |
season. They must surely be thinking that | :48:24. | :48:27. | |
this is the day when they put that right. | :48:28. | :48:35. | |
Smacked away by Taylor in front of Fabianski and he caught his | :48:36. | :48:49. | |
goalkeeper in the process of clearing. He catches him in the | :48:50. | :48:55. | |
face. A Liverpool corner. Really threatening to find a way back into | :48:56. | :49:00. | |
the game now, and they will, with Benteke. It has been a | :49:01. | :49:07. | |
transformation in the second half. Swansea have barely expressed | :49:08. | :49:09. | |
themselves in the liberal half, it has been all Liverpool. 64th minute. | :49:10. | :49:16. | |
The way in which Liverpool conceded in a similar manner, Benteke has now | :49:17. | :49:23. | |
scored for them. Jurgen Klopp, no matter the circumstances, always | :49:24. | :49:27. | |
feels there is a way back in to a match for his side. | :49:28. | :49:36. | |
Play on, says Roger East. Montero. A good tackle by Clyne as he was about | :49:37. | :49:43. | |
to pull the trigger, Montero clipping it in. Ojo defending. Ayew | :49:44. | :49:50. | |
looking and scoring! Just after Liverpool had got themselves back in | :49:51. | :49:55. | |
the game, Ayew gets his second and the first time this season and | :49:56. | :49:59. | |
Swansea have three. Just after Liverpool threatened to come back | :50:00. | :50:05. | |
into the game and make it 2-2, it is now 3-1 to Swansea. They looked as | :50:06. | :50:11. | |
if they cleared the danger. Some hesitation, some inconclusive | :50:12. | :50:16. | |
defensive work. And Ayew scores. Double figures for | :50:17. | :50:22. | |
the season now for Ayew. Three goals in a Premiership match for Swansea | :50:23. | :50:24. | |
City. It was a surprise appointment when | :50:25. | :50:35. | |
he was given the job but Francesco Goodell Lynn has done exactly what | :50:36. | :50:38. | |
he was asked and Swansea will remain in the Premiership. That was a foul. | :50:39. | :50:44. | |
And a yellow card is coming for Smith who has already had one, and | :50:45. | :50:50. | |
away he goes. He looks up at the heavens in frustration. Jurgen | :50:51. | :50:55. | |
Klopp, a smile of resignation because I think even he will have to | :50:56. | :50:59. | |
admit that this game is now beyond them. | :51:00. | :51:03. | |
I don't think there can be too much of a complaint. | :51:04. | :51:18. | |
The corner came in and all the way through, is that a handball? It is | :51:19. | :51:29. | |
no. As the referee given that? Well, there was a claim of a handball | :51:30. | :51:35. | |
there against Sturridge. Then the shot went wide. I thought for a | :51:36. | :51:39. | |
minute he had given an infringement. A few Swansea fans but it had gone | :51:40. | :51:45. | |
in from Rangel, it hadn't, it is the side netting. | :51:46. | :51:48. | |
When you were brought in, the target to stay in the Premier League, how | :51:49. | :51:52. | |
pleased are you officially that it has been achieved now? | :51:53. | :51:59. | |
Yes, this is mathematics. Top of the table for us. A result very | :52:00. | :52:04. | |
important to me, my players, the club because today they showed they | :52:05. | :52:10. | |
are not on the beach but they are very focused on their job. And I am | :52:11. | :52:15. | |
very happy for this. How difficult are these games when | :52:16. | :52:18. | |
they fall in between semifinals like they do? | :52:19. | :52:22. | |
Usually I don't think it is so difficult because we change the | :52:23. | :52:27. | |
line-up. With this line-up we can play much better football. We | :52:28. | :52:32. | |
deserved to lose, they deserved to win, that is football on a bad day. | :52:33. | :52:38. | |
I don't know, for the future, now, I am happy for this victory today. And | :52:39. | :52:43. | |
tomorrow is another day. I don't know. I am happy now. | :52:44. | :52:52. | |
He has done what was asked of him, should he be there next season? | :52:53. | :52:57. | |
He was given one job to keep Swansea in the Premiership and he has done | :52:58. | :53:01. | |
that with two games to spare, he deserves it. I have a feeling he | :53:02. | :53:04. | |
won't get it. There have been good performances. | :53:05. | :53:11. | |
Today was one of the good performances. | :53:12. | :53:13. | |
Today they were excellent. There have been accusations they have been | :53:14. | :53:20. | |
on holiday. Not today. Much sharper, quicker than Liverpool. Having said | :53:21. | :53:26. | |
that, Liverpool were not in the races today, they were all over the | :53:27. | :53:30. | |
place. The set piece here, Smith and Skrtel | :53:31. | :53:37. | |
at the near post. Those two run, take Smith and Skrtel, which creates | :53:38. | :53:44. | |
a space for Ayew. By the time Lovren realises, it is too late. | :53:45. | :53:50. | |
Zonal marking, you have two attack the ball. Lovren. He didn't. A very | :53:51. | :53:56. | |
good header. Get him off to a good start. This young boy was not up to | :53:57. | :54:04. | |
the task. Taken off at half-time, the game was too quick. | :54:05. | :54:09. | |
But a very good save, he could be punished again. | :54:10. | :54:14. | |
They lose the first and second ball, Chirivella. Jogging back. Brilliant | :54:15. | :54:21. | |
finish from Cork. Absolutely superb. Lovren ducks his head out the way. | :54:22. | :54:28. | |
This summed them pull up. Lucas came on at half-time. He should know | :54:29. | :54:33. | |
Sigurdsson is there, takes too long. Swansea straight back into the back | :54:34. | :54:38. | |
four. Ethsham Ghafoor went down too easily. But they get themselves into | :54:39. | :54:43. | |
a decent position again but the ball came into easy. Ojo didn't clear it | :54:44. | :54:50. | |
again. Ayew got his second. Swansea deserved that three points, they are | :54:51. | :54:53. | |
safe. Brilliant. I have some 74 Jurgen | :54:54. | :54:59. | |
Klopp, he is not making any excuses. He is not. | :55:00. | :55:05. | |
Comparing them to Lester's fixtures in April, eight games, Leicester | :55:06. | :55:08. | |
have played in More four. They have been stretched. Thursday night | :55:09. | :55:14. | |
football has affected them. Today, playing youngsters, it did not come | :55:15. | :55:18. | |
off. Only three who started on Thursday. | :55:19. | :55:23. | |
The youngest ever Premiership team Liverpool have fielded. | :55:24. | :55:30. | |
Sturridge was in this team. He had an off day. | :55:31. | :55:36. | |
That is being polite, to be honest. He was left out midweek. This is not | :55:37. | :55:44. | |
the reaction they needed. He had an off day. Free kick, miles over the | :55:45. | :55:51. | |
bar. His touch was poor, his distribution was poor. He gives it | :55:52. | :55:57. | |
away. A simple pass, it should have been. | :55:58. | :56:05. | |
Again, touch. The only positive is he has not got | :56:06. | :56:10. | |
injured and is available. Looking to some. | :56:11. | :56:17. | |
He had a bad day, right? I said to you before, could he be trying too | :56:18. | :56:22. | |
hard? You looked at me like I said I supported Sunderland! Last week, we | :56:23. | :56:29. | |
heard they are trying to prove themselves upfront to Jurgen Klopp. | :56:30. | :56:35. | |
Maybe they are trying too hard. Does that make sense? Jurgen Klopp will | :56:36. | :56:42. | |
be judging these young players, as well as Sturridge. He also wants to | :56:43. | :56:46. | |
win the Europa League. He wants to plan the next season. He is looking | :56:47. | :56:50. | |
for reactions and he didn't get the right one. Football, not soccer, | :56:51. | :56:53. | |
Martin! The result of Goal Of The Month, and | :56:54. | :56:55. | |
2good, 2bad, to come after a look at Saturday's action, | :56:56. | :56:58. | |
starting in the north-east. Townsend. Bumped by Dann, a free | :56:59. | :57:21. | |
kick for Newcastle. For the first time, the Palace centre-back has got | :57:22. | :57:24. | |
it wrong. 57 minutes gone. Andros Townsend | :57:25. | :57:30. | |
with a free kick. How about that! Newcastle needed a | :57:31. | :57:41. | |
big win. Bent around the ball -- The wall and into the top corner, Andros | :57:42. | :57:48. | |
Townsend. Brought in to keep the club up. That might play a huge | :57:49. | :57:49. | |
role. Down with the header, and a penalty | :57:50. | :58:00. | |
is given, Crystal Palace have a penalty. Handball. Mike Dean, | :58:01. | :58:06. | |
absolutely no doubt. Cabaye corner kick, the hand went | :58:07. | :58:13. | |
up. He has been booed throughout his | :58:14. | :58:19. | |
return when he was once a hero. Saved! Darlow! Hero of the hour. | :58:20. | :58:32. | |
Newcastle stay in front. There is a chance, and the chance is | :58:33. | :58:55. | |
taken by Arnautovic. Cross listed in. The ball broke very kindly to be | :58:56. | :59:05. | |
swept home. Was that a foul by Peter Crouch? He did have both hands on | :59:06. | :59:08. | |
the back of Kaboul. Defoe trying to turn. Craig Pawson | :59:09. | :59:23. | |
has given a penalty. This could be Sunderland's get out of jail free | :59:24. | :59:27. | |
card. Into the feet of Jermaine Defoe. | :59:28. | :59:32. | |
Didn't seem much in it. What might this kick be worth? | :59:33. | :59:41. | |
Jermain Defoe scores, nearly took the net off. Sunderland level, | :59:42. | :59:47. | |
another massive moment at the bottom end of the Barclays Premier League, | :59:48. | :59:51. | |
another chance gobbled up by Jermain Defoe. He was never going to miss | :59:52. | :59:56. | |
that. Regimen, and Goode saved by Peta | :59:57. | :00:12. | |
check. First big chance of the game goes Norwich's wave. Petr Cech got | :00:13. | :00:26. | |
down well. Redmond hoping to get onto this, and he has, and he gets a | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
shot away. That is twice now Nathan Redmond has been denied I Petr Cech. | :00:33. | :00:49. | |
Clipped in by Bellerin. Danny Welbeck has only been on the pitch a | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
couple of minutes, but that is the difference he has made. A very sharp | :00:54. | :01:00. | |
finish from Welbeck, and that spells trouble for Norwich City. 1-0 | :01:01. | :01:09. | |
Arsenal. Every fan of every club wants a hero in their team, have | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
Newcastle got one in Andros Townsend? He has given an extra | :01:14. | :01:21. | |
pace, and added dimension, he has added goals and pace. And he has | :01:22. | :01:28. | |
been very, very positive, and he is very dangerous when he comes in off | :01:29. | :01:35. | |
that right-hand side, he can go down the wing and also come on the | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
inside. This is a decent save. He is fearless, that pocket there he can | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
either go on his right foot, or he can go on his left, and when he gets | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
onto his left foot in this sort of area, there isn't a better player in | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
Europe at the moment. If you know he can do it, can you defend? It is | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
difficult because he can go either way. That was a sublime goal. He is | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
playing his way back into England contention. He has been a favourite | :02:07. | :02:15. | |
Roy's before, and Royals loyal. He is up against Sterling, | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
Oxlade-Chamberlain, Walcott, they are not playing and he is, he is | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
doing very well. Shouldn't be discounted. And now here is the rest | :02:24. | :02:25. | |
of the weekend's action. It falls kindly Fergus Pyatt. Andy | :02:26. | :02:50. | |
Carroll is free, Kouyate is there, and it is his first goal since | :02:51. | :03:00. | |
September. Payet's delivery, and an excellent finish. A little touch | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
suddenly opens things up for Kouyate, he is away. I don't think | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
McAuley will catch him any time soon. A great chance... 2-0! On the | :03:11. | :03:19. | |
stroke of half-time. West Brom undone, West Ham on the break away. | :03:20. | :03:26. | |
Andy Carroll getting away from his man, it is imagery Pyatt, -- Dimitri | :03:27. | :03:39. | |
Payet at, and it is 3-0! Mark Noble has now scored four in the last two | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
matches. A great build-up and a spectacular finish, game, set and | :03:47. | :03:48. | |
match, West Ham. Westwood is with it, and what a | :03:49. | :04:02. | |
lovely header that is. It is a terrific goal, and Aston Villa are | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
in front through Ciaran Clark. It is his second goal of the season, but | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
his first in the Premier League since December 20 14. Abdi has very | :04:10. | :04:23. | |
carefully placed this ball, Suarez is behind it, and now Watford are | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
back on level terms. Ayew, he lines up the shot, and it is a brilliant | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
one as well. Aston Villa are back in front. Jordon Ibe -- Ayew gets his | :04:37. | :04:48. | |
seventh of the season. Support is arriving, but was Anya filed? He | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
was, and what kind is Anthony Taylor going to produce? It is a red! | :04:56. | :05:03. | |
Sissoko is dismissed. He was stretching out a leg. | :05:04. | :05:12. | |
Birdhouse, in towards Dini, and it is 2-2. Classic Troy Deeney goal. | :05:13. | :05:20. | |
The captain, the Birmingham City fan, scores and possibly rescues a | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
point for Watford. This might drop to Troy Deeney! What | :05:24. | :05:39. | |
a late turnaround at Vicarage Road. The ten men of Aston Villa cannot | :05:40. | :05:46. | |
hold onto their lead. And Troy Deeney with a double late on. | :05:47. | :05:55. | |
Leighton Baines, now Berkeley. Good footwork from Cleverley, a terrific | :05:56. | :06:05. | |
goal. Just the start to Roberto Martinez would have wanted, inside | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
seven minutes, Everton take the lead. | :06:09. | :06:20. | |
Pennington is inexperienced, and to a man, Everton fans and Everton | :06:21. | :06:34. | |
players turning towards the Assistant on this nearside, Daniel | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
Cook, but it is a cruel introduction to the ways of the Premier League | :06:38. | :06:44. | |
for Matthew Pennington. Gibson, Berkeley, shaking off Ritchie. | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
Looking for a Lennon's move, he is in behind Daniels, and arriving is | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
Leighton Baines! And Everton restored their lead. Leighton Baines | :06:55. | :07:02. | |
with his first of the season. Evertonians say he is one of us, and | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
he is certainly one of us today. Everton 2-1 Bournemouth. 2good, 2bad | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
to come after the result of April's goal of the month. | :07:14. | :07:24. | |
And here is how you have voted. Creswell's golfer West Ham and | :07:25. | :07:31. | |
third, with 11%, not a brilliant goal of the month competition from | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
Wayne Hennessey, the Crystal Palace goalkeeper, because the top two are | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
free kicks against it. Andros Townsend in second, and Payet for | :07:40. | :07:41. | |
West Ham against Palace. Payet strikes, and he is in! What a | :07:42. | :07:56. | |
goal! What a goal by Dimitri Payet at. | :07:57. | :08:04. | |
And next Sunday, we will have Save of the Season. | :08:05. | :08:19. | |
Full the one point separate the three sides fighting relegation. And | :08:20. | :08:30. | |
now here is 2good, 2bad. At Stoke, even Erik Pieters laughs at | :08:31. | :08:37. | |
Aurigny's defending. Bowen and Hughes prove you never lose it. | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
Nearly. And we have all done this. You can't show that! I'm | :08:41. | :08:56. | |
sympathising with her. That is a brand-new coat, as well. We are all | :08:57. | :09:03. | |
on her side. Thank you Ray much. We will have the best of 2good, 2bad | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
next Sunday. With Jack Cork taking a days between today's goal at his | :09:08. | :09:10. | |
last Premier League one, we thought we would have a look at those who | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
have had even larger gaps between their top-flight goals. Goodbye. It | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
is his first Premiership goal in the best part of ten years! | :09:22. | :09:32. | |
Simon Charlton with it! And it is Jamie Carragher, and isn't he | :09:33. | :09:40. | |
pleased? Whittingham, 1-1! Here is an | :09:41. | :09:54. | |
opportunity for Quinn, and Hull have one back. Their Mac the most | :09:55. | :10:03. | |
unlikely of goal-scorers. | :10:04. | :10:04. |
