:00:16. > :00:21.COMMENTATOR: Just brilliant, just brilliant!
:00:22. > :00:39.COMMENTATOR: What a turn, what a goal!
:00:40. > :00:41.COMMENTATOR: Look at that. Oh, look at that!
:00:42. > :00:45.We've left Europe behind to focus on domestic duties.
:00:46. > :00:47.Yes, the Premier League returns after the international break.
:00:48. > :00:50.Alan Shearer and Martin Keown join us in the studio.
:00:51. > :00:54.We begin at Stamford Bridge where leaders Chelsea began
:00:55. > :00:57.They faced Crystal Palace, whose survival chances have been
:00:58. > :01:00.boosted by a run of three straight wins without conceding a goal.
:01:01. > :01:08.Commentary comes from Jonathan Pearce.
:01:09. > :01:12.COMMENTATOR: Eden Hazard returns for Chelsea after missing the Stoke game
:01:13. > :01:17.and the international break with a calf problem. They look for a 14th
:01:18. > :01:23.home win on the spin at the start of the title run in. Can Moses injured,
:01:24. > :01:26.Cesc Fabregas starts. Pedro will fill in at right wingback in a
:01:27. > :01:31.slight formation reshuffle. They have lost once at home to Palace in
:01:32. > :01:38.top-flight football. Times are are bet are for the visitors, three wins
:01:39. > :01:44.in a row. They are unchanged at the start of a very tricky relegation
:01:45. > :01:48.run in. If Zaha repeats his wonder goal for Ivory Coast in Russia or
:01:49. > :01:52.Christian Benteke his two goal Belgium form against the same
:01:53. > :01:59.opponents they could cause the champions elect problems. Black
:02:00. > :02:02.armbands being worn by today's players in remembrance of those who
:02:03. > :02:10.lost their lives in the Westminster terrorist attack. Showed too much of
:02:11. > :02:16.it to Pedro. Fabregas, beautiful diagonal. What a pass that is. 60,
:02:17. > :02:24.70 yards to Eden Hazard. Twisting and turning Ward. Support arriving.
:02:25. > :02:27.To the near-post and 1-0 Chelsea. The lead remembers ahead. Fabregas
:02:28. > :02:34.nipped in and scores after just four minutes. Just the start the leaders
:02:35. > :02:39.wanted. He's popped up with useful goals. He's in the autumn of his
:02:40. > :02:44.career, perhaps. He turns 30 in May, but he's still got aened woerful eye
:02:45. > :02:49.for a pass. As we saw at the start of the move, the timing run and the
:02:50. > :02:53.clip finish perfect. Chelsea 1, Crystal Palace 0. First goal Crystal
:02:54. > :03:00.Palace have conceded in 297 minutes of football.
:03:01. > :03:06.Benteke, stolen away by him from Azpilicueta. He gave it away. Pedro
:03:07. > :03:16.is there to slide in. Got an edge on it. Did well there for Chelsea,
:03:17. > :03:23.Pedro. Good vision. The ball had too much weight on it. Risky in there as
:03:24. > :03:29.well, really. Here's Zaha. He gets the shot away. 1-1. This man is in
:03:30. > :03:34.explosive form. Scored one of the international goals of the year in
:03:35. > :03:37.the international break. He's come back to club football, gets his
:03:38. > :03:44.sixth of the campaign. It was a lovely individual goal. Chelsea's
:03:45. > :03:48.lead lasted less than five minutes. Four blue shirts around him. Goal
:03:49. > :03:53.keep every's vision impaired. Would have seen it very late. He's in
:03:54. > :04:04.terrific form and has been throughout the campaign. Here's
:04:05. > :04:10.Pedro. Townsend got back there with them. It's their first goal in
:04:11. > :04:15.London derbies this season. They are going mad. Will get in trouble
:04:16. > :04:20.because of the flares. Look at this. Benteke on the break, Zaha is up
:04:21. > :04:25.along side him. Luiz socking him. Expecting him to miscontrol it. Zaha
:04:26. > :04:29.plays it back to Benteke. It's 2-1 to Crystal Palace. The leaders got
:04:30. > :04:37.off to the perfect start and it's all turned around. Sensational. Both
:04:38. > :04:41.players, who are in sparkling form for their countries in the break
:04:42. > :04:48.have scored for Crystal Palace. Benteke got a little bit of a lucky
:04:49. > :04:56.break. Back to him though, played in by Zaha. The dink, 2-1 Crystal
:04:57. > :05:03.Palace. 1 minute and 31 second between the goals. She had far fewer
:05:04. > :05:06.players way than the international. Throughout the club Chelsea had 32
:05:07. > :05:10.players away at all levels of international football. 19 of them
:05:11. > :05:16.were with the various England squads. The cross, Townsend should
:05:17. > :05:19.see it out. He didn't. Sloppy defensive play there allows the
:05:20. > :05:29.cross to come in by Pedro. It's steered away.
:05:30. > :05:37.Played in low and flat. Matic. Pedro is arriving. Big appeals there by
:05:38. > :05:49.Chelsea for handball or for a tackle. I think it's handball.
:05:50. > :05:53.Townsend dipped his arm onto it. I wonder what's going through his
:05:54. > :05:59.mind. 35 years ago today he bought Chelsea. 85-year-old Ken Bates. He
:06:00. > :06:14.certainly is the Godfather of modern Chelsea football. Football by
:06:15. > :06:18.Chelsea. Pedro. Hazard's gone wide. Pedro's made the run beyond him into
:06:19. > :06:28.the box. Here's Fabregas - oh, well played. Hazard. Comes to Fabregas,
:06:29. > :06:32.again. Costa, great reaction save. Cleared away Bia Schlupp. Really
:06:33. > :06:36.good stop this by the Palace goalkeeper. Fantastic pass again by
:06:37. > :06:40.Fabregas. Not for the first time in the game. When it comes to Costa,
:06:41. > :06:48.there's just a little bit of a slip. Hennessey had to react smartly,
:06:49. > :06:52.anyway. Fine reaction save. Flipped by Hazard, Costa, alop so. Two in
:06:53. > :06:59.the middle. Has he got a touch to it? Having a good game, Wayne
:07:00. > :07:07.Hennessey, pushed away the cross by Alonso. Made sure it went out.
:07:08. > :07:15.Matic. Almost total domination of the ball by Chelsea, but they're
:07:16. > :07:20.behind. Pedro. Here's Fabregas. Off towards Eden Hazard. Explosive burst
:07:21. > :07:27.of place, blocked by Hennessey again. Near-post block by Eden
:07:28. > :07:35.Hazard. Defensive work by Palace. How tired will they be come the
:07:36. > :07:47.second-half? Second-half? Here's Benteke. Not a good touch of in the
:07:48. > :07:54.end. Costa checks back. Goes to ground. Scott Dann got a good block
:07:55. > :07:59.in. It's not going his way at the moment. Not since Liverpool in
:08:00. > :08:05.September. Has any team gone away with kind of result from Stamford
:08:06. > :08:10.Bridge. Cesar Azpilicueta got there first. Fabregas. Good use of the
:08:11. > :08:15.ball. Diego Costa, a little bit of room. Good block, in the end. Great
:08:16. > :08:23.block by Scott Dann, who is hurt in the block. Diego Costa's has called
:08:24. > :08:31.the referee's attention to it. He saved his team here with the block.
:08:32. > :08:34.He couldn't get the shot away, due to Scott Dann's intervention. Diego
:08:35. > :08:39.Costa, immediately calling the referee's attention to this. Gets a
:08:40. > :08:45.bad press, Diego Costa, he showed sportsmanship there. Change of
:08:46. > :08:49.formation for Crystal Palace. They have gone to a centre-back three.
:08:50. > :08:55.Here is Hazard attacking that trio. First block in. Puncheon won that.
:08:56. > :09:00.Sakho. He looks spied are you on the ball. He is a decent passer of it.
:09:01. > :09:08.Benteke, good strength. Releases Puncheon. Looks for Zaha. In on
:09:09. > :09:12.goal, Zaha. A very good foot by Courtois. Not the greatest save he
:09:13. > :09:17.will make. In the context of this season it could prove to be the most
:09:18. > :09:20.important. A third glow for Crystal Palace would surely have meant
:09:21. > :09:28.curtains for Chelsea today. Big, long leg. Steve Parish made the
:09:29. > :09:34.decision to replace Alan Pardew with Sam Allardyce. At the moment, Palace
:09:35. > :09:40.are edging towards safety. Hazard, lovely balance. Costa, was there a
:09:41. > :09:45.push? The header goes wide anyway. Sakho felt he was pushed. The header
:09:46. > :09:49.did not hit the target. Look at his face there. He knew how big this
:09:50. > :09:53.chance was. I think he was being strong in there as a centre forward.
:09:54. > :10:00.The referee was right to allow that one. Here's Willian. Now to Pedro.
:10:01. > :10:06.Palace have poured players back through the middle quickly. Hazard.
:10:07. > :10:13.Fabregas. Good ball. Pedro drives it. Sakho. A side saving
:10:14. > :10:23.intervention. He's had a terrific game for Crystal Palace, again.
:10:24. > :10:28.Here's Eden Hazard. Azpilicueta. Could have got a shot away. Goes for
:10:29. > :10:35.the chip. Hazard made a good run in there. Still in play. Pedro. Oh,
:10:36. > :10:41.it's come loose. Costa can he finish. Sakho gets it away.
:10:42. > :10:48.Tantalisingly close for Chelsea, but they're still behind. Hasn't had to
:10:49. > :10:55.bite his lip too often this season. Hazard. Sensible ball, Willian.
:10:56. > :11:01.Fabregas, again. Hennessey blocks with his legs. It will not go the in
:11:02. > :11:09.for Chelsea. This is Wayne Hennessey's 11th save of the game.
:11:10. > :11:12.10 minutes of stoppage-time played. What a day this will be for Sam
:11:13. > :11:16.Allardyce and Crystal Palace and a victory would send them very close
:11:17. > :11:22.towards survival. We started the game talking about the potential
:11:23. > :11:26.threat of Zaha and Benteke if they could replicate international form.
:11:27. > :11:30.He certainly has. Man of the Match, scoring the first, creating the
:11:31. > :11:36.second for Benteke. Hennessey a hero in goal, with save after save after
:11:37. > :11:39.save. And Conte's team beaten for the first time at home since
:11:40. > :11:45.September. What a day for Crystal Palace. 2-1 victors at the league
:11:46. > :11:52.leaders. How big a win is that for Crystal Palace? Massive. I don't
:11:53. > :11:56.even know what to say. Just a crazy feeling man. We worked hard and got
:11:57. > :12:01.the win we wanted. You seem almost stunned? Yeah. Because, obviously,
:12:02. > :12:04.they are top of the league. They are playing really well. Obviously,
:12:05. > :12:09.no-one would expect us to come here and beat them at home. So... I can't
:12:10. > :12:16.even describe how I'm feeling. I'm happy man. It's disappointment for
:12:17. > :12:24.the final result. I think we deserve at least the draw. But this is
:12:25. > :12:34.football. We must accept this result. It was really hard against
:12:35. > :12:43.Chelsea. But I think we played with a big heart today and also our fans
:12:44. > :12:48.they give us encouragement. Today we play 12 against 11. Things have been
:12:49. > :12:52.going great this season. We go again Wednesday. Big game. We are in a
:12:53. > :12:58.healthy position in the league. The gap is there. We have a huge game
:12:59. > :13:01.now on Wednesday. A sweet three points to come to what are the
:13:02. > :13:05.champions of the Premier League, for me, and to actually win. Of course,
:13:06. > :13:11.for everybody this is what the Premier League is about. There can
:13:12. > :13:16.be a shock anywhere, any time and we were the ones who have maybe sit up
:13:17. > :13:20.this weekend and go it can wow, what a result that is. From the players
:13:21. > :13:24.point of view a well-earned and well-deserved victory in the in. Not
:13:25. > :13:31.sure everyone at Palace can believe it. Staggering, monumental gutsy
:13:32. > :13:37.display, Martin? Incredible. I was a Palace fan, sat behind the sofa. The
:13:38. > :13:42.defending was heroic. The goalkeeper made so many saves. When I looked at
:13:43. > :13:45.the screens it was one attack from another from an outstanding Chelsea
:13:46. > :13:51.team. They did everything right. To get the goals they needed it could
:13:52. > :13:56.have been a cricket score of goals for Chelsea, the chances they had.
:13:57. > :14:00.Hendrie be I keeps it out. Like this all afternoon. One player after
:14:01. > :14:06.another. Great determine aation. Dann comes on for Tomkins. He did a
:14:07. > :14:10.great job before him. Great block. Goes off injured, Dann, puts his
:14:11. > :14:14.body on the line. Every player was determined. Delaney comes off the
:14:15. > :14:17.bench. Good job they had so many central defenders to call upon.
:14:18. > :14:21.Another good block, one after another. Resilience and a
:14:22. > :14:30.determination. It's Sakho in there, for me, that is the one player who
:14:31. > :14:34.has gelled. Makes it look so easy. He is a real leader. Delaney. One
:14:35. > :14:42.after another. Players getting involved. Milivojevic is a great
:14:43. > :14:46.plus. Sam has done a lot of hard work. Ward, another one. He wants to
:14:47. > :14:51.get challenges in. Kelly coming off the bench. No, Gary, it was
:14:52. > :14:54.absolutely outstanding. What a signing Sakho is proving to be? He S
:14:55. > :14:58.if you look at the statistics since he has been in there. It say it is
:14:59. > :15:04.all. Sometimes you need a player that just pulls the club together.
:15:05. > :15:11.You've been a bit critical of Wilfried Zaha in the past, Allen. Is
:15:12. > :15:17.it time, because the Palace fans say you are getting it wrong about him.
:15:18. > :15:20.Is it time to eat humble pie? Humble pie, or was I correct? Back in
:15:21. > :15:24.September myself and Ian Wright sat here and I said with his ability,
:15:25. > :15:28.because he has got tonnes of it, that he should be producing more,
:15:29. > :15:32.and the stats backed me up then. But when you compare it to this season,
:15:33. > :15:38.he's having by far his best season of his career. He's now goals,
:15:39. > :15:42.assists and today, without doubt, he was Man of the Match. He drove his
:15:43. > :15:48.team forward with his energy and skill, to go past players, Kante
:15:49. > :15:54.fouls him and they really could not cope with him today. He got an
:15:55. > :15:58.excellent goal, wins the ball back here. It's his determination to get
:15:59. > :16:02.through their, the strength to get through and it's one hell of finish.
:16:03. > :16:06.The keeper has got absolutely no chance at all. Look at him getting
:16:07. > :16:10.forward there, the drive. He gets the ball and plays a lovely ball
:16:11. > :16:16.back in to Benteke here. It's a clever finish. Really clever finish.
:16:17. > :16:21.Takes a touch and exit over the goalkeeper, but set up by the half.
:16:22. > :16:25.Again, driving his team forward, what a save this is. Down on goal,
:16:26. > :16:30.they could not cope with him all afternoon. Whatever he did, he did
:16:31. > :16:35.incredibly well. You can see the confidence that he's now got here.
:16:36. > :16:40.Look at that for a piece of skill. I love this. Brilliant. Without doubt,
:16:41. > :16:44.he was Man of the Match and his playing was confident. Palace's day,
:16:45. > :16:49.no doubt and things went for them as well. Should Chelsea have had a
:16:50. > :16:52.penalty with Townsend's hand ball? I think the referee will be
:16:53. > :16:56.disappointed, he wasn't in the best of positions and for me, it's
:16:57. > :16:59.definitely hand ball. From that angle, no, but you see this,
:17:00. > :17:05.Townsend has definitely got away with one here. That was maybe the
:17:06. > :17:06.luck they deserved on the day, because they were manful enough in
:17:07. > :17:10.their performance. . Everton fans partied
:17:11. > :17:12.like it was 1999 the last time they won at Anfield -
:17:13. > :17:15.that's because it was 1999. Ronald Koeman's side kicked off
:17:16. > :17:17.the Merseyside Derby in seventh place, six points behind Liverpool
:17:18. > :17:38.who were looking to ANNOUNCER: We have a minute's
:17:39. > :17:44.silence. COMMENTATOR:
:17:45. > :17:49.The man who prepared teams for many Reds the Blues meetings, let's have
:17:50. > :17:53.this, the 228 does his memory proud. For the Liverpool off today, Lovren
:17:54. > :17:57.is selective head of Klavan defence, with Lucas coming in for the injured
:17:58. > :18:04.Lallana. The only other change from two weeks ago at city. Eight useful
:18:05. > :18:09.Everton team includes Matthew Pennington, playing for the first
:18:10. > :18:14.time all season, along with Mason Holgate and Calvert-Lewin and the
:18:15. > :18:18.teenage talents of Tom Davies. Does form go out of the window for
:18:19. > :18:22.derbies? With both teams in fine fettle before the international
:18:23. > :18:30.break, let's hope not. Caught by Ross Barkley in a challenge that has
:18:31. > :18:34.sparked a bit of Liverpool anger, and a major flash point in the
:18:35. > :18:39.previous meetings of these two sides because of the Bartley tackle and
:18:40. > :18:43.he's going to be so broken to now. -- Barkley tackle and he's going to
:18:44. > :18:47.be spoken to now. Just words, rather than having his name taken. He's
:18:48. > :18:50.never going to quite get there, is it? At full stretch, not full
:18:51. > :19:04.enough. Mane is very sharp in getting the
:19:05. > :19:13.ball. Mane on it again. Mane has a goal underscores! -- he has a go,
:19:14. > :19:17.and scores. Scored by the man who won the derby at Goodison December.
:19:18. > :19:23.That one came late. This one has come very early. He started it.
:19:24. > :19:29.Quick to the ball. Strong enough to hold off Davies and with Coutinho
:19:30. > :19:34.diverted attention, Mane was free to wander into a place from which he
:19:35. > :19:38.could score. Three Everton defenders, Holgate actually was
:19:39. > :19:48.taken out by one of his own. Liverpool one, Everton nil.
:19:49. > :19:56.Can looks for Coutinho, only Firmino up with him at the moment. Wijnaldum
:19:57. > :20:01.arriving. Coutinho goes by himself. A super-sized by Robles. Headed away
:20:02. > :20:11.from the goal by Jagielka. A big save, this. Lovely pass from Emre
:20:12. > :20:14.Can. Coutinho, the drop of the shoulder there, breezed past
:20:15. > :20:21.Pennington to find the space from which to shoot.
:20:22. > :20:29.Baines arriving. Calvert-Lewin. Off Nathaniel Clyne, Everton have a
:20:30. > :20:45.corner. It's slotted home! Matthew
:20:46. > :20:49.Pennington has equalised for Everton, out of nowhere! His first
:20:50. > :20:53.senior goal. What a game to get it in! It is the run from Jagielka that
:20:54. > :20:59.caused the problem. Emre Can unable to go with him. His touch on,
:21:00. > :21:04.Williams 40 had the chance, Lovren prevented that. Watch the movement
:21:05. > :21:07.of Pennington, he's watching the ball all the time. He arrived in the
:21:08. > :21:13.right place at the right time. The defender from Warrington, he's made
:21:14. > :21:27.it in the Merseyside derby, Liverpool one, Everton one.
:21:28. > :21:37.Coutinho! Everton weren't level for long. Liverpool have their lead
:21:38. > :21:44.back. I moment of magic from Phillippe Coutinho. Given far too
:21:45. > :21:50.much space in the first instance. A little shimmy and burst of pace took
:21:51. > :21:55.him away from Gueye. There was no stopping the shot. Goals beautifully
:21:56. > :21:59.into the corner. Liverpool two, Everton one. If Everton's
:22:00. > :22:01.goal-scorer was a surprise, the two on target for Liverpool aren't.
:22:02. > :22:10.First Mane, now Coutinho. Emre Can being held onto by
:22:11. > :22:17.Williams. Advantage indicated for Liverpool.
:22:18. > :22:32.Emre Can stayed down for a little while after that charge from
:22:33. > :22:36.Williams. The defender stood on him after fouling him and the referee
:22:37. > :22:38.noted it was a foul. He indicated advantage. He didn't see what
:22:39. > :22:47.followed. Just played that too far in front of
:22:48. > :22:53.himself and as he followed through, he caught Lovren hard. Anthony
:22:54. > :22:57.Taylor is saying that is your second challenge. He might have been booked
:22:58. > :23:01.for the first one. He is getting carded for this one and I think
:23:02. > :23:06.Liverpool, on another day, it might have been more than a yellow. He
:23:07. > :23:10.caught Lovren the bottom of the ankle, top of the foot. If we slow
:23:11. > :23:14.it down, it doesn't look good for Ross Barkley. You think about the
:23:15. > :23:16.first tackle, I think that maybe he is fortunate to still be playing a
:23:17. > :23:29.full, active role in the game. Lucas came rushing in. That will be
:23:30. > :23:32.a free kick for Everton. Jurgen Klopp and from an coma not going to
:23:33. > :23:39.get pretty close to one another down on the touchline -- Jurgen Klopp and
:23:40. > :23:42.Ronald Koeman. Martin Atkinson stands tall between them. Not just
:23:43. > :23:44.the two Main men getting involved. You can see the fitness coach

:24:03. > :24:07.for his team. It's going to be Ross Barkley to take charge of what
:24:08. > :24:10.happens next. Liverpool trying to push every Everton player as far
:24:11. > :24:14.away from their goal as they can, but what a good delivery it is and
:24:15. > :24:20.it's held onto by Mignolet, with Liverpool wide open there. Well
:24:21. > :24:24.played in. All the movement was right. Williams got to it but didn't
:24:25. > :24:27.get enough connection to get it across to Lukaku, or even better
:24:28. > :24:43.than that, to find a way past Mignolet. Collected by Milner.
:24:44. > :24:49.He desperately wanted to shoot and it just arrived at Coutinho too
:24:50. > :24:53.quickly. He couldn't sort its feet out it into an open goal. Emre Can
:24:54. > :25:08.always looking for the angle. Straight to Davies. Everton have
:25:09. > :25:11.overplayed. Now they do get out. A bit more than that, with
:25:12. > :25:16.Calvert-Lewin taking on Matip. He does really well. Liverpool have an
:25:17. > :25:21.issue at the other end with Sadio Mane still down. This is the tackle
:25:22. > :25:25.from Baines, that caused the problem. It's the backlight that
:25:26. > :25:28.catches him and then I think he treads on him inadvertently, with
:25:29. > :25:35.Mane's wait already on that foot. Oh, that's a painful looking one.
:25:36. > :25:40.Divock Origi is ready to come on for Liverpool. He was a scorer in this
:25:41. > :25:41.fixture in April of last year. Rather different game, Liverpool
:25:42. > :25:51.four, Everton nil. He has adopted the central role
:25:52. > :25:52.since coming on, with Firmino going right into the space vacated by
:25:53. > :26:08.Mane. Coutinho, a little step over and
:26:09. > :26:13.he's away from Gueye. Now it's really. It might be all over. That's
:26:14. > :26:24.the loudest noise of the day at Anfield. Coutinho again heavily
:26:25. > :26:29.involved. A past that took Ashley Williams out of the game. It
:26:30. > :26:34.presented Divock Origi with the opportunity to score and he has one
:26:35. > :26:37.look to see where Robles is going and whacks the ball effortlessly
:26:38. > :26:51.past him. Liverpool three, Everton one. Jagielka, Williams. Williams
:26:52. > :26:54.loses it. It's going to be a yellow card for Ashley Williams for the
:26:55. > :26:58.challenge on Emre Can. Williams actually seemed to stand on the
:26:59. > :27:02.ball, partially. You can see the marks.
:27:03. > :27:09.Up towards Lukaku. Lovren had slipped. Nobody realised. A big hand
:27:10. > :27:23.from Mignolet. Good ball in and a missed chance,
:27:24. > :27:31.and a golden chance. Mason Holgate passes it up. Lukaku in another
:27:32. > :27:36.moment might have continued their himself. It was Holgate with the
:27:37. > :27:40.initial drive. When that comes back in he finds himself with as free
:27:41. > :27:42.header as you are likely to get. Now Nathaniel Clyne finds
:27:43. > :27:51.Alexander-Arnold. Emre Can has given Gareth Barry the
:27:52. > :27:59.slip. Alexander-Arnold wants it, take it on and it's pulled clear by
:28:00. > :28:04.Robles. That would be a day. With two young defenders scoring at the
:28:05. > :28:08.Kop end. It might well have been goal bound. It was always curling
:28:09. > :28:14.away from that far post. Two wonderful goals, outstanding goals,
:28:15. > :28:21.all three of them. Conceding a goal after a set piece, you could see, we
:28:22. > :28:27.lose one challenge so two box and one challenge will stop all the
:28:28. > :28:33.problems we had with injuries and then I'm proud about the whole team
:28:34. > :28:36.and of course also proud about the young players. It's nice to put in a
:28:37. > :28:39.performance as well but ultimately you need the result and give the
:28:40. > :28:43.fans bragging rights for another six months or one of the next fixture
:28:44. > :28:48.comes up. As there should be in a derby there were plenty of tackles.
:28:49. > :28:54.But some of those a bit much today? From both sides also tackles, maybe
:28:55. > :28:58.a bit more than yellow, but it's up to Liverpool, I don't mean the
:28:59. > :29:04.manager but one of the coaches, the referee had to show eight red cards
:29:05. > :29:08.and I don't like that behaviour. I'm still a guest in this country so
:29:09. > :29:12.that's how it is. I like a lovely -- I like and love being here but how
:29:13. > :29:16.can I decide what's OK and what's not OK? I asked one time and
:29:17. > :29:19.somebody told me that the England, so if you saw something, say it. If
:29:20. > :29:30.not, be quiet. We'll say it in a minute. A
:29:31. > :29:34.comfortable victory for Liverpool. They seemed to cope with the -- the
:29:35. > :29:39.didn't seem to cope with the Reds' front three. They seemed to be stuck
:29:40. > :29:43.up whether to press or sit off, particularly Coutinho, they didn't
:29:44. > :29:47.get it right, Everton. He's got some ability. He's a very difficult
:29:48. > :29:51.player to pick up. But that's what I mean, there. Defenders have to be
:29:52. > :29:55.tight there, have to get closer to the forwards than what they are,
:29:56. > :29:59.because once you get and give this guy time to run at you, to get into
:30:00. > :30:05.the box and pick his head up and it's very difficult to mark him.
:30:06. > :30:10.Pennington didn't get tight at all their, a little give and go. Very,
:30:11. > :30:16.very clever play. He's got you where he wants you, but you in the box.
:30:17. > :30:19.You can't touch him. That was a warning to them. They got away with
:30:20. > :30:26.that one, but it was happening all the time. This time it's Firmino
:30:27. > :30:31.there. A simple ball in, take a touch, turn. It's a brilliant finish
:30:32. > :30:36.from Mane, it really is superb. A clever finish. They can't touch in
:30:37. > :30:39.the box. The keeper has got absolutely no chance. It was
:30:40. > :30:44.staggering, how many times it was happening. It was brilliant play
:30:45. > :30:47.from him. Look, he knows once he's running at you there, you are not
:30:48. > :30:51.going to stop him. In the box and what a hell of a finish that is, the
:30:52. > :30:56.keeper has no chance. Second half, didn't change. The same thing
:30:57. > :30:59.happened. They played three at the back and seemed a bit confused as to
:31:00. > :31:06.whether to get tight on them, but it was like men against boys for a lot
:31:07. > :31:06.of the game today. Liverpool were far superior than Everton and
:31:07. > :31:16.thoroughly deserved three points. Both managers referenced the
:31:17. > :31:22.challenges in that game, Ronald Koeman said he wasn't happy can
:31:23. > :31:26.Jurgen Klopp's dug-out. We have seen Gerrard and people over the years
:31:27. > :31:30.make the challenges. This looks naughty to me. The heel coming in
:31:31. > :31:38.from Barkley. He needs to be clever with this, Barkley. Some of his
:31:39. > :31:42.tackling is not really on. He's a young lad, bone shattering tackle.
:31:43. > :31:46.He takes his own team-mate out afterwards. You want to see those
:31:47. > :31:54.tackles. He got booked for that, riepthly so. I don't think there is
:31:55. > :31:57.anything in that really. You saw Mings stamping on someone recently.
:31:58. > :32:04.That is not the same thing. Nothing doing there. That is really, when
:32:05. > :32:08.you see this from the other angle. Lovren's leg bends back. I think
:32:09. > :32:12.he's trying to protect himself. Doing so - he is lucky not to have
:32:13. > :32:16.gone for that. He gets booked. He maybe should have been booked
:32:17. > :32:22.earlier in the game. This is Ashley Williams. When you see this in
:32:23. > :32:26.slow-mo, really nasty. He goes over the ball there. Catches him actually
:32:27. > :32:31.with his right leg. You see it, right on the knee. That's what -
:32:32. > :32:37.that's the sort of thing you see. Merseyside Derby I suppose? It is.
:32:38. > :32:39.You have to be careful there. He was right, Koeman was right, there will
:32:40. > :32:45.be those sort of tackles in this game. Romelu Lukaku was quiet today?
:32:46. > :32:50.Premier League top-scorer thchl is how you handle him. They didn't give
:32:51. > :33:00.him a sniff the whole game. Lucas was in front protecting him. They
:33:01. > :33:05.bullied him, to be honest. Look who is in front, Lucas. That happened
:33:06. > :33:10.all game, time and time again. Lukaku, slow to react there. Lovren
:33:11. > :33:17.is in there, quicker than him. They didn't give him a sniff at all he
:33:18. > :33:20.had no efforts on goal. There is that man again, just protecting.
:33:21. > :33:25.Snuffing that ball out before it gets to him. Should actually do
:33:26. > :33:31.better here. Look at the men in and around him. Not a kick all
:33:32. > :33:34.afternoon. When that happens. , you tend to drift out wide because you
:33:35. > :33:38.are not getting as many touches as you want. That is what he started to
:33:39. > :33:44.do later on in the game. In the end, he was putting the crosses in.
:33:45. > :33:47.Dominated today. Nothing from him at all. Very much Liverpool's day.
:33:48. > :34:11.COMMENTATOR: Sissoko following in! He's wide! Gray, oh! It's Martial's
:34:12. > :34:17.header. Rodriguez. Good save, Boruc. To Turf Moor next, where Burnley
:34:18. > :34:20.were defending a six game unbeaten run at home against second placed
:34:21. > :34:31.Spurs, who've not lost to a team COMMENTATOR: Michael Keane takes his
:34:32. > :34:34.place in an unchanged team fresh from his first taste of
:34:35. > :34:39.international football. He became the first Burnley player to start
:34:40. > :34:53.for England since Martin Dobson back in 1974. In a continued absence of
:34:54. > :34:57.Spurs's top score, Kane. Son is on the bench having played 90 minutes
:34:58. > :35:17.for Seoul on Tuesday. Very tight in there. No way through
:35:18. > :35:26.for Burnley. It's been that type of game thus far. Dele Alli. Eriksen.
:35:27. > :35:32.He has Janssen up alongside him. Eriksen, he's round Ben Mee. Beaten
:35:33. > :35:37.away. Dele Alli came in and couldn't finish it off. He's had a golden
:35:38. > :35:42.touch recently. 11 goals in his last 12 Premier League games. That is the
:35:43. > :35:48.closest either team have come to breaking the deadlock. Pushed out
:35:49. > :35:53.Heaton. Dele Alli came in. He scored in each of his last four games in
:35:54. > :36:00.all competitions. He will be disappointed, and so will he, that
:36:01. > :36:08.he hasn't made it five. Can Tottenham break? Winks. He's got
:36:09. > :36:18.Trippier to his right. Dispossessed by Ward. Lovely play from the
:36:19. > :36:22.Irishman. Now, Harry Winks, in his attempts to get to that, went
:36:23. > :36:33.tumbling off the pitch and looks in a lot of pain towards the Burnley
:36:34. > :36:44.dug-out. 0-0 at the break. We hope that that that doesn't look as
:36:45. > :36:50.serious as it is for Harry Winks. Tottenham trying to prise an opening
:36:51. > :36:55.out of Burnley. That's better from them though. Dele Alli. Sissoko -
:36:56. > :37:07.dreadful touch from the Frenchman. It's come back out to Eriksen. Now
:37:08. > :37:10.Davies. Janssen. Ben Davies, terrific stop from Heaton. Wonderful
:37:11. > :37:17.reflexes from the Burnley goalkeeper. Well Tom Heaton has kept
:37:18. > :37:26.five clean sheets at home this season. This is why today's is still
:37:27. > :37:33.intact. Had to be on his toes. The effort from Ben Davies and Ben Mee
:37:34. > :37:38.completed the clearance. Hendrick. A risky ball to him. Broken to
:37:39. > :37:45.Janssen. Up against Ben Mee. He's still going, Janssen. Then it came
:37:46. > :37:51.to Sissoko. A lack of composure when it really was required. Sissoko, who
:37:52. > :37:54.prior to today has only played 58 minutes of Premier League football
:37:55. > :37:59.this year. That was a wild effort from the Frenchman, who still hasn't
:38:00. > :38:09.scored for Spurs. Hi wasn't close to changing it there. Here's Trippier.
:38:10. > :38:14.He's overhit that. Davies to get it back across, then put behind by Joey
:38:15. > :38:29.Barton. Tottenham corner count is up to seven. 25 minutes to go. Eriksen
:38:30. > :38:36.with it. All the way through. An opportunity and in! From Eric Dier.
:38:37. > :38:41.It could be a big goal for Tottenham. It's his first Premier
:38:42. > :38:46.League goal since December 2015. It's a most welcome one in this
:38:47. > :38:52.game. Burnley didn't deal with it. Poor clearance from Hendrick. A calm
:38:53. > :39:01.finish from Dier. Passed it into the net. Look what it means to Mauricio
:39:02. > :39:11.Pochettino. Aimed towards Vokes. Keane, on the turn. Couldn't quite
:39:12. > :39:23.keep it down. He's scored a couple of Premier League goals this season,
:39:24. > :39:30.Michael Keane. On his left foot, just miscued it. Won back by
:39:31. > :39:43.Eriksen. From Joey Barton. Dele Alli. In towards Son. 2-0 Tottenham.
:39:44. > :39:50.Heung-Min Son with his eighth Premier League goal of the season,
:39:51. > :39:59.which could seal an 18th win of the season. With just 12 minutes to
:40:00. > :40:03.play. Full credit to Eriksen winning that challenge from Joey Barton and
:40:04. > :40:08.finding Dele Alli. What about the awareness here? Wonderful ball from
:40:09. > :40:20.Dele Alli. The south Korean international couldn't miss. Burnley
:40:21. > :40:29.0, Spurs 2. Son to Sissoko. That's in towards Eriksen. Dele Alli.
:40:30. > :40:37.Wonderful effort. Spurs with a real spring in their step now. Just tried
:40:38. > :40:46.to clip that towards the far corner. Certainly had Tom Heaton stretching.
:40:47. > :40:56.That came off Hendrick. It's fallen to Son. He knew Dele Alli was there.
:40:57. > :41:03.This to seal it, once and for all. Dele Alli. And it still won't go in
:41:04. > :41:08.for him. Again, it was sloppy from Burnley in the build-up. Good
:41:09. > :41:13.awareness from Son. Just right across the face, in the end. How
:41:14. > :41:19.important was your goal when it came in the second-half? Very important.
:41:20. > :41:23.Yeah, you know, I was really happy just to get a goal, to be honest.
:41:24. > :41:26.It's been a while? It's been a while. I was getting more worried I
:41:27. > :41:31.wasn't going to get one. Yeah, I needed a bit of luck, it bounced
:41:32. > :41:36.down in front of me. Yeah, you know, it's so hard to come here and we
:41:37. > :41:40.knew it was going to be tough. We had the right attitude. Up until
:41:41. > :41:44.their first goal I thought it was a tight affair. We gave a good
:41:45. > :41:47.performance, solid. Kept them using the lines of pass they like tochl
:41:48. > :41:50.they like to rotate and shift the ball quickly between the units. I
:41:51. > :41:54.thought we kept that to a minimum. We created good chances. Good
:41:55. > :41:59.positions rather than chances. That is something we have to add to, that
:42:00. > :42:02.final moment of quality. 27 points tloeft play for, seven point gap.
:42:03. > :42:08.People were calling them champions-elect. Is this champion
:42:09. > :42:15.race back on? Seven points is completely different to ten. It's
:42:16. > :42:21.still a lot of work to do. It's not depending on us, it's depending on
:42:22. > :42:27.if Chelsea fade. We can be there to the end of the season and try to
:42:28. > :42:32.fight for the title, of course. Things have livened up a tad. A few
:42:33. > :42:37.injuries Tottenham have, no Harry Kane. Spurs marching on? Seven
:42:38. > :42:41.league games without Harry Kane this season. It was always going to be
:42:42. > :42:46.tough at Burnley with their home record. They didn't really miss him
:42:47. > :42:50.today. They went four at the back in the second-half. They were dominant.
:42:51. > :42:54.This is the first half. They did create a lot of chances. That was
:42:55. > :42:59.the only one in the first half. The second-half they were totally
:43:00. > :43:04.dominant. Davies, this time, good save from Heaton. This time Sissoko.
:43:05. > :43:11.Wild slice. Should actually hit the target. This is a goal from Dier.
:43:12. > :43:16.Gets away from Keane. Takes the touch. Time to do that. Picks his
:43:17. > :43:22.spot well. Eriksen winning the ball in midfield. Lovely ball through to
:43:23. > :43:28.Dier. To Dele Alli, I should say. What a ball that is for a tap-in for
:43:29. > :43:32.Son who came on as sub. It was chance after chance and should have
:43:33. > :43:36.been a few more. Dele Alli, again. He gets in on goal. Scuffs it wide.
:43:37. > :43:39.It was a big test for Tottenham that today. They passed with flying
:43:40. > :43:44.colours again. Gap down to seven points, Martin. A tad more
:43:45. > :43:48.interesting for us neutrals. Can it be done? I don't think it can be.
:43:49. > :43:51.This team, Tottenham, have been brilliant since the turn of the
:43:52. > :43:56.year. More points than any other team. They have tough ones. Chelsea
:43:57. > :44:03.and the next few games? Exactly. You never know. Semi-final to come. The
:44:04. > :44:08.two best teams, without doubt. A good result for them today.
:44:09. > :44:10.Hull, who began the day three points from safety,
:44:11. > :44:12.welcomed West Ham to the KCOM Stadium.
:44:13. > :44:14.The Hammers have lost three on the spin, leading to speculation
:44:15. > :44:28.Hernandez starts for Hull City despite only returning from
:44:29. > :44:30.international duty with Uruguay yesterday morning. His first-ever
:44:31. > :44:35.Premier League goal came here against West Ham, but he is
:44:36. > :44:38.currently suffering a seven-game goal drought. Robert Snodgrass
:44:39. > :44:44.returns for his former stomping ground yet to score in Everton Blues
:44:45. > :44:47.insist ?10 million move in January, but he remains Hull City's top
:44:48. > :44:54.scorer for the campaign with seven strikes.
:44:55. > :45:00.Clucas picked out Elmohamady, took a while to see if he backed himself
:45:01. > :45:05.with the pass but he's found the pass. Elmohamady has forced a corner
:45:06. > :45:09.off Cresswell. The first corner of the game. Hull City have scored in
:45:10. > :45:13.all of their games here since Marco Silva replaced Mike Phelan in early
:45:14. > :45:25.January. Markovic, the Serbian, to take. Struck a West Ham face, but
:45:26. > :45:30.away by Fonte. Feghouli couldn't clear his lines. It's Clucas for
:45:31. > :45:34.Hull. Cresswell is there, but under pressure from Niasse, who's done
:45:35. > :45:41.brilliantly. Now Markovic, he can go back to Niasse. A decent cross and
:45:42. > :45:47.its behind by Fonte, on the slide. Suddenly a bit of pressure on the
:45:48. > :45:49.West Ham defence here. Ten points out of a possible 12 in the Premier
:45:50. > :46:02.League here for Marco Silva. Davies chose to head it away but has
:46:03. > :46:06.conceded possession cheaply to Feghouli. Snodgrass has taken up a
:46:07. > :46:10.great position in the middle. What a chance for Robert Snodgrass on his
:46:11. > :46:15.return to the KCOM Stadium. It bounced perfectly to invite the
:46:16. > :46:22.header, but he couldn't beat Jakupovic. Was the offside? The flag
:46:23. > :46:25.stayed down nearside. Slaven Bilic, the latest Premier League manager to
:46:26. > :46:37.come under criticism this week. It's his job is safe? -- is his job safe?
:46:38. > :46:45.Cresswell getting forward. Carroll puts it home. His 50th Premier
:46:46. > :46:54.League goal. He celebrates with the opening strike. Curtis Davies will
:46:55. > :47:01.not want to see this again. Carroll just dripping in behind Davies here.
:47:02. > :47:05.Davies misjudged it. Carroll had time to wing it down and steer it
:47:06. > :47:09.beyond Jakupovic. Not only successful Hull at home, Marco
:47:10. > :47:13.Silva, he's actually not lost a home game in over three years for his
:47:14. > :47:23.various clubs. That's 38 games in total. Cresswell's delivery. Cleared
:47:24. > :47:31.as far as Lanzini. Jakupovic makes a very good save. Lanzini has really
:47:32. > :47:36.stepped up and he's weighed in with seven goals this season and that was
:47:37. > :47:39.heading home and but for the outstretched left hand of Jakupovic,
:47:40. > :47:44.West Ham boss might lead would have doubled. A change made by Marco
:47:45. > :47:50.Silva at half-time. Hull City have changed their formation to a rather
:47:51. > :47:52.bold looking for- to- four, it underlines the importance of Hull
:47:53. > :47:59.City getting something out of this game. Hull desperately need more
:48:00. > :48:05.quality from Markovic. He's found Hernandez and he's picked out
:48:06. > :48:11.Rosicky. Here -- Grosicki. Here's Robertson. Superbly taken! His
:48:12. > :48:15.first-ever Premier League goal and it might just be a building block as
:48:16. > :48:20.Hull City try to preserve their Premier League status. Markovic
:48:21. > :48:24.started it. At last they are moving the ball quickly and accurately.
:48:25. > :48:29.Robertson bombing forward. Suddenly there's space and there a calmness
:48:30. > :48:34.about is finish that belies the fact that that is its first-ever Premier
:48:35. > :48:39.League goal. Tuck it away quite beautifully and he stepped up when
:48:40. > :48:44.his club needed him today. Suddenly Marco Silva's team show a bit of
:48:45. > :48:48.fight about them. Snodgrass, you still feel he will have some part to
:48:49. > :48:52.play in this contest. He is looking for Carroll. It's a good job for
:48:53. > :49:02.Jakupovic that the header was straight at him. You feel it would
:49:03. > :49:07.have been to- one, West Ham. -- 2-1. Here come Hull City again, it's
:49:08. > :49:16.Niasse up against fog again. It will come to N'Diaye, what a chance,
:49:17. > :49:19.against the post. He's wide. Oh, we'll Hull City rue those
:49:20. > :49:23.opportunities come the final whistle? Suddenly there are huge
:49:24. > :49:28.gaps in the West Ham rearguard. Niasse could have fed it to N'Diaye
:49:29. > :49:31.but chose the wrong option. It felt for the Senegalese, who found the
:49:32. > :49:34.woodwork and Grosicki couldn't even do that. These could be vital
:49:35. > :49:41.opportunities that Hull City are wasting. Ranocchia, the target is
:49:42. > :49:54.Grosicki, on the blindside of Byron. A chance to cross for Robertson.
:49:55. > :50:05.He's picked out Maloney. All he can do is force a corner off font will
:50:06. > :50:14.-- off Fonte. Hull City were briefly top of the table in August. Headed
:50:15. > :50:21.in by Ranocchia! Andrea Ranocchia, the man from Inter Milan, pulse Hull
:50:22. > :50:25.City in front five minutes from time. Hull City, so ordinary for
:50:26. > :50:31.most of the game, particularly the first half, and Ranocchia charged
:50:32. > :50:36.the near post. He wasn't picked up close enough by Kouyate and it's a
:50:37. > :50:41.lovely deft touch from the Italian. He finds the bottom corner.
:50:42. > :50:48.How important was you got all three points today? Really important. With
:50:49. > :50:52.our stadium and our fans we are strong. Very good, because we start
:50:53. > :50:57.to lose and after, we changed the result. It's important as well. We
:50:58. > :51:05.deserved this result we could find ourselves one nil down and probably
:51:06. > :51:09.deservedly so. A change of formation and personnel, the second half we
:51:10. > :51:15.dominated and we deserved the two points in the end. Teams go through
:51:16. > :51:23.sticky patches. We have a great team, great manager and we will pull
:51:24. > :51:27.through. I can't stop the speculation, except by winning games
:51:28. > :51:36.and getting a point or whatever and we didn't do it. Today,
:51:37. > :51:42.unfortunately, we had a good chance. Of course, we can expect more
:51:43. > :51:48.speculation. Do you even bother to read it? No, I wasn't and I'm not.
:51:49. > :51:52.I'm concentrating on my job and doing the job the best I can. That's
:51:53. > :51:58.it. We'll come to that. A crucial three points for Hull. They were
:51:59. > :52:02.struggling and had a tactical turnaround by Silva. They did, Marco
:52:03. > :52:04.Silva has been playing with three at the back and changed it to four at
:52:05. > :52:06.Silva has been playing with three at the back and changed it to four at
:52:07. > :52:10.half-time, Grosicki coming off the bench made all the difference to
:52:11. > :52:16.them. He hasn't lost a home game in about four years as a manager and he
:52:17. > :52:19.knows how to make changes. Grosicki here, you could say this was an
:52:20. > :52:25.amazing assist and great play here. Robertson getting on the end of this
:52:26. > :52:29.assist, look at the run he's made, but when you see him on the edge of
:52:30. > :52:32.the box, here, I think is going to take it onto his right foot and
:52:33. > :52:38.think about hitting this into the corner. But instead it comes off his
:52:39. > :52:42.foot and it's a fantastic, he passes it from his right foot to his left
:52:43. > :52:45.foot, Robertson, and it's a wonderful finish. You can't take
:52:46. > :52:50.this away from Grosicki, a great ball in. Ranocchia there with a
:52:51. > :52:54.great run. The marking is absolutely terrible from West Ham. They've been
:52:55. > :52:56.really appalled with that, Slaven Bilic hanging onto his job and
:52:57. > :53:00.that's a really easy goal to concede. Andy Carroll, one of the
:53:01. > :53:03.best headers of the ball in the Premier League on the near post.
:53:04. > :53:10.He's been out jumps, easily. He's quite broke -- he's quite mobile,
:53:11. > :53:16.that Ranocchia. Slaven Bilic, under the cosh, is it fair? I think it was
:53:17. > :53:19.always going to be a tough season for them. They suffered with
:53:20. > :53:24.injuries. He's lost his best player, Payet. A new stadium, it's always
:53:25. > :53:29.going to be tough. Their 14th, three points of nine, so I think it's
:53:30. > :53:32.unfair. What they need to do is come out and back him.
:53:33. > :53:35.Two games with an impact at both ends of the table,
:53:36. > :53:58.plus Goal of the Month on Match of the Day 2.
:53:59. > :54:00.There's live commentary of both games on 5 Live

:54:18. > :54:20.the top of the show - you can always go back at any
:54:21. > :54:37.COMMENTATOR: Shaun Bartlett, the long pass from
:54:38. > :54:40.Graham Stuart. He's on the edge of the area and Shaun Bartlett made it
:54:41. > :54:50.first time, left into the bottom corner. Ewan-macro a special goal.
:54:51. > :54:53.Leicester have moved clear of danger after three straight wins under
:54:54. > :54:57.The champions played host to Stoke, who've won just once in their last
:54:58. > :54:58.eight visits to the King Power Stadium.
:54:59. > :55:11.They are all one for now but surely Sir Michael is a shoo-in for the
:55:12. > :55:18.Player of the Year award for the Foxes. -- Schmeichel. Berahino has a
:55:19. > :55:21.lot to do to make him one of the most promising youngsters. His last
:55:22. > :55:29.goal was over 13 months ago but a fresh start at Stoke may yet make
:55:30. > :55:32.him a bargain. Stoke have lost five of their last seven away, though
:55:33. > :55:38.they did get a point at Manchester City, which is no mean achievement.
:55:39. > :55:44.Now Demarai Gray, for Leicester. A chance to move his pace. Ryan
:55:45. > :55:50.Shawcross, straight into the referee's notebook. That's a
:55:51. > :55:53.shocking challenge. Gray is so much quicker than Shawcross but there's
:55:54. > :55:58.absolutely no attempt whatsoever by Ryan Shawcross to even acquaint
:55:59. > :56:02.himself with the ball. If football had an orange card I think it would
:56:03. > :56:12.have been brandished. Leicester have a free kick. Demarai Gray is off the
:56:13. > :56:19.pitch. Then he goes and it's... Kick in the end. -- goalkicker in the
:56:20. > :56:26.end. Huth is chasing the referee, Vardy looking quizzical. It appeared
:56:27. > :56:32.to come off Glen Johnson. First chance was Huth's, then Vardy. It
:56:33. > :56:41.would have cost a lot of money to put the chairman's name on there.
:56:42. > :56:51.Whelan, straight to Danny Drinkwater. Here's Mahrez. Space
:56:52. > :57:00.here for Wilfred Ndidi D. Hits it absolutely brilliantly! Absolute
:57:01. > :57:08.cracker from Wilfred Ndidi D. Superb strike. Feast your eyes on that! Lee
:57:09. > :57:10.Grant wasn't getting near this one. Out of the blue and out of the very
:57:11. > :57:30.top draw. Leicester lead. That's a good ball into Arnautovic.
:57:31. > :57:37.A real chance from Arnautovic. A lovely bit of play here from Sobhi.
:57:38. > :57:42.Picked out the run of Arnautovic, had to swivel and to just over
:57:43. > :57:50.rotated in the end, if anything. The Foxes have their tails up again. Now
:57:51. > :57:57.Mahrez. A good save by Grant, did really well. He got a really strong
:57:58. > :58:03.hand on this, the Stoke goalkeeper. That's a top save.
:58:04. > :58:21.Hooked in, Vardy, great finish. Two spectacular Leicester City goals.
:58:22. > :58:27.Jamie Vardy doubled their lead. They cannot stop smiling at the King
:58:28. > :58:31.Power again. Look at the movement here of Vardy. Stoke might not what
:58:32. > :58:40.to look at the defending. Glen Johnson standing statuesque. Jamie
:58:41. > :58:44.Vardy nips in front and whacked, 2-0. As soon as Vardy got in front
:58:45. > :58:49.of him, Glen Johnson knew what was coming. He will be incensed that his
:58:50. > :58:52.side conceded so early in the second half. Everything he said at
:58:53. > :58:53.half-time pretty much down the drain within about 60 seconds of the
:58:54. > :59:03.restart. Berahino looking for Allen again.
:59:04. > :59:10.Blocked by Drinkwater. Okazaki forward to Vardy. Leicester break,
:59:11. > :59:13.Vardy and Mahrez. Only two in this, two might be enough. Mahrez. A great
:59:14. > :59:35.save. Mahrez again. Mahrez found by Vardy and Grant to
:59:36. > :59:45.the rescue for Stoke. Sometimes it only takes two. Good play by Vardy.
:59:46. > :59:53.Good ball that, Arnautovic is offside.
:59:54. > :59:59.Put it away smartly enough. Offside, Marko Arnautovic. He turns and says
:00:00. > :00:09.to the referee's assistant, are you absolutely sure about that? It
:00:10. > :00:13.looked tight. He's well onside. By the very high standards to which
:00:14. > :00:26.they work, that was straight-forward looking decision. Adams ball in.
:00:27. > :00:30.Schmeichel did well. He delivers for Vardy. Who has won the header.
:00:31. > :00:37.Mahrez here. They are in trouble here. Varpdy wants it. Iing in order
:00:38. > :00:40.by Mahrez. Well, he should really have looked for Jamie Vardy. If he
:00:41. > :00:46.had, I think it would have been three. A poor miss. Is certainly,
:00:47. > :00:49.his decision contentious though it was to dispense with Claudio
:00:50. > :01:00.Ranieri, has been utterly vindicated. Here's Gray. Gray. Oh, a
:01:01. > :01:05.little touch there from Grant. It's a really good save that by Lee
:01:06. > :01:16.Grant. Finger tip stop here from the Stoke keeper. Arnautovic. Diouf.
:01:17. > :01:21.Crouch in the middle. Ramadan arriving. Crouch, he should have
:01:22. > :01:26.scored. Crouch knows that's got to go in the back of the net. So a
:01:27. > :01:30.little bit of history, David Shakespeare will become the first
:01:31. > :01:34.ever Englishman to win his first four Premier League games as a
:01:35. > :01:38.manager. I always felt today the first goal was going to be crucial.
:01:39. > :01:43.What a good goal it turned out to be by the way. I always felt then it
:01:44. > :01:49.gave us a foothold in the game. Then we you score after half-time, people
:01:50. > :01:52.will tell you that goals are important at times. Today they were
:01:53. > :01:56.crucial. The second one, just after half-time, gave us that confidence
:01:57. > :02:01.to go on and win the game. We didn't perform today, half a yard short all
:02:02. > :02:05.over the park, unfortunately. What you don't want to happen is to go
:02:06. > :02:08.behind against a Leicester side because then it plays into their
:02:09. > :02:14.hands. They can play counter-attack and get people behind the ball then,
:02:15. > :02:21.release Vardy and Mahrez further up the pitch. Then it's difficult. He's
:02:22. > :02:25.a good guy and he's got the lads back together. It's a confidence
:02:26. > :02:30.thing. Like I've always said, if we get the momentum we'll be all right.
:02:31. > :02:33.Not many teams can challenge us at our best, especially at home.
:02:34. > :02:39.Everyone has got their togetherness back. We can carry on and kick on.
:02:40. > :02:46.Yes, indeed. Leicester playing like champions. David Shakespeare, what a
:02:47. > :02:51.start. Look at those names who have won their first four Premier League
:02:52. > :02:54.fixtures in charge. Not bad at all. They are going well, Leicester,
:02:55. > :02:59.suddenly. A up could of fabulous goals to boot? They were much better
:03:00. > :03:04.than Stoke were today. Two brilliant goals. What a strike that is from
:03:05. > :03:07.Ndidi. The keeper has no chance whatsoever. He dives. He gets
:03:08. > :03:13.nowhere near it at all. This is one hell of a finish from Vardy. Gets
:03:14. > :03:17.the wrong side. Johnson doesn't seem him coming. What a volley that is.
:03:18. > :03:23.Confidence. Four goals, four games. Yes. He's firing again, no doubt
:03:24. > :03:29.about that. Two superb goals. Difference confidence makes.
:03:30. > :03:35.Absolutely. Demarai Gray came in late, Albrighton wasn't feel too
:03:36. > :03:41.well. He performed brilliantly He has been unlucky he hasn't been part
:03:42. > :03:46.of the three previous wins they had. Played for England under-21s. Good
:03:47. > :03:49.English talent. When he runs at people he is frightening. Flicks it
:03:50. > :03:53.around his opponent. He is straight at you. Goes for the jugular. Good
:03:54. > :03:58.defending. Denies him there. This is the area he wants to be, the central
:03:59. > :04:02.position. Whips it, that is a great save to deny him. He's a real plus
:04:03. > :04:05.point for them. Not a good day for Stoke.
:04:06. > :04:06.Bottom of the table Sunderland need to make up a seven point gap
:04:07. > :04:07.They faced Watford, who've struggled in recent weeks,
:04:08. > :04:09.taking just one point from their last four.
:04:10. > :04:24.COMMENTATOR: Watford top-scorer Troy Deeney begins on the bench having
:04:25. > :04:33.returned from a week off ill on Monday. There are three changes,
:04:34. > :04:37.Holebas and Amrabat come in. It was announced that Tom Cleverley will
:04:38. > :04:40.join permanently in the summer. Lamine Kone is back for Sunderland
:04:41. > :04:46.having missed their last game with a knee injury. The Larsson moves to
:04:47. > :04:49.the bench. Jermain Defoe scored in his first England appearance since
:04:50. > :05:00.2013 last weekend. Both he and Sunderland have failed to find the
:05:01. > :05:11.net in their last four league games. Januzaj. Up against Holebas. Getting
:05:12. > :05:17.it in towards Defoe. Kaboul left it. Gomes had to react. I think he was
:05:18. > :05:23.expecting Kaboul to intervene here. Nerves at the back for Watford early
:05:24. > :05:28.on. Understandable that they have kept one clean sheet in their last
:05:29. > :05:39.18 Premier League games. Capoue for Watford. Inside of Gibson, as well.
:05:40. > :05:46.It's Doucoure, Niang. Nice turn. Niang! Firsted away by Pickford.
:05:47. > :05:52.Still alive for Watford with Doucoure! Pickford, again, to the
:05:53. > :05:57.rescue. Good work here from Pickford after a neat turn and hit from
:05:58. > :06:03.Niang. Was the better save. Down ever so quickly to Parry from
:06:04. > :06:11.Doucoure. Cleverley. Cleverley. Here's Capoue. Okaka. Cleverley has
:06:12. > :06:17.made his way into the centre. Back for Capoue instead. Thought about
:06:18. > :06:22.hitting it. Does now! It wasn't too far away from Etienne Capoue. This
:06:23. > :06:31.was travelling, but I think Pickford always knew it was just bending
:06:32. > :06:37.wide. Well won by Jones, on for Januzaj. Still Januzaj - deflected!
:06:38. > :06:41.It just dribbles wide. Craig Cathcart getting in the way of it.
:06:42. > :06:51.But almost sending it into his own net. Good positive play here from
:06:52. > :06:57.Adnan Januzaj. Gibson's corner. Space here for Januzaj. Watford ask
:06:58. > :07:04.for a free-kick. Nothing doing. Amrabat on the charge for him here.
:07:05. > :07:10.He has plenty in support as well. He spotted Niang. Niang. Pickford down
:07:11. > :07:16.smartly, again. Sunderland very nearly caught napping on the
:07:17. > :07:20.counter-attack. Decent strike, but you would expect Pickford to make
:07:21. > :07:24.the block given the form he's been in this season.
:07:25. > :07:38.Niang. Okaka in the middle. Niang. It's off Kone.
:07:39. > :07:46.Cleverley's corner. Pickford comes, gets just about enough on it.
:07:47. > :07:57.Success, back in. Away for another Watford corner. Cleverley whips it
:07:58. > :08:05.in. Oh, a free header - off the bar. Back it and in! Miguel Britos, sends
:08:06. > :08:15.a surge of relief around Vicarage Road. It's his first ever goal for
:08:16. > :08:20.Watford. What a big one it is, too. A free header for Okaka. Diverted on
:08:21. > :08:35.to the crossbar. Britos had the chance to steer in from close-range.
:08:36. > :08:40.Doucoure. Nicely done by Okaka. Through for Success to chase.
:08:41. > :08:47.Pickford with a very important save. Danger still not fully away. Sent
:08:48. > :08:51.just over the top by Doucoure. Success was through on goal here.
:08:52. > :08:56.Pickford has kept Sunderland in the game with that save. This wasn't far
:08:57. > :09:04.away from Doucoure either. In fact, it got a deflection. Chase here.
:09:05. > :09:13.Good turn. Good pass as well. Januzaj. What a tame effort. Doesn't
:09:14. > :09:21.he know it. Chances few and far between for Sunderland this
:09:22. > :09:27.afternoon. Januzaj fluffs his lines. Catching practice for Gomes.
:09:28. > :09:37.Borini. Borini! Forces a top stop out of Heurelho Gomes. They've had
:09:38. > :09:44.precious few chances this afternoon, Sunderland. Borini's snapshot forces
:09:45. > :09:47.Gomes into action. Disappointed we lost. Didn't think there was much in
:09:48. > :09:50.the game at all. I thought we deserved something out of the game.
:09:51. > :09:54.The boys worked hard to get something from it. Set-pieces were
:09:55. > :09:58.always going to be the difficulty. They are in the lands of the giants,
:09:59. > :10:03.Watford. To be fair, we have done a good job on it for most of the game.
:10:04. > :10:10.One we turned off. One is too many. It's Costly. Was in the right place
:10:11. > :10:14.at the right moment. I went inside the box, the second post, the ball
:10:15. > :10:18.dropped there. I was in the right moment.
:10:19. > :10:22.TRANSLATION: Very deserved. There are no doubts about this. We created
:10:23. > :10:26.four or five chances in the first half. We should have scored at least
:10:27. > :10:31.two goals. Because we didn't do this we allowed them too much in the
:10:32. > :10:36.second-half. About being deserved winners, no doubt about this. Rave
:10:37. > :10:40.You said you needed to win one of your next two games. You failed to
:10:41. > :10:44.do so today. How much pressure does it put on the next match for you?
:10:45. > :10:49.I've said it, haven't I. That's it. That's what you do. We have to win
:10:50. > :10:53.another game. A nerve settling victory for Watford given their
:10:54. > :10:57.recent form. It could have been more but for Pickford? You have to say,
:10:58. > :11:03.looking now that David Moyes putting a brave face on it, that Sunderland
:11:04. > :11:08.will go down. There will be clubs chasing this fella. This is Niang,
:11:09. > :11:11.what a purchase he has been as well coming in on-loan in the transfer
:11:12. > :11:15.window for Watford. No points recently for them. It was vital
:11:16. > :11:21.today. Pickford was there. A great save there, low-down. To his right.
:11:22. > :11:27.Niang, again. He would test him. You have to be smart, get your angles
:11:28. > :11:32.right there. Success coming through. Comes out, smothers him. He looks
:11:33. > :11:35.really sharp and bright. He is desperate to keep clean sheets.
:11:36. > :11:39.Today it was a set-piece. He can do nothing with this one. Britos coming
:11:40. > :11:45.in at the far-post and tucking it. No-one near him. Just onside? For me
:11:46. > :11:51.he's just onside. The goalkeeper is obscured. Just about keeps him
:11:52. > :11:55.onside. Britos just simple tap-in for him. Watford up to 12th.
:11:56. > :11:59.Sunderland doomed, are they? They are doomed. They have been flirting
:12:00. > :12:02.with relegation for a number of years now. The seven points from
:12:03. > :12:04.safety, nine games left. Can't see it at all. Can't score goals. No.
:12:05. > :12:07.Big struggle. Despite going 18 league games
:12:08. > :12:09.unbeaten, Manchester United remained four points off
:12:10. > :12:11.a Champions League place. They faced West Brom,
:12:12. > :12:24.who've won twice at Old Trafford COMMENTATOR: Jose Mourinho says his
:12:25. > :12:28.team selection topd was easy because he didn't have any other options.
:12:29. > :12:32.Mata's groin surgery confirmed last night. Latest in a long line of
:12:33. > :12:39.injuries and suspension that is have hit Manchester United right at the
:12:40. > :12:49.start of a month when they will play nine tems times in the next 30 days.
:12:50. > :12:57.Tony Pulis said the starting XI still cost over ?200 million.
:12:58. > :13:03.Fellaini, Martial. Dawson. Looking for Rashford. It will fall for
:13:04. > :13:08.Lingard. Just too high. It's the first shot in anger of the game.
:13:09. > :13:12.Lingard, who scored against West Brom last season here at Old
:13:13. > :13:16.Trafford, part of the new generation. Made his England debut
:13:17. > :13:20.in Gareth Southgate's first game in charge. Despite all the injury
:13:21. > :13:22.problems at the moment, still no place in the starting XI today for
:13:23. > :13:37.Wayne Rooney. Here's Lingard, headed away by
:13:38. > :13:45.Evans. Here's Valencia. Lingard's cross. It's Martial's header. It's
:13:46. > :13:47.just off target. Very good positioning from the Frenchman,
:13:48. > :13:55.creeping in off the left-wing, just off target.
:13:56. > :14:14.McClean. Robson-Kanu. He's turned well here. Chadli, again. Fletcher,
:14:15. > :14:19.Robson-Kanu, back out to Chadli. Dawson is in the box. This is
:14:20. > :14:25.Fletcher. He couldn't pull the trigger properly against his old
:14:26. > :14:29.club. Scored 24 goals during his Manchester United days, Darren
:14:30. > :14:38.Fletcher. I don't think that was going on targets anyway. It hit Eric
:14:39. > :14:44.Bailly. Carrick, Fellaini. Rashford. Good ball to Lingard. Mkhitaryan.
:14:45. > :14:49.McClean dove in there and Fellaini puts it wide. In a game of precious
:14:50. > :14:55.few chances, this certainly counts as one. But, if anything, it was his
:14:56. > :14:59.team-mate, Mkhitaryan, lying on the ground in front of him, that made
:15:00. > :15:03.that an even more difficult shot. Manchester United have already drawn
:15:04. > :15:08.more games this season than in the whole of last season. If it was to
:15:09. > :15:10.finish level today it would be 11 draws from 28 league games this
:15:11. > :15:23.campaign. Martial. Steadies himself. It took a deflection on the way
:15:24. > :15:29.through, he claims. Mike Dean says goal kick. Not only did it hit the
:15:30. > :15:30.opponent, it might have hit an arm on the way through, but goal kick is
:15:31. > :15:41.the decision of the officials. Mkhitaryan gets it back from
:15:42. > :15:47.Carrick. Couldn't control it. Mkhitaryan... Couldn't find the net.
:15:48. > :15:52.Mkhitaryan did everything right there. It's a good save by Ben
:15:53. > :15:57.Foster. It came out and was smothered. The goalkeeper definitely
:15:58. > :15:59.gets a touch and that's what forces Jose Mourinho to throw his pen away
:16:00. > :16:13.in disgust. Mkhitaryan once more. Trying to create the space. That was
:16:14. > :16:19.on target as well and it needed saving from Ben Foster. Really good
:16:20. > :16:23.shot from Marcus Rashford. The sun in his eyes as well, Ben Foster. Did
:16:24. > :16:31.well to palm it away. Into the last five minutes now.
:16:32. > :16:38.It's a sight of goal from Fletcher, it hit the crossbar. What a moment
:16:39. > :16:43.that could have been for Darren Fletcher. And David De Gea, who's
:16:44. > :16:50.been a virtual spectator for the whole game, almost fumbled that into
:16:51. > :16:54.his own net. His Valencia. It's a lot louder in here now. Martial
:16:55. > :17:05.couldn't get there. This is Rashford. Away by Fletcher. Won by
:17:06. > :17:16.Young. It's a free kick, it's going to be a booking as well. Yellow card
:17:17. > :17:19.for Jake Livermore. A smiling moment between Mourinho and pumas. Now
:17:20. > :17:30.Marcus Rashford, hoping to grab a headline moment. He nearly did, as
:17:31. > :17:35.well. Saved by Ben Foster, not for the first time today.
:17:36. > :17:41.We saw you smiling with Tony Pulis. Did you cancel each other out today?
:17:42. > :17:48.I don't know what you mean. What do you mean by that? Two teams evenly
:17:49. > :17:54.balanced today? You think so? I'm asking you. Do you think so, really?
:17:55. > :17:59.Do you think that's a question? You were smiling with him at the end.
:18:00. > :18:03.He's my friend. I was not speaking about the game. We went across the
:18:04. > :18:08.midfield line once in 90 minutes and the other team is for 90 minutes
:18:09. > :18:11.with the ball, in the opponent's half, trying and trying and trying.
:18:12. > :18:16.You are telling me that one team cancelled the other one and each
:18:17. > :18:20.other. We didn't have to defend. We're really, really pleased with
:18:21. > :18:23.the effort and organisation and the performers. The one disappointing is
:18:24. > :18:27.I think we have players who imposition can do better than what
:18:28. > :18:31.they did today. However, they were concentrating so much on the other
:18:32. > :18:35.side of it, I'm not sure, but we are delighted with the point. You could
:18:36. > :18:41.have had a goal on your return to Old Trafford today. It was a decent
:18:42. > :18:45.shot but slipped through and unfortunately for him it hit the bar
:18:46. > :18:52.but it wasn't to be and it's a great point. We beat everyone on quality
:18:53. > :18:56.of play and possession, creation, ambition, we beat everyone, but
:18:57. > :19:02.then, you are right, we draw too many matches. Did these two teams
:19:03. > :19:07.cancel each other out? It was one-sided but it wasn't the most
:19:08. > :19:13.thrilling encounter, was it? No, it was a very poor game but the same
:19:14. > :19:17.old story, just united, isn't it? Dropping points at home, draw after
:19:18. > :19:22.draw after draw. They got into decent positions. West Brom have
:19:23. > :19:28.been brilliant for large, most of the season. United couldn't break
:19:29. > :19:33.them down. They were very, very wasteful in the final third will
:19:34. > :19:40.stop its frustrating, it's happened so many times this season. Again,
:19:41. > :19:45.second half, it didn't change. Men behind the ball again, West Brom,
:19:46. > :19:50.they couldn't find a way through. So wasteful, as I said, in that final
:19:51. > :20:01.third. Martin Jol then Carrick, and Mkhitaryan, Rooney with a poor pass
:20:02. > :20:06.-- Martial, then Carrick. Mkhitaryan has a good opportunity and you can
:20:07. > :20:10.see what Mourinho things of that when it goes in the back of the net.
:20:11. > :20:15.A very frustrating day for him. There's been a lot of those at Old
:20:16. > :20:19.Trafford this season. 19 games unbeaten but they haven't really
:20:20. > :20:22.progressed 19 games unbeaten but they are still insist position and
:20:23. > :20:28.it's been a problem for them all season, other than Ibrahimovic, 15,
:20:29. > :20:33.the second top scorer with six goals. They have to rekindle that
:20:34. > :20:34.are of playing at Old Trafford. You couldn't get go there and get a
:20:35. > :20:39.result. We finish with what can only be
:20:40. > :20:42.described as mid-table clash - tenth placed Southampton hosted 11th
:20:43. > :20:55.placed Bournemouth in Jay Rodriguez starts today in place
:20:56. > :20:59.of Gabbiadini, who is injured. Bournemouth are unbeaten in three
:21:00. > :21:03.and unchanged today. Joshua King has scored eight Premier League goals
:21:04. > :21:05.since the turn of the year. Going into the weekend only Harry Kane and
:21:06. > :21:14.Romelu Lukaku had scored more with 11 H. -- 11 each. Southampton at
:21:15. > :21:19.home for the first time since the 4th of February today, for the south
:21:20. > :21:23.coast derby, which Bournemouth have never managed to win away at
:21:24. > :21:28.Southampton. Now Bertrand, with a passing to Tadic now. Collected by
:21:29. > :21:33.Rodriguez. The red and white shirts flooding forwards but Rodriguez,
:21:34. > :21:37.struck firmly. Boruc right behind it. All the attacking play so far in
:21:38. > :21:43.the match is coming from Southampton. They hung on to get a
:21:44. > :21:47.draw at Manchester United. They've won back-to-back games since with a
:21:48. > :21:52.clean sheet last time out against Swansea. Good play by King there.
:21:53. > :21:57.Harassing Ward-Prowse to win the ball back. Bournemouth get a free
:21:58. > :21:59.kick. Bournemouth have gone looking for it a little bit more in the last
:22:00. > :22:10.few minutes. Off the head of Stephens. Steve Cook
:22:11. > :22:18.happy to let than one roll-out for a corner kick. Fraser to take the
:22:19. > :22:25.corner. Almost done. Off the line. A vital clearance. By Steven Davis,
:22:26. > :22:33.the Southampton. That's how close they were. This will give you an
:22:34. > :22:34.even better idea. Surman stretched and Davis made sure it didn't cross
:22:35. > :22:51.the line. Here comes Southampton, now Cedric.
:22:52. > :22:56.The little lay-off. The shot from Tadic there clipping the outside of
:22:57. > :23:04.the post. That's the closest Southampton have come.
:23:05. > :23:10.Forward by Tadic, chased by Rodriguez. He'll be the first one
:23:11. > :23:16.there. Good save, Artur Boruc. Excellent play all round. The
:23:17. > :23:21.attacking move from Southampton, first-time shot from Rodriguez,
:23:22. > :23:22.bringing the best out of Boruc and keeping it goalless, with half-time
:23:23. > :23:32.on the horizon. Joshua King gets the better of
:23:33. > :23:37.Yoshida. Its king for Bournemouth. A great chance here. Afobe put it
:23:38. > :23:44.wide. What a chance. Bournemouth will do well to get a better one
:23:45. > :23:51.than that today. And Yoshida finally beating in the challenge by King,
:23:52. > :23:59.got away, saw Afobe. Picked him out, but he couldn't find the bottom
:24:00. > :24:04.corner. Yoshida unsure where to go. Davis, into Redmond. Redmond looks
:24:05. > :24:08.to light up this match. Brings the save. Tadic almost there.
:24:09. > :24:13.Ward-Prowse guides it wide. It was Nathan Redmond who brought the save
:24:14. > :24:16.from the Bournemouth goalkeeper and when the ball came out to James
:24:17. > :24:24.Ward-Prowse he just guided it wide of the post. Southampton have scored
:24:25. > :24:26.only 14 goals at home all season. Only Middlesbrough have scored
:24:27. > :24:32.fewer, with a dozen going into this weekend of fixtures.
:24:33. > :24:39.Fraser, bursting into the penalty area. Yoshida did well to hold him
:24:40. > :24:46.up there. Davis under pressure. Wilshere goes for it. Smith goes for
:24:47. > :24:49.it, smacks the post. Southampton scramble it away from in front of
:24:50. > :24:56.the own goal and in the end Gosling blasts it wide. What a close run
:24:57. > :25:01.thing therefore Southampton. Hanging on a bit at the back. With
:25:02. > :25:10.Bournemouth pushing forward, the ball falling invitingly to Marc
:25:11. > :25:15.Pugh, as they bounced off the post. Off the head of Bertrand, collected
:25:16. > :25:20.by Wilshere. Away from Tadic, Wilshere still going, sliding it
:25:21. > :25:24.through. Bournemouth appealing for a penalty. Jonathan Moss had a long,
:25:25. > :25:29.long think about it before making the award. Jack Welsh are trying to
:25:30. > :25:34.force his way through against Tadic and was there a touch by Bertrand on
:25:35. > :25:41.the player running into the penalty area? Barely a touch on the
:25:42. > :25:51.Bournemouth player. Bournemouth with the chance to go ahead, and Harry
:25:52. > :25:54.Arter has missed it by a mile. That's the third penalty Bournemouth
:25:55. > :26:07.have missed this season. Just as he goes to take it, a big dybbuk comes
:26:08. > :26:12.up out of the penalty spot. -- a big dybbuk. You have to take chances
:26:13. > :26:17.like that. Arter's flick, Fraser knocks it on. Jack Welsh,
:26:18. > :26:26.Bournemouth starting to threaten again. Good save from Forster. Now
:26:27. > :26:29.Southampton survived. That was a good save from Fraser Forster,
:26:30. > :26:34.beautifully struck by Harry Arter, looking to make amends for his
:26:35. > :26:43.penalty misfortune. I think we can lose this game, we can win, we have
:26:44. > :26:52.a good opportunity to score and without scoring, we took confidence
:26:53. > :26:59.and it was difficult to finish this game. Four matches in row unbeaten,
:27:00. > :27:03.it could have been three points? It could have been three. We weren't
:27:04. > :27:06.great the first half but we sprung to life second-half and dominated
:27:07. > :27:11.the game. We had some great chances and really should have put the game
:27:12. > :27:17.to bed. One of those chances was the penalty that was missed, and on
:27:18. > :27:25.April Fools' Day we reveal that St Mary's sliding penalty spot. It's a
:27:26. > :27:30.standing foot has slipped, it's lifted the ball and he has guided.
:27:31. > :27:35.It's remarkable. Harry Arter there will not be... It will be a mystery,
:27:36. > :27:42.what the hell happened. It's a different Harry but the same result.
:27:43. > :27:49.Same penalty spot,... Same position. The groundsman won't thank me,
:27:50. > :27:53.another divot comes up and Harry lifts it and puts it over.
:27:54. > :27:59.Remarkable similarity. Both these teams will be happy, mid-table
:28:00. > :28:03.finish. Acceptable. I think so, Southampton tense, Bournemouth are
:28:04. > :28:07.11th. Bournemouth had enough chances in the second half to have won that
:28:08. > :28:11.game today but Southampton struggled to score goals at home. Okada, we
:28:12. > :28:15.are more or less out of time so Martin, thank you very much, Alan,
:28:16. > :28:20.thank you very much indeed. Before we leave you we will look at the
:28:21. > :28:23.Premier League table. Chelsea's lead over Tottenham is down to seven
:28:24. > :28:28.points, while Liverpool are up to third. Manchester United's draw
:28:29. > :28:32.leaves them four points adrift of the final Champions League place.
:28:33. > :28:38.Hull move level with Swansea but bottom side Sunderland are now seven
:28:39. > :28:41.points from safety. Alys four points of clear of trouble while Leicester
:28:42. > :28:46.Rice to 30s. What the Sunday papers have to say. The expressive one of
:28:47. > :28:52.several papers to declare the title race back on. The Telegraph focuses
:28:53. > :28:56.on Jose Mourinho's scathing attack on Manchester United's misfiring
:28:57. > :28:59.forwards. And they Mahrez considering approaches from United
:29:00. > :29:07.and Chelsea, with the Times claiming both clubs would play his Barcelona
:29:08. > :29:11.release clause of ?170 million -- Neymar is considering approaches.
