14/05/2017 Match of the Day 2

Well, the title's won but tonight we'll bring

you a huge game at the bottom, the race for Champions League

places, Save of the Season and the farewell to White Hart Lane.

Jermaine Jenas played there for eight years.

And we're also joined by former Everton midfielder Leon Osman.

We begin at Selhurst Park and two of the three teams still in danger

of relegation at the start of the day.

Swansea's victory yesterday had left Hull needing

A nerve shredding 90 minutes lies ahead for these clubs, at one point

will do this for Palace and Hull winning would take this to the final

day, defeat means relegation and a draw leaves them all but down.

Crystal Palace boosted by the return of two walking wounded, James

Tomkins returns to shore up the leaky defence, Yohan Cabaye is back

in midfield, Joel Ward suffered a broken nose last week but starts and

Andros Townsend has overcome a sore Achilles' heel. Hull have a couple

of changes and will miss the creative spark of Markowitz. Michael

Dawson and... Dawson has started in the league since January only three

times. Hull with four points from the last 15 available ahead of

today. A mistake! The door has been left open! Wilfried Zaha has opened

that wide and slammed the ball home and Crystal Palace are head and we

have only played for two minutes! This is a nightmare start for Hull

in a match they cannot afford to lose. Here it is again, 32 macro

with the Netscape. The ball was slipped under Jakupovic. This is

just the start that Crystal Palace were hoping for. And Selhurst Park

is really rocking. But so are Hull City in a different context. Rocked

back on their heels. An awful moment on the day they cannot afford to

make mistakes. Niasse, there is some space, Hull

looking to respond quickly having conceded early. He was quick enough

to pick up on his own past, Harry Maguire... Having flicked the ball,

it ended up going to himself! Maguire getting underneath it.

Palace will be keen to get the job done today with a trip to Man United

next weekend. Puncheon, held up but not dispossessed by N'Diaye.

Committing a foul right underneath the nose of the referee. Crystal

Palace with the free kick. Here it comes, into the box. Ranocchia.

Behind for the Palace corner. Into the far post! So close to a second

goal, James Tomkins back in the team, Puncheon sending that over the

far post, just wide. Niasse against Kelly, Niasse has done well.

Elmohamady. But rising ball was always going over the bar. This is a

bit better from Hull but in the end, there was no save to make for Wayne

Hennessey. Zaha to get behind Robertson.

He has got some support from Ward. Curling invitingly into the six yard

box but Michael Dawson was there. He was after a handball against Zaha,

that was not given and that was what he was moaning about. Hull have a

poor record at facing set plays. Christian Benteke makes it two! That

is a long way back from Marco Silva's side. Benteke with his 17th

goal of the season. Big, tall, powerful and he got up ahead of

Harry Maguire. Crystal Palace have a commanding first-half lead with ten

minutes to go until half-time. Premier League survival is very much

on the cards for Crystal Palace. Hull are staring straight down the

barrel of relegation. Into Grosicki. Niasse chasing and he was brought

down by Cabaye. He will get booked for that. He did not give the

referee any choice but to reach for his book. Can Hull get something to

give themselves a foothold? Gets a little deflection. They were

claiming handball as the ball went into the penalty area. Grosicki,

clearly that was handball! Wonder Hull reclaiming VAT. If it stays

like this, Hull are relegated today. -- no wonder Hull were claiming

that. This is better from Hull. Behind off Tomkins for the corner.

Not a good one, headed away. Grosicki gets his second chance and

that was headed away by Ward from underneath the crossbar. Maloney did

not have the height to reach the ball, Ward puts it behind. Nothing

has gone right for Hull today, and this is a big day for them, they

badly need a goal. Here is Clucas. What sort of delivery can he come up

with? That was a great chance for Bowen. James Tomkins heading that

clear. This is a good spell for the visiting side and they need to take

advantage. Elmohamady, once more, off the head of Kelly. Collected by

Benteke and Palace can sweep forward. N'Diaye able to get in

ahead of Zaha. Watch number 29, completely unmarked as the ball came

over. I have to say when Hull beat Middlesbrough 4-2 last month, three

wins from four matches, they did look like they had the momentum

behind them and they could stay in the Premier League. The clearance

from Kelly. Only as far as Grosicki. The header from Schlupp. Twice.

Benteke. He has support. Schlupp powering into the penalty area and

the challenge by Dawson, penalty for Crystal Palace. Yellow card for

Michael Dawson. Palace's survival and Hull's relegation will be

potentially confirmed in the next few minutes with this penalty kick.

Yes! 3-0. Game, set and match. Palace are safe, Hull heading for

the championship. Just over five minutes to go and Milivojevic

completes the job. Sam Allardyce has done it again. Clucas with the

header. Zaha. It might fall for McArthur, he has support. Van

Aanholt. 4-0! The substitute, Van Aanholt, with a cool finish. And

that just about puts a tin hat on the afternoon for Hull. 4-0. The

final whistle. Job done for Sam Allardyce, yet again he has kept a

team in the Premier League. Bitter disappointment for Marco Silva well

and Hull, on the day they were thrashed. They started badly,

conceding in the third minute and it did not get better. The

disappointment of relegation, having won promotion just one year ago,

Crystal Palace are safe, they will be in the Premier League next

season, Hull have fallen through the trapdoor. The final score -4-0. We

did not expect to win 4-0 but that was a class performance, both ways.

One completely nullifying Hull City's possession with barely a shot

on target for them and also, the early goals and the counterattacking

Palace in the end got us that 4-0 victory. We were nervous because we

knew how big the game is that once I managed to get through and scored,

it took the pressure off and we could play more freely and I think

we had control of the game and I think we did well. For me that is

the hardest I have done because of the fixtures we had to face going

into the last eight or nine games and to come out of those beating

Chelsea away and Liverpool away and Arsenal at home, when you see when

Arsenal have done since that factory, that shows how big of a

task it was for us and in the end, we have done that with one game to

go. Relegation is hard, hard feeling to express. It was a game we came

here and we knew we had to win and we have the worst possible start,

and you were chasing the game. Gerrie Nel and in the second half we

threw everything at it, playing risky football and we got punished.

Possession just for possession is not enough, we have to take the

right decisions and the right attack and the last cross and finish

because at this level that is a difference and in the first half,

they had two moments and they scored. You made a good fist of

keeping them up, taking it as late in the season as you have, do take

consolation from that? For me and my staff, it is clear we took a big

risk in our decision but it is clear that with the Premier League, we did

our best. It will go away and the group and come back firing because

we know the reward, the Premier League, the best league in the

world. Hull dominated possession in that

game. And yet, as Sam Allardyce said, Palace didn't allow them to do

anything with it. Marco Silvestri as well. I thought Sam Allardyce and

Crystal Palace set up perfectly for this game. There was so much

pressure on it and they played a lot deeper and allowed Hull to have that

position. But they didn't do anything with it. They never looked

dangerous. They never seemed to have a plan of attack. As the manager

said, it was just having possession for possession's sake. When this

ball comes into Clucas, yes, he is looking up, but there is a lack of

communication. Get it wide and get it in the box, make us look

dangerous. This passage of play fizzles out to nothing. That was the

process throughout the game. This was interesting from Grosicki. He is

saying, get out of my way. He is asking him to create the space. Now

the space is there, pick the right pass. He is fuming. He is saying he

made the run, I am here, give me the ball. That was the way the game went

for them after that. It ended up being a really

comfortable afternoon for Crystal Palace. Marcus and his Hull side

have put in the two with performances at the most crucial

time of the season. And if they weren't at it, Crystal Palace were

the opposite. They were at it. They were. They showed a real desire to

go out and get those points today. They were determined. Right from the

first whistle, they are in the faces of Hull City. And here they are,

picking up the second ball. And Zaha chases a ball that is not his. The

centre-half makes a horrendous mistake, but he guess that because

he is on the front foot. They won tackles time and time again.

Townsend was determined to make this ball his own. Here is something you

haven't seen much that season. Benteke making the ball his own. He

showed as big a desire as anyone today, and by doing that, he is

bringing his team into play. Schlupp wins this not once, but twice. And

he is off to make something for his team. He is committing players and

gets the penalty. If you talk to Hull fans, the positive for them is

that they stayed alive in the Premier League up until this point,

given how they were in the summer. Therefore, you sort of still want to

praise Marco Silva a bit for the job he has done, but it wasn't enough.

Is that how you would sum up their season? Exactly. I think Marco Silva

gave them a chance. If not for him and the business he did in January

with the players he brought in, they would have been way out. They would

possibly have done what Sunderland have done and been relegated a few

games ago. There start to the season was poor. They have not won enough

games away from home either. It has been a keen elation of things. He

had so much to do when he came in. If you look at his home record, he

didn't manage to make an upturn in their away form, but the uphill

mountain he had to climb once he came into the club, he ended up

selling players as well to bring in his own players and it was too much.

His transfer business in January was praised by the majority of people,

so it would be churlish to criticise him now. But if there was one thing

that went wrong for them in January, it was bringing in somebody to score

goals, yes? Definitely. They brought in Niasse model if you look at that

start, the teams have a real top scorer. Hull's top scorer left them

in January. That was the real issue. Time now to focus on

the keepers for once. You chance to vote

for Save of the Season. Ibrahimovic. What a ball! What a

save to deny Lingard. That is a really good, strong run. Terrific

reflexes. Aguero, and Stekelenburg has kept

out another one. He is having one of those days that goalkeepers dream

of. Ander Herrera to Ibrahimovic! Oh,

what a save! That was Schmeichel the noes to the left. That was a

brilliant piece of goalkeeping. -- Schmeichel -esque macro. He has been

a hero for Burnley. Away from Ramirez, and it is over the top. It

was tipped that way. Pedro thinks he has just put this one into the top

of net. Fingertips from Valdes, and needed. Oh, brilliant goalkeeping!

No wonder he is so highly rated. This ball was really moving, and he

needed a really strong hand to save it.

Hates it! What a save by Thibaut Courtois. A super stop that

preserves two points the Chelsea. If this goes in, the roof will rattle

at the London Stadium. Deflection, great save by Schmeichel!

Unbelievable goalkeeping. He had no right to save it. He has learned

that of his dad, no question. That is unbelievable. Good luck trying to

choose between them. To vote, head to the BBC

and we'll give the result Liverpool went to West Ham

with their challenge for a Champions League place

in the balance. Only a victory would keep their fate

in their own hands. At the London Stadium

was Alistair Mann. Jurgen Klopp is embracing the end of

season pressure, saying if you don't have it, it's because you have

nothing left to play for. Wins in Liverpool's final two games, a

Champions League qualification is assured. West Ham alleviated their

anxiety by overcoming Spurs last week in arguably their best

performance of the season. They have since lost noble and Kouyate to

injury. Two changes also for Liverpool.

It goes wide. Great chance and he knows it. He has not scored for West

Ham. I am not sure he has had a better chance than this to do so.

Coutinho is a player that can make things happen, and he does there.

The game's first corner goes the way of the visitors, but West Ham think

it shouldn't have. Difficult for the referee to tell an equally so for

the system on the opposite side. Liverpool corner. It is off the

underside of the bar! And it stays out. Matip can't believe it. It was

such an easy header in reality that having met it so squarely on the

forehead, he ought to have buried it. West Ham are in excellent

defensive mood. Three clean sheets in a row prior to today. That wasn't

a bad attempt by Fernandez and Mignolet with the element of

surprise from the man who hit it was almost caught out. That was a very

good save by Mignolet. Still not back to full fitness yet, Andy

Carroll. There would have been a sigh of relief among his former

employers. That was onside. A brilliant ball, and it is onside

as well, Sturridge scores! You just knew that Philippe Coutinho would

play a part in finally breaking West Ham resistance. And it was a

beautiful ball right through the heart of that West Ham back five.

Daniel Sturridge, once the flag stayed down, eluded Adriana and had

the composure to threaded into the back of the net. Sturridge keeps

just about the right side. It is a good decision by the assistant on

the far side, Marx goals. It is the fifth time he has scored against

West Ham United and Liverpool are eyeing Champions League

qualification. West Ham's corner. It would be a

real bonus for West Ham if they could level for this corner before

half-time, and they are going to! Or they ought to have done. How could

he missed that? Am not sure he knows. What a chance this was.

Goodness, and then the second time it hits the post as well. They don't

come much easier than that. Quite astonishing. An inexplicable miss

right on half-time. Origi hits it, and it is parried away. Sturridge,

still Sturridge! Couldn't quite wrap his foot around it. And again a good

stop this time to deny Lallana with his legs. Liverpool are looking for

what could be a decisive second within moments of the

second half. And another stop from Adrian. Three saves from him in the

space of 30 or 40 seconds. There is even a deflection on the way through

that made even harder. Sturridge couldn't quite thought his feet out.

Back it came again. Adrian kept them all out and kept the score at 1-0.

He was just explaining to his players the changes that West Ham

have made. I am sure they will have spotted it. And making adjustments

of his own as a consequence. Wijnaldum! Frame of the goal. That

time, Adrian was beaten. Coutinho, and it is in this time! Philippe

Coutinho with an assist in the first half and a wonderful finish in the

second, may well have booked Liverpool a place in Europe in the

Champions League next season. Middlesbrough at home next Sunday,

but it was this game away at West Ham that looked the trickiest.

Wijnaldum trying to double the lead, hit the frame of the goal. But

Coutinho, well, there was only one destination for this ball once you

allowed him that kind of room. And it was the corner of the West Ham

goal. Without doubt the most consistent performer today for

Liverpool. He is a gifted talent. After Wijnaldum smashed the frame of

the goal, Coutinho just drifted in and out, and then the accurate

finish beyond Adrian, to the delight of his manager. You can't say

Liverpool haven't deserved this lead, and those supporters are

absolutely thrilled with it. You feel 2-0 might be harsh but I am

not so sure. The deflection takes that out for the corner.

Encouragement for those who have come to the last home game of the

season. The corner from Feghouli. Mignolet gets something on it. Reid

goes down, clutching his face, play on, no signal from the assistant.

Reid is still flat light inside the Liverpool area, Liverpool allowed to

go on. And Coutinho might make it three! West Ham have had a man down

for around 40 seconds and the West Ham players and the manager are

furious at the play was not brought back because it appeared to be a

facial injury, Reid went down under the challenge from Wijnaldum.

Handball? Play was allowed to go on and to be fair to Liverpool is up to

the referee to bring proceedings to a halt and they are dramatically

outnumbered and Coutinho slides beyond Collins, something that into

the back of the goal. Coutinho, with his second goal, the third for

Liverpool, three points, Liverpool, Champions League reckons. Origi.

That was a good head from Reid, brushing the top of the crossbar

from behind the West Ham net. They still have to overcome Middlesbrough

at home next Sunday at Anfield but it does look like it'll be mission

accomplished for Jurgen Klopp. A masterclass from Coutinho today. A

different role. Here is Lallana. Sturridge. Do not underestimate his

contribution. That is excellent, the ball to Lallana, turned in by Origi!

It is four, Liverpool. They have been far and away the better side,

so many times they have been denied by Adrian, a couple of times by the

frame of the goal but they have still been breached four times, it

is his seventh Premier League goal of the campaign, he scored against

West Ham in their draw back in December. Sturridge played his part

in the build-up and Liverpool are closing the goal difference gap

between themselves and Manchester City and they might just be looking

at third place and not fourth place. Victory at home to Middlesbrough,

Champions League football? I am long enough in the business that the

biggest mistake you can make is counting points before you have

them, Middlesbrough will want to finish the season but this is

Anfield, we will be sold out. Everybody is working on this, the

first sentence the boys said in the dressing room, I did not have to

sit, one more game. After being so good against Spurs were you

concerned you may not reach that level of intensity when you knew

that you were safe? We talked all week about complacency and we wanted

to avoid it. And we demanded the players put in the same shift and

sacrifice and humbleness and dedication to the cause. The third

goal was very strange, maybe a penalty for us or at least he should

have stopped the game. And all that. He did Naughton the third goal came

in so those moments went against us but they were the better team. The

first goal was always going to be the key? Yes, credit to Sturridge,

he knows what he is all about. World class and the finish was even

better. In the second half, the magician came to the party, two

outstanding finishes. How good was Coutinho? Not too bad! I saw a lot

of good players today. But he was outstanding. And Daniel Sturridge.

What a player he is. The manager has shown faith in me and we have a good

relationship, the fans are in a different class. I don't have any

worries about next season. I am looking forward to the last game

next week. We need three points. And we will be in the Champions League.

That was a big win and a big performance in the context of

things. Liverpool did the job they needed to. You could see watching

the game that Liverpool had something to play for. West Ham

fizzled out. West Ham in a moment, Adam Lallana called him the

magician. And Coutinho had a slightly different role today? He

was sensational, Lallana is right but Jurgen Klopp went with the

diamond midfield and you are asking why? But Coutinho orchestrated

things from that midfield position and the players react when he gets

onto the ball, look at Lallana, if he makes that run, Coutinho will

deliver. He is saying, you know what, you go and do it today, you

either man. That is what I liked about that midfield, allowing the

main man to do what he does best and it was not just all the nice passes

and dribbling and the goal, but that. Releasing himself to have an

impact. With Wijnaldum two feet away. No, this is my ball. Look at

this pass. Daniel Sturridge was also in a different class. From the point

of view of Sturridge, this is what you want, Coutinho threading those

balls through. Players reacting in the higher end of the park every

time he gets onto the ball, we know he can do this, West Ham very

passive. It was an unbelievable display. At a time when Liverpool

needed it most, the pressure was on. With the analysis and Liverpool last

week, you have examples of Coutinho taking the ball away from Wijnaldum,

last week they said players got in his way and was not enough movement

up front. Is the difference today, it is fine being congested in

midfield if you have Sturridge and Lallana? The movement is important

but you also need the bus. Lucas is similar. With Coutinho, they will

say, you can run the show. If I am playing ahead of the Liverpool

midfield, if Coutinho gets the ball, he can find me. If Can is on the

ball, you will not make the same runs but if Coutinho is coming deep,

he can play those passes like nobody else. Slaven Bilic suggested that

West Ham were complacent. You suggested they were just not very

good? Where to start with West Ham? Slaven Bilic, criticised a lot this

season but his tactics were spot-on last week against Spurs and he tried

the same this week, they were tight and compact behind the ball. He will

be pulling out his hair at this moment. They are soulless convert to

help you set them up. If you are in such random bad defensive positions

as they are in that moment, Coutinho and Sturridge will take full

advantage and they did. Here is another incident. They could have

had a penalty. But the referee did not blow his whistle and if you look

at the West Ham players, just walking back, the Liverpool players

streaming forward, five of them and a man on the ground. Liverpool are

really carrying on and determined to score. If the referee does not blow

his whistle, from being a kid, you know that you play on. You are told

to carry on. Until the whistle. They have shown some real determination,

Collins trying to charge the referee and he should be shouting at his

team-mates instead and here you have Lanzini throwing his arm up.

Nordtveit does all he can. Again, they kept trying to get Liverpool

the ball back and it was an end of season performance from West Ham.

Giving the ball back to Liverpool. You're supposed to work hard to get

the ball back in the Premier League and from that moment, towards the

end, West Ham kept giving Liverpool the ball back. The new stadium has

been discussed so let us move on and the overall picture with West Ham,

are they better than last season? Have the signings they have brought

in over the course of the season improved them from last season? No,

I would say. Little things have baffled me, getting the Lancia go

when you know you will struggle at the top end of the pitch because

Carroll struggles to keep it for a large portions of the season and the

signings have not been good enough, Snodgrass is a good one, he will

come good for them but in January, he will take some time. How many of

those signings are playing regularly in the first-team? Nine players? May

be one of them or possibly two playing regularly and when you spend

that much it is to strengthen the team and not sit on the bench. With

Daniel Sturridge, in the summer, but you would be surprised, on the form

of today, if Liverpool let him go? The price might have gone up after

today! In this type of form, I love watching him, he is so clever,

always on the shoulder, what that does, as you can see, he is taking

risks and is slightly offside but it pushes the West Ham defence back and

they are thinking, he wants to run behind, when he does have a moment

and thinks, I will run behind, no, he creates that space to do things

like this, work some magic and have a shot but he has earned that space

by making those runs forward. I love this. Three massive centre halves,

he is clever enough to go on, I will not stand up against you, you play

with wingbacks, I know where the space is, I am running at you and

you are in trouble. This is part of his game, this is what we know about

being comfortable on the ball, great awareness, he can drop deep and at

times himself and Origi were linking well together, they should have

passed more between themselves but this finish, not starting since

January, cool as ice, at a point in the game when they needed that goal

desperately. Calming things down. Brilliant. With Daniel Sturridge, he

gets criticised for drifting and being in wide positions and today

was the first time since I have seen him play with Suarez when he was

part of two upfront and that allows him to drift wide because the other

centre forward has taken on the opposition centre halves and he can

drift wherever he wants and he is more effective.

Chelsea's win on Friday meant the title had finally gone

for Tottenham before the visit of Manchester United.

Instead, today was all about celebrating the old White Hart Lane,

as it staged the final match of its 118 years.

Archibald! Gerrie Nel! -- 2-0. He has done it again.

For the last time, Spurs go marching in to White Hart Lane. There will be

time enough today to dwell on the past and relish the future here is

the present. A draw would give Tottenham their highest points tally

in any season since three for the win was introduced in 1981, they

could be unbeaten for a home season for the first time since 1965 and a

win would secure their highest league finish since 1963. Even

within the context of 118 years of White Hart Lane, Spurs have saved

some of their best football for last. Pochettino makes one change,

Trippier is in for Kyle Walker, they have won their last 16 games here

but Man United have lost only one of their last 15 Premier League games

at White Hart Lane, Ringo makes eight changes to the Celta Vigo

match, three from their defeat at Arsenal,... Fantastic atmosphere.

Ever since the turnstiles were opened. Wanyama inviting for Alli.

And it is a corner to Spurs. There are Spurs legends almost

everywhere you look today. And there is one of the best, Glenn Hoddle.

That wasn't bad either. What a noise. Christian Eriksen to take

this corner kick for Tottenham Hotspur. That is 1-0 to Tottenham!

Wanyama with a towering header. Victor Wanyama heads to in front

that Iraqi head Tottenham in front. Manchester United caught out. Davis

had lots of space to curl in a tantalising ball. And Wanyama had

the freedom of the six yard box. Great header. He has had a terrific

season. He has been an unqualified success for Tottenham Hotspur since

joining from Southampton. That is his fourth goal of the season. That

was very close. A brilliant effort by Martial. He went for a curl and

nearly got enough. 118 years. The Tottenham team has seldom been

better and I am not convinced that White Hart Lane has ever been

louder. De Gea stood up well. Really good save by David De Gea, a

brilliant chance for Son Heung-min here. It rebounded off Carrick.

Didn't test De Gea as much as he would have liked. I think he is

enjoying it. And why wouldn't you? Manchester United at the moment are

in danger of being steam-rollered by a tide of emotion and supercharged

Tottenham football. They are threatening a second, Spurs, playing

with pace and venom. Smalling made the important block. Look how many

white shirts are in there. Kane got in front of them all. Look at Kane,

fantastic movement. It is their 61st match of a long season, which could

end in Stockholm glory and silverware.

Deflection on the cross made it very awkward. Dele Alli just couldn't get

it down. It's a really good save by David De Gea, because that

deflection on the cross made it so difficult for him. Took a massive

whip. De Gea did ever so well. Dele Alli just couldn't get his foot on

it. Caught it with one hand. Hands like frying pans! Good save by De

Gea. Good hand by David De Gea. Dele Alli smashed that.

Bailly gave him a shove in the back. Christian Eriksen to take this. 2-0!

Harry Kane. A predatory finish from Tottenham's goal king, Harry Kane.

It's a great delivery. Kane in front of Smalling, applies the finishing

touch. No stopping this from David De Gea. The pace is generated by

Eriksen, the finish is from Kane. 28 goals for the season now, Harry

Kane. It may be his last on this turf. It should be enough to

guarantee Spurs another home victory. Well, if Spurs did well on

Chelsea taking the title, they don't seem to have dwelt on it for long.

Kane had never scored against Manchester United before that touch

on the Eriksen's free kick. Chapter handball ignored. -- shouter

handball, ignored. Lovely effort. Again, just off target by Anthony

Martial. That is twice now. He has made Hugo Lloris really stretch and

twice, he has missed by a whisker. It would have been a superb finish.

Into the territory now of who scores the last goal. Oh, and it's in!

Wayne Rooney scores for Manchester United. Beautifully set out by

Martial. Rooney poking it into the roof of the net. Good play by

Martial. A well-planned dart from Rooney to get himself in front of

Jan Vertonghen. Rooney's touch then hit Vertonghen on the toe, but it is

Rooney's goal. Give Manchester United credit, there have been times

today, particularly in this roaring atmosphere, at which lesser sides

might have simply been blown away. They haven't. They are still in this

match. Good clearing header by Phil Jones. That certainly needed dealing

with. The it might have been going in, actually. Good defending. Marcus

Rashford for Manchester United... Big sigh of relief from the

Tottenham faithful, because they were in trouble there.

The words of Bill Nicholson underwritten large at White Hart

Lane. Ten seconds of added time to play.

Oh, Jones. Jonathan Moss blows his whistle, and it finishes in 2017 as

it started in 1899, with a Tottenham victory. That is it. Now the time

for the emotion, smiles and tears, not for what might have been this

year, which now belongs to Chelsea, but for what has been for 118 years.

From White Hart Lane to memory lane, the game's greats once tried here.

There's no place like home. At the moment, it is fantastic. We got the

three points. Happy, because we are second in the table. It is good for

the club and this group of players. The fans and the players will enjoy

the ceremony. Good performance with two big mistakes. Two set pieces.

Maybe down to a lack of organisation. The players are not

used to playing together, but a positive performance with a team

that is not a team. It is a group of players that we tried to put in

place to play some matches where we have responsibilities in relation to

the results, but matches we don't want to play. We have only one match

to play, and that is not in the Premier League. It was a dream come

true. I have been thinking about it all week. I just wanted to win, but

if I could get that winner and for it to happen the way it did was just

special. Can't wait to enjoy the celebrations with the fans and say

goodbye to White Hart Lane. We want to show that we have been improving.

It is moving in the right direction. Are you going to take anything from

the ground tonight as a memento? Yes! We will see what we can take

from White Hart Lane and keep in our house.

We don't know if he took any memorabilia, but afterwards, there

was a big parade at White Hart Lane. There was rain, sunshine and then

that rainbow. Some of the greats from the years came out to be

welcomed by the fans. Listen, domain, some fans on social media of

other clubs have gone, why are they doing this? They are only moving 100

yards. But most people would go, it doesn't matter who you support,

football is about great memories and great players through the years. Any

chance to celebrate that should be welcomed. I thought it was

brilliant. Yeah, it was done with class and quality. And it is the

right thing to do. There are fans that have been going to the ground

for years and sat in the same seat. They deserved it and all these

ex-players also deserve the opportunity to say farewell to such

a special place. He is still filming! You used to enjoy playing

there, Leon. I did. I made my debut there for Everton. I loved playing

them. I got three wins on the run down there, which I am not sure even

Jermaine had when playing there. It was a really good ground. And your

memories of playing? Great memories. The Champions League nights stick

out hugely forming, the 5-1 win against Arsenal was one of my

greatest performances and best nights. That place will be missed.

Is it going to be an exciting future? Oh, God, yeah. Look at what

they have been doing. I have been talking to you about past Spurs

teams. Our Spurs fans watching the best Spurs team that has graced that

White Hart Lane pitch? There are question marks that will come about,

but this team is a special team. They now need to go on and win

something to cement that. They have got the best of both worlds as well.

They are leaving White Hart Lane, but they are only moving nearby. The

feeling will be the same. When teams have to move grounds completely, you

sometimes lose a bit, but it is still White Hart Lane. Half the

pitch will be the same. The same pubs will be used in the same

training routes. They have got the best of both worlds. We could spend

a lot of time recruiting this evening, whether it be Hull or West

Ham. Very difficult to think of a better bit of recruitment than Spurs

getting Wanyama this summer. Well I would say he and Kante have been the

two best Help To buys this season. Last year, they highlighted the need

to go and improve. They brought Victor Wanyama, who Pochettino had

worked with previously. Is that important? It is what has helped him

settle in so quick at Spurs. He looks like he has played there for

years. He has been a dominant force in that midfield. The biggest thing

for him and the Spurs, when I think back to the game against Chelsea and

Arsenal and today against Manchester United, he has been huge in those

games. I think he is the reason they have finished the season so strong.

Jose Mourinho made it clear in his post-match interview and has in lots

of interviews that these Premier League games that matter. It is all

about the Europa League final. Is there a danger that if the players

continue to hear that, to get the momentum back for that Europa League

final, if they are as apathetic as they are at the moment, might be

difficult? He would be saying to the team, this

is your chance to play your way into the final team, prove that you

deserve that chance and he is sending them opposite messages,

let's try to get these games out of the way. It is hard to switch off

and on, it is very difficult. They need to start picking up form.

Onto all of yesterday's goals, and we start with that

Gylfi Sigurdsson on this free kick for Swansea. Swansea in front after

just eight minutes! Pickford came and did not get there. Olsen did

well. Carroll. Ki Sung-yueng. Beautifully found, Morton is onside.

2-0. Tremendous finish. Huge celebrations from the Swansea fans

on high. 2-0. On this side is Sane. That is the

pull-back is that goal is. Quick look at the linesman by David Silva.

They are protesting. The fact is, Man City are in front. There is no

suggestion of offside, is there? As it was, the offside was as marginal

as you could get. Sane! Goodness me! Penalty, surely? There is no

question about that. And Jesus finds the bottom corner. Beautiful

penalty. 2-0. He has not figured so much in the game so far, Riyad

Mahrez. Okazaki on his way in the middle. And what a goal! Tremendous

volley, Otamendi could not get to him. Leicester are back in it.

Vardy, Mahrez. Always dangerous when he gets on the ball like that. It

has to be a penalty. That was a careless challenge on the edge of

the area. It is all down to Riyad Mahrez. And he could change the

course of the game. And he has. Why are they appealing? Did they

encroach? Two touches of the ball, maybe? That is unusual. Yes, he has

pleaded with his left foot onto his right foot, playing the ball twice,

you do not see that often. -- played it with his left foot. Arsenal look

to make the breakthrough. Hector Bellerin. Olivier Giroud within easy

finish. With just over three minutes remaining in the first-half, Arsenal

have the breakthrough that their dominance and possession deserves.

Mesut Ozil. Sanchez. Return pass. That was perfect! What a goal!

Slicing through the heart of the Stoke City defence, what a pass from

Alexis Sanchez and a wonderful finish from Mesut Ozil. Stoke City

still looking for a way back. Arnautovic! They have got a goal!

Let us have a look. Peter Crouch, it has come off his arm. Bellerin. Into

Sanchez. He might fancy this. Arsenal lead by two again! Mesut

Ozil. Lovely pass. Ramsey again striding forward, causing problems,

Johnson sticking with them. It is four. His second of the match. The

race for the top four still alive for Arsenal.

Lewis Cook looking for Stanislaus, Ward! Beautifully taken by Junior

Stanislas. Such a superb, calm and controlled finish. Vokes have got a

goal! Burnley have levelled, seven minutes from time. It will reach

Fraser. Here is King. King! 2-1, Bournemouth. Framingham appealed in

vain for offside and Josh King keeps on scoring goals.

-- Birmingham Hippodrome in vain. Gibson looking to close it down. The

triggers! They get the opening goal just before half-time. Simple yet

perfect in execution. Nicely worked. Nathan Redmond. With the shot! And

that might just seal things for Southampton. Perfect finish. Into

the top corner. Bertrand. Wrong. The referee says penalty kick. For that

foul by Brad Guzan on Shane Long. He has nested! -- missed it. That is a

dangerous one. Patrick Banford. There's another Monday Match

of the Day tomorrow evening. It's really Chelsea's homecoming

as champions as they play And there are three live

commentaries on 5 Live this week, beginning with Manchester City v

West Brom on Tuesday. Right, here's the result

of Save of the Season. This is how things pan out on the

vote on the BBC sport website. Jordan Pickford in third with 15%,

Kasper Schmeichel in second place with 26% and the winner, Tom Heaton

from Burnley. Ferreira quickly to Ibrahimovic. And what a save! That

was like Schmeichel. Brilliant piece of goalkeeping. He has been a hero

for Burnley. And here is the Premier League.

Spurs are now guaranteed to finish second this season

Liverpool are up to third and know a win in next weekend's season

finale against Middlesbrough will guarantee their Champions

Hull's heavy defeat at Crystal Palace saw them relegated

This is the best of the season of 2 Good 2 Bad. The worst throw-in...

Matt Lowton. The worst goalkick... The worst

header... Chris Smalling! And the worst corner, Charlie Adam! That

will please Mark Hughes! The best of the post-match interviews. I am just

desperately disappointed we have lost today. How were you feeling

when they scored? Good! They scored? Not good! You have a stain on that.

Chocolate? Too much chocolate! The best recovery from injury this

season. That came from Azpilicueta at Bournemouth. Watch this. I'm all

right! The best goal celebration for a non-goal from Firmino. And look

when he realises! The most frightened goal celebration from

Jesse Lingard! And our favourite supporter of the season... Even

though they were losing, did not want to watch Sunderland for only

one minute more! Thank you very much.

And that's it for Match of the Day 2 this season.

Another campaign that has seen us put ourselves through it week in,

week out because we can't help but love our clubs.

It has been some form for the champions. How far will they drop?

Fantastic strike! It just had to be him! What a goal! By Eden Hazard!

Absolutely brilliant. Lukaku! But is a cracker! Lovely play. What a save!

Absolutely brilliant goal from Ericsson. That is a superb goal.

Pedro scorers for Chelsea! What a goal!
