:00:25. > :00:44.COMMENTATOR: What a turn, what a goal!
:00:45. > :00:45.COMMENTATOR: Look at that. Oh, look at that!
:00:46. > :00:50.Just six weeks of the season remain and everything still to play for.
:00:51. > :00:53.Goals are our business - and we've seen plenty today.
:00:54. > :00:57.No shortage of Premier League goals in the studio as well.
:00:58. > :00:59.437 if we're counting - and these two certainly are.
:01:00. > :01:01.Alan Shearer is joined by Frank Lampard, making his debut
:01:02. > :01:05.Spurs were chasing a 12th straight home win to keep
:01:06. > :01:07.the pressure on leaders Chelsea, who face Manchester United tomorrow.
:01:08. > :01:11.Opponents Bournemouth have yet to win on the road in 2017.
:01:12. > :01:25.The 50th consecutive White Hart Lane victory in all competitions would
:01:26. > :01:29.surpass Tottenham's record-setting 1987, close the gap at the top end
:01:30. > :01:33.four points and leave Bournemouth looking over their shoulders at the
:01:34. > :01:39.relegation rat Pack. Harry Kane's league start is perfectly timed,
:01:40. > :01:44.fully fit after his ankle injury, looking for another goal. Kyle
:01:45. > :01:47.Walker is also back. Unchanged for the visitors. Junior Stanislas,
:01:48. > :01:51.sidelined since January with a groin strain, comes in for Ryan Fraser.
:01:52. > :01:57.Josh King has scored 11 in his last 13 games. They've only beaten Spurs
:01:58. > :02:04.ones, in the FA Cup in 1957. They haven't won anywhere on their
:02:05. > :02:13.travels since New Year's Eve. Spurs have conceded just eight goals here
:02:14. > :02:18.this season. 22 in all, best defence in the Premier League. Threatening
:02:19. > :02:25.from wide positions, of course. Dembele gave that some crack. Too
:02:26. > :02:32.much space for Dembele. The keeper did very well, because came through
:02:33. > :02:40.the forest of legs. No wins in six away from home. For Eddie Howe's
:02:41. > :02:41.team. They've conceded 69 goals, only Hull and Swansea have conceded
:02:42. > :02:55.more. France's let it go out of play,
:02:56. > :03:00.because he was sure it was a goal kick. -- Francis has let it go out
:03:01. > :03:03.of play. Just over a quarter of an hour played. He was absolutely
:03:04. > :03:12.convinced it was a Bournemouth ball. It came off Harry Arter's ball for
:03:13. > :03:17.me. Definitely a corner. What a mistake to make, if they score here.
:03:18. > :03:21.Bournemouth won't be happy at all. All the Wirral to the near post. A
:03:22. > :03:26.touch from Dembele. Tottenham ahead. It's been coming since kick-off.
:03:27. > :03:35.Bournemouth unhappy at the decision but a corner kick was given. It was
:03:36. > :03:42.rifled in. Left with too much space. Zonal marking, he was left with too
:03:43. > :03:49.much space. Dembele's first goal since November 2015. One of so many
:03:50. > :03:53.Tottenham players who have had a very good season, Dembele. An
:03:54. > :04:02.opportunity for Tottenham to pressurise Chelsea today.
:04:03. > :04:15.Around the outside. 2-0. Brim full of confidence. Son Heung-min makes
:04:16. > :04:24.it 2-0 to Spurs. Two goals in three minutes.
:04:25. > :04:32.That's 19 goals in a remarkable season for him. 12 months ago, he
:04:33. > :04:35.simply wouldn't have attempted this run. Given away cheaply by
:04:36. > :04:39.Bournemouth. He went through the gears and beat the goalkeeper from a
:04:40. > :04:43.fairly tight angle. He's got 11 goals in his last 16 now. Boruc
:04:44. > :04:57.didn't cover himself with glory here. It's all Spurs.
:04:58. > :05:07.Disguised across the far post. Too far for up Afobe, but a good
:05:08. > :05:11.bawling, really dangerous. A bit of disguising it. He might have pushed
:05:12. > :05:16.it down the line, but he didn't. A really good bawling. Eddie Howe, as
:05:17. > :05:25.player and manager, has now been involved in 641 games. A lovely
:05:26. > :05:30.touch, Eriksen, Boruc got down. Good football by Spurs. Lovely touch by
:05:31. > :05:36.Harry Kane. Took it first time, Eriksen. He needed to. Last time
:05:37. > :05:41.Spurs won 14 consecutive home games was 1987, the days of Clive Allen. I
:05:42. > :05:45.was with Clive this week. He's purring about this Tottenham side at
:05:46. > :05:50.the moment. Think they can go onto really big things, even if the title
:05:51. > :05:58.eludes them this season. He's here with his cousin Paul Soliai, club
:05:59. > :06:03.ambassadors. -- his cousin Paul today, club ambassadors. Deserved a
:06:04. > :06:14.goal. Absolutely hammered it over. It was a beautiful move. From Spurs
:06:15. > :06:17.side full flow. So confident and the pressure is back on Chelsea, with
:06:18. > :06:22.this sort of performance. Such a good balance about Spurs these days.
:06:23. > :06:29.They are more dispassionate team, or clinical this season than they were
:06:30. > :06:39.12 months ago. Dele Alli looking for Kane. Francis is there with him.
:06:40. > :06:47.They've made it three, right at the start of a second half. It's about
:06:48. > :06:53.strength and persistence. Three points beckoned. His sixth goal
:06:54. > :07:02.against Bournemouth. In the last two seasons. Now in 13 for him, and 25
:07:03. > :07:05.this season. Too strong for Francis. Gave himself time and space to crack
:07:06. > :07:14.the shot away. Spurs three, Bournemouth nil. I've been covering
:07:15. > :07:16.Tottenham matches for 30 years, but this is the closest I've seen to
:07:17. > :07:27.Tottenham team capable of winning the title. Back into Harry Kane.
:07:28. > :07:41.Junior the goalkeeper. But a hat-trick at Bournemouth last season
:07:42. > :07:42.. They are almost safe. They are uncomfortably close to the
:07:43. > :07:54.relegation position. It's given away by Bournemouth. They
:07:55. > :08:00.really haven't played that well. Onto Harry Kane's right foot. It
:08:01. > :08:09.dropped down. Good move here by Spurs. Kane's first touch was heavy.
:08:10. > :08:13.The shot away was under pressure. Jack Wilson has gone down injured.
:08:14. > :08:18.He took a wrap from Harry Kane, in what is a bit unseemly here is Spurs
:08:19. > :08:22.fans have been cheering this injury for Jack Wilson, former Arsenal
:08:23. > :08:27.opponents, north London rivalry of course. A sad sight, that. Spurs
:08:28. > :08:32.have a very tricky run ahead. London derbies macro to come for
:08:33. > :08:47.Pochettino's team. Daniels. That's the first shot that
:08:48. > :08:52.the goalkeeper has had to save in the Tottenham penalty box all day
:08:53. > :08:56.long. They've been playing 73 minutes and Bournemouth haven't
:08:57. > :09:04.really been at the races. Dele Alli to Dembele, rarely wasted a parcel
:09:05. > :09:15.day. -- rarely wasted a pass all day. Ben Davies denied, a first
:09:16. > :09:22.league goal for him in this campaign. Son Heung-min, what an
:09:23. > :09:29.excellent afternoon he's had. A lovely turn. Full of trickery,
:09:30. > :09:34.confidence. And finishing ability this season. This is a season where
:09:35. > :09:40.he has really blossomed as a Premier League player. The 24-year-old from
:09:41. > :09:47.South Korea. Very much part of the international side. Good vision.
:09:48. > :09:58.Davies joining in. Vincent Janssen get sit-in. -- gets it in. Two
:09:59. > :10:04.minutes into stoppage time. It's been a long wait for him, a goal in
:10:05. > :10:09.the Premier League from the replay for Vincent Janssen. A huge roar
:10:10. > :10:16.from White Hart Lane to seal a magnificent afternoon. Chelsea, be
:10:17. > :10:20.concerned, because Tottenham are coming at you. This has been a
:10:21. > :10:27.thrilling performance. Bournemouth and very well beaten side, from the
:10:28. > :10:31.very start, through to the very end. Johnson makes it Tottenham four,
:10:32. > :10:45.Bournemouth nil. Fantastic performance. We fully deserved it, a
:10:46. > :10:50.fantastic period in our club. Now we wait for tomorrow. The media,
:10:51. > :10:54.everyone connected with the club, it's easy to read things that we are
:10:55. > :10:59.safe and OK and subconsciously that can be difficult. It's my job to
:11:00. > :11:03.make everyone aware we are not. Three seasons in a row, 20 Premier
:11:04. > :11:07.League goals, how proud are you of that? It's a great achievement.
:11:08. > :11:13.After the first season there was a lot of talk whereby I'll continue it
:11:14. > :11:15.and now it's three in a row. It shows it's where I belong. Six games
:11:16. > :11:20.left now in the Premier League. We have to go full throttle and play
:11:21. > :11:23.like that today, get the wins, get the clean sheets, score goals. We
:11:24. > :11:29.have to wait and see. Who said that one season wonder stuff? Harry Kane
:11:30. > :11:30.joys and illustrious list of players that have scored 20 plus Premier
:11:31. > :11:31.League joys and illustrious list of players
:11:32. > :11:35.that have scored 20 plus Premier League goals in three consecutive
:11:36. > :11:40.seasons. Look who is on their! You know what he has to do now? He has
:11:41. > :11:46.to score 30 plus in three consecutive seasons. No 1's ever
:11:47. > :11:51.done that, have they? Someone has! Frank, welcome. In terms of Spurs,
:11:52. > :11:54.they did what they had to do and did it in style, 12 home wins on the
:11:55. > :11:58.bounce. The first time they've done that in their history. Spurs were
:11:59. > :12:03.fantastic today, they dominated the game from beginning to end. They are
:12:04. > :12:07.playing with real confidence, the youth in their team, pays in their
:12:08. > :12:11.team, the movement, their passing. They were a joy to watch. The really
:12:12. > :12:14.impressive thing, not just their passing and their ability on the
:12:15. > :12:17.ball, we know they have good players, but their movement today
:12:18. > :12:22.was fantastic. We see Vertonghen getting on the ball here. He's
:12:23. > :12:25.looking to try to play forward. Walker has given really good which
:12:26. > :12:28.is higher than the pitch and what the Tottenham wants to do is get the
:12:29. > :12:34.ball in behind the Bournemouth midfield so with the wits Walker has
:12:35. > :12:38.given them, by the time he's coming he's attacking into their box and
:12:39. > :12:40.when you look at the numbers in the box, the reason why Tottenham have
:12:41. > :12:45.four players and the goals this season is because they are in and
:12:46. > :12:48.around it. They are in their covering spaces. There's no
:12:49. > :12:52.pressure. They are moving the ball quickly and efficiently. Walker is
:12:53. > :12:56.now a right winger, not a right back anymore, which has allowed Eriksen,
:12:57. > :13:00.because he's intelligent to come onside. It's behind the Bournemouth
:13:01. > :13:03.midfield, Eriksen is on the move, he knows where he wants it. He wants to
:13:04. > :13:08.go into an area where he can hurt Bournemouth. He gets behind them,
:13:09. > :13:14.gets a shot at goal. Davies on the other side gave great width, pulling
:13:15. > :13:21.people wide. Bournemouth can't cover the width of the pitch. Son
:13:22. > :13:25.Heung-min not not content to sit on the side of the box. They could have
:13:26. > :13:29.had six or seven goals. You won't overly impressed with Bournemouth?
:13:30. > :13:33.Although they played a good side in Tottenham, they turned up expecting
:13:34. > :13:36.to be beaten. 35 points, they think they are safe, they are not, and
:13:37. > :13:40.they didn't turn up today. They didn't put the effort in at all.
:13:41. > :13:46.Didn't close people down. It was a very sloppy performance. His mentor
:13:47. > :13:53.Ruiz Dembele, this is their opening goal, set pieces. No one in and
:13:54. > :13:57.around him at all. Their 1-0 down. Very, very poor. Jack Wilson trying
:13:58. > :14:02.to play outside the boot, very good from Tottenham, but it's far too
:14:03. > :14:06.easy for them. From a Bournemouth point of view, this is what I'm on
:14:07. > :14:11.about, effort, closing down, working hard. Look at them jogging, whether
:14:12. > :14:16.it's done is to ask, Afobe, it's too easy. You can't give good players
:14:17. > :14:21.time on the ball. No protection from Arter or from Wilshere and Frank is
:14:22. > :14:26.right, it should have been seven or eight. Time on the ball again,
:14:27. > :14:30.simple ball in, lovely touch from Harry Kane, but someone has to close
:14:31. > :14:33.down. Someone has to be prepared to put a trickle in. They are getting
:14:34. > :14:37.through that back four with ease. Jogging once again in the second
:14:38. > :14:42.half. No tackles going in, they have to be prepared to crunch people and
:14:43. > :14:45.work hard and to be fair to Arie Harter -- Harry Arter, he was
:14:46. > :14:50.probably the only one who put in a shift for his team today but it's
:14:51. > :14:54.just taking potshots at the goalkeeper, who was also pulling off
:14:55. > :14:58.some good saves. Jack Wilson poor, he does manage to get back in. This
:14:59. > :15:03.is where he gets injured again, a decent chance again from Harry Kane.
:15:04. > :15:07.He goes off injured and that moved a Bournemouth was meant to reignite
:15:08. > :15:12.his career, but I think it's created more issues. 22 league starts, no
:15:13. > :15:16.goals, two assists, it hasn't gone well at all. He's had game time but
:15:17. > :15:20.he hasn't played as well as people expected him to. PFA nominations
:15:21. > :15:24.this week. We've were surprised not to see Dele Alli on there?
:15:25. > :15:33.Yes I think the vote's too soon. You look at the six there, Sanchez in a
:15:34. > :15:37.team that's had a negative season. I think Dele Alli's problem is he had
:15:38. > :15:41.a weaker first half of the season and when the vote's gone in, we
:15:42. > :15:46.haven't seen the form they have. You would think with the technology we
:15:47. > :15:50.have the votes could be cast in the last week of the season. It has
:15:51. > :15:53.never made any sense. Manchester City were looking
:15:54. > :15:55.to move seven points clear of Manchester United in the race
:15:56. > :15:58.for a Champions League place. Pep Guardiola's side
:15:59. > :16:00.were in action at Southampton, who've yet to beat a top six
:16:01. > :16:15.side this season. Gabbiadini has scored six goals in
:16:16. > :16:22.his first five games for the club, before an injury stopped him.
:16:23. > :16:29.Claudio Bravo has not stopped for City, his last save was from Keane
:16:30. > :16:33.in January. Seven out of seven shots since have beaten him. Kompany is
:16:34. > :16:55.back in help and that should be a help.
:16:56. > :17:03.Gabbiadini, Bertrand in the middle and Tadic has wasted the best chance
:17:04. > :17:07.of the game so far. They have barely had the ball, let alone an
:17:08. > :17:11.opportunity up to this point. Gabbiadini into Tadic and for a
:17:12. > :17:17.player of his quality from that position, that is a poor attempt.
:17:18. > :17:32.City have only won two of their last seven matches in all competitions.
:17:33. > :17:42.David Silva, oh, it's wide! It is not a sitter, but you would have
:17:43. > :17:46.expected him to get this on target. Into the side netting from the
:17:47. > :17:54.little Spaniard, much to his manager's frustration. It is his
:17:55. > :18:00.301st game for Manchester City, David Silva, that probably should
:18:01. > :18:07.have been his 50th goal. Sane with a great turn of pace and Forster did
:18:08. > :18:12.brilliantly. Neil Swarbrick in no doubt there was no foul here from
:18:13. > :18:20.Forster. The keeper just does very well. Sane with great pace.
:18:21. > :18:32.Forster's got a hand to it. Forster just got his finger tip to it.
:18:33. > :18:43.Another Manchester City free kick and the foul's are racking up here.
:18:44. > :18:57.Looked at the Achilles heel. That is nasty from Bertrand on Aguero.
:18:58. > :19:04.Aguero's been fouled. Southampton complain, but it is a City free
:19:05. > :19:21.kick. Navas, well hit. Pretty central and
:19:22. > :19:23.rising, Forster would be disappointed not save this. He has
:19:24. > :19:35.done well here. A free header, Kompany scores!
:19:36. > :19:43.Vincent Kompany, Manchester City's captain, heads them in front. And
:19:44. > :19:48.the frustration of his season comes coursing out in his celebration.
:19:49. > :19:53.This means a lot to Vincent Kompany. Forster seemed to be surprised by
:19:54. > :19:59.it. He didn't deal with it. Southampton 0, Manchester City 1.
:20:00. > :20:05.And there could barely be a more popular scorer for the visitors than
:20:06. > :20:08.one Vincent Kompany. Weeks and months of pent up frustration
:20:09. > :20:34.released in the twinkling of an eye. Forster did enough. Silva. Great
:20:35. > :20:40.block by Stevens. Close to falling further behind. Aguero in all kinds
:20:41. > :20:48.of space in the middle. Forster had to be brave and he is hurt.
:20:49. > :21:19.Only Southampton's second corner of the game.
:21:20. > :21:31.A free header. Yoshida straight at Bravo. In that sequence of seven
:21:32. > :21:46.shots on target, all of which have beaten him, has been broken.
:21:47. > :21:56.De Bruyne is away. Sane to his left. Here he is. Great goal. Brilliant,
:21:57. > :22:02.brilliant breakaway goal. De Bruyne started it and then set up Sane to
:22:03. > :22:13.finish it. Southampton ripped apart here. That is brilliant from De
:22:14. > :22:18.Bruyne. And unselfishly put it on a plate for Sane. To stroke in his
:22:19. > :22:25.ninth goal of the season. And surely put this game beyond Southampton.
:22:26. > :22:45.Counterattacks are rarely quicker or more deadly than that.
:22:46. > :23:00.Aguero! 3-0! Scoring made simple. Manchester City go third. Aguero
:23:01. > :23:04.nodding in from close range. It is a bit harsh on Southampton, who have
:23:05. > :23:13.played their part in the game. But just so sharp, Manchester City. And
:23:14. > :23:24.Kevin De Bruyne right at the heart of it. Aguero attacked it and no one
:23:25. > :23:36.was saving that. De Bruyne with two quick-fire assists. We were able
:23:37. > :23:43.finally to make 50, 25 passes in a row. Of course in front we could be
:23:44. > :23:49.better with the quality of our play is different and have more control.
:23:50. > :23:54.But in this stadium against that team, this team, so how complicated
:23:55. > :23:57.it is and winning three, so it is important for our qualification for
:23:58. > :24:03.the Champions League. It was so important. It was not a good day for
:24:04. > :24:10.us. Congratulations for Manchester City, we know it is a good team, but
:24:11. > :24:14.we gave today the opportunity I think for Manchester City, it was
:24:15. > :24:19.not enough for us. That moment looked like it meant a lot to you?
:24:20. > :24:24.Yes, because I'm always in a situation where I feel I want to
:24:25. > :24:28.give so much you know? You feel like you're restrained at times, but I
:24:29. > :24:33.will praise myself for that I keep positive and keep going no matter
:24:34. > :24:37.what. It seeps there could be no more popular scorer, the captain of
:24:38. > :24:43.Manchester City, one of the senior guys and it has been an awful time
:24:44. > :24:48.for you. Yes, but you know the only things I want to remember are the
:24:49. > :24:54.positive experiences, if I have to work 15 years just to experience one
:24:55. > :24:57.such moment I will do it gladly. It is something not many people get to
:24:58. > :25:03.experience and it is worth every minute of hard work. Great to see
:25:04. > :25:07.him back. Alan, there was one talking point that didn't make a
:25:08. > :25:17.difference to game, a penalty appeal in the first half for Manchester
:25:18. > :25:26.City. The referee said no. The referee got it spot on. Sane great
:25:27. > :25:31.pace, but great goalkeeping from Forster. He pushes it out for a
:25:32. > :25:37.corner. There is an angle coming up where you will see it best. He might
:25:38. > :25:42.touch Sane. Might. But he only touches him as a consequence of that
:25:43. > :25:46.by touching the ball first and then touching him. It is a very good save
:25:47. > :25:52.and a good decision. Never a penalty. Agreed Frank? Yes, he got a
:25:53. > :25:59.clear touch on the ball. Kompany came back, good to see him back. It
:26:00. > :26:03.must be a frustrating time. Delighted for Vincent, as a man, as
:26:04. > :26:06.a captain of the club, he brings authority at the back. We talk about
:26:07. > :26:10.Manchester City with Pep Guardiola and playing out from the back and
:26:11. > :26:15.how good they want to be from the back. The first rule of defending is
:26:16. > :26:22.to defend and he is the best defendser at the club. He has been
:26:23. > :26:25.injured and when you see Kompany there, you feel stronger about them
:26:26. > :26:31.at the back. It shows he can pass from the back. As a player, this
:26:32. > :26:36.year he has chopped and changed a lot and a fit Kompany can only be
:26:37. > :26:41.good for them. That has been his big issue, getting on to the pitch. You
:26:42. > :26:49.played with John Terry and him and I see them both as great leaders. Yes
:26:50. > :26:52.I left Chelsea and went to Manchester City and saw another
:26:53. > :26:57.great leader. That eset standards on and off the pitch. When new players
:26:58. > :27:01.they come in, the first thing you see is the captain. As any guy, it
:27:02. > :27:07.is very lonely when you have been out injured for a long time. So if
:27:08. > :27:11.there is any guy deserve it, it is him. Southampton, a difficult
:27:12. > :27:15.afternoon. Second half they were excellent. They were well in the
:27:16. > :27:21.game, but the second half Manchester City put their foot on the pedal.
:27:22. > :27:40.Shaqiri, lovely ball. Sigurdsson's shot. Forces the save. Good control
:27:41. > :27:43.and a good save from Schmeichel. Right across and Ayew turns it in,
:27:44. > :27:47.but off target. Of the 17 points Hull have
:27:48. > :27:49.won since Marco Silva took charge in January,
:27:50. > :27:52.just one has come away from home. John Roder was at
:27:53. > :28:07.the Bet365 Stadium. Shaqiri got both goals for Stoke
:28:08. > :28:22.when they won at Hull in October, but he has not scored since then.
:28:23. > :28:27.Adam comes into midfield. Will today be the today Marco Silva gets his
:28:28. > :28:32.first away victory since taking charge in January. Stoke have
:28:33. > :28:37.finished ninth for the past three seasons. A return to the top tennis
:28:38. > :28:43.their target. 17th would do nicely for Hull. The position they
:28:44. > :28:52.currently occupy - just above the relegation zone. Marco Arnautovic
:28:53. > :28:59.with the opening goal for Stoke City. Terrific start for the home
:29:00. > :29:04.side. And Arnautovic picks up and you can see here, he only has eyes
:29:05. > :29:08.for goal. He scored in the League Cup here against Hull earlier in the
:29:09. > :29:10.season. Now he has scored in the Premier League against Hull. Stoke
:29:11. > :29:33.1, Hull 0. Lovely ball through. It should have
:29:34. > :29:40.been goal No 2 for Arnautovic and for Stoke. I'm sure there are many
:29:41. > :29:41.inside the stadium who thought that was going to be the second goal for
:29:42. > :29:52.the home team. Markovic with the shot. Well saved.
:29:53. > :30:01.And in the end put behind for the corner by Charlie Adam. Lee Grant
:30:02. > :30:10.with the stop and Adam first to the loose ball.
:30:11. > :30:20.It might drop for Niasse, this is Maguire. Scoops it over. Certainly
:30:21. > :30:25.better from Hull, after their shaky start this afternoon. Somehow, Harry
:30:26. > :30:30.Maguire lofts this one over. Encouraging signs for Marco Silva
:30:31. > :30:34.and the Hull supporters who have made the journey to Stoke this
:30:35. > :30:45.afternoon. Robertson, can't keep hold of it. Here's Shaqiri. Johnson,
:30:46. > :30:52.a lovely ball in. Arnautovic. Stoke again come close to doubling their
:30:53. > :30:55.lead. It remains Stoke one, Hull nil at this early stage of proceedings
:30:56. > :31:04.and Arnautovic could indeed have had a hat-trick.
:31:05. > :31:11.Clucas drives it in towards Niasse. Came off Pieters. He can't keep it
:31:12. > :31:32.in. Corner kick. Clucas turns it across. It needed a
:31:33. > :31:39.finishing touch from Ranocchia. But it does get a finishing touch.
:31:40. > :31:41.Maguire makes it 1-1. And in all honesty that is a goal that has been
:31:42. > :31:54.coming for quite some time. Nicely worked from Hull. Ranocchia
:31:55. > :32:03.couldn't get shot in. Harry Maguire most certainly could. And gives Hull
:32:04. > :32:08.a vital lifeline. Charlie Adam is withdrawn, as is Saido Berahino. And
:32:09. > :32:15.on in their place come John Walters and Peter Crouch. You can hear the
:32:16. > :32:21.reaction from the Stoke fans to withdraw withdrawal of Berahino.
:32:22. > :32:25.They don't like it. Different focus now to Stoke's attack as they come
:32:26. > :32:31.forward with the two Newman on and Walters gets his first touch. Crouch
:32:32. > :32:40.in the middle. Here's Shaqiri. Arnautovic. Chips it in. What a save
:32:41. > :32:47.that is. Crouch can't follow up. Walters almost scoring immediately.
:32:48. > :32:49.Walters with the diving header. Crouch can't get the shot away from
:32:50. > :33:00.the rebound. Walters takes it down nicely. Crouch
:33:01. > :33:06.is in the middle. It's towards Peter Crouch.
:33:07. > :33:15.The double substitution from Mark Hughes works to absolute perfection.
:33:16. > :33:23.Jon Walters the provider. Peter Crouch, the finisher. Well, as soon
:33:24. > :33:29.as this cross came in from Jon Walters, it seemed almost inevitable
:33:30. > :33:37.that Peter Crouch was going to be on the end of it. Rising high, getting
:33:38. > :33:49.their, as Ranocchia couldn't do so. And Stoke are back in front.
:33:50. > :33:57.Grosicki might be in here. The rebound is turned away to safety by
:33:58. > :34:04.Martins Indi. Niasse just beaten to the ball by the Stoke defender.
:34:05. > :34:10.Grosicki was away. Grant able to push it away but it certainly wasn't
:34:11. > :34:14.to safety. Shaqiri through to Arnautovic. Crouch makes the run
:34:15. > :34:20.into the middle. This is Walters. Stoke so close at this late stage in
:34:21. > :34:22.proceedings to getting a third goal, which may very well put this much
:34:23. > :34:35.beyond Hull City. Maguire's header. Picked up by
:34:36. > :34:41.Walters. Arnautovic felt he was fouled thereby Pieters and virtually
:34:42. > :34:46.stopped, waiting for the whistle. Shaqiri drives it in. Oh, brilliant,
:34:47. > :34:54.what an outstanding goal! From Shaqiri. And just moments after
:34:55. > :35:02.Stoke hit the bar, they do get a third goal, and what a third goal as
:35:03. > :35:06.well. That is a strike to talk about for some time to come.
:35:07. > :35:19.Shaqiri looks up into the top corner, beyond the goalkeeper. How
:35:20. > :35:21.about that? Goal number four of the season and it may well secure all
:35:22. > :35:34.three points for Stoke City. First, we need to start defending.
:35:35. > :35:39.After we react well, but when you have a chance like we had in the
:35:40. > :35:44.game, you need to score. You need to score goals to make the difference.
:35:45. > :35:48.Our away form all year hasn't been good enough. We don't need the media
:35:49. > :35:53.to tell us. Our home form has been good. We have three home games and
:35:54. > :35:58.two away games, we still need to pick up points in the two away
:35:59. > :36:02.games. We'll go back on the drain training ground, work hard and
:36:03. > :36:06.hopefully get three points next Saturday. Some of our stuff was
:36:07. > :36:09.really good, it could have been two or three to the good. They had a
:36:10. > :36:14.couple of chances which we dealt with an second-half, they didn't
:36:15. > :36:17.really create anything of note to be honest, even their goals there was a
:36:18. > :36:20.number of ricochets before it eventually found the back of the net
:36:21. > :36:29.and we just needed to make a change, just to get a little bit more threat
:36:30. > :36:34.up top. Johnny Walters poked it on crouch's head and then the game is
:36:35. > :36:36.done from my point of view. Shaqiri scored an outstanding goal. Just to
:36:37. > :36:43.finish the game off and give the game a true reflection. It's a
:36:44. > :36:47.beautiful feeling for everybody I think, also for me, because it was a
:36:48. > :36:54.long time ago when I scored back also against Hull, so I think I'm
:36:55. > :36:58.really happy and proud to score of course beautiful goals but most
:36:59. > :37:04.important thing is in the end the team that wins. Man of the Mac,
:37:05. > :37:08.possibly there. Cracking goal. Four defeats in a row prior to this game
:37:09. > :37:13.for Stoke but they don't tend to get stuck in a rut for too long. They
:37:14. > :37:17.scored three fantastic goals today, got off to a good start, with
:37:18. > :37:21.Arnautovic and a good game but Hull came back into it, got a goal and
:37:22. > :37:25.created chances. We have to look at all three of the goals from Stoke.
:37:26. > :37:29.Lovely ball to Arnautovic, what about this for a finish. The keeper
:37:30. > :37:37.has absolutely no chance whatsoever. I said Hull got into the game, they
:37:38. > :37:41.did, they created chances but their final ball and finishing was poor.
:37:42. > :37:45.Add off, Berahino off, having a poor game and Walters and Crouch came on,
:37:46. > :37:48.a bit of know-how and experience and they were brought on for a reason,
:37:49. > :37:54.to running behind and get balls into the box. That's exactly what they
:37:55. > :37:57.did, from the minute they came on. Just watch, straightaway, comes back
:37:58. > :38:01.into Arnautovic, first thought, get the ball into the box. It's a good
:38:02. > :38:05.header from Walters, good saves and Crouch is unlucky. I said they were
:38:06. > :38:09.good goals but what about this for a pass? Brilliant pass, superb touch
:38:10. > :38:20.Bryan Walters and a superb cross also and a magnificent header from
:38:21. > :38:24.Walters. -- crouch. The keeper has no chance. This is the best corner
:38:25. > :38:28.of the game. This is a touch, the keeper regain has no chance. What an
:38:29. > :38:38.unbelievable strike. Top corner, no chance. That's five goals for
:38:39. > :38:44.Shaqiri. He loves the striker -- he loves to strike and the keeper has
:38:45. > :38:48.no chance. Hull's away form is amazing, they are pretty good at
:38:49. > :38:53.home but awful away. Can you explain it? I can't, they can't explain it.
:38:54. > :38:57.I think obviously doesn't look good on paper, the away form but where
:38:58. > :39:01.Hull are now from where Silva came in and now you feel positive about
:39:02. > :39:05.them, they are creating chances, they deserved to be beaten today but
:39:06. > :39:10.they are creating chances. They are tough to beat at home.
:39:11. > :39:14.A run of just one point from five games had left Swansea in the bottom
:39:15. > :39:16.three ahead of their trip to Watford, who knew victory
:39:17. > :39:18.would all but secure another season of Premier League football.
:39:19. > :39:30.Watford captain Troy Deeney with over 100 goals for the club is back
:39:31. > :39:33.to lead the attack. Relegation. The would almost certainly mean the
:39:34. > :39:36.departure of Gylfi Sigurdsson, whose number of assists compared with the
:39:37. > :39:43.best in all the top European leagues. Sebastian Prodl returns in
:39:44. > :39:46.defence for Watford. The squad includes 14 different nationalities,
:39:47. > :39:51.not easy for manager Walter Mazzarri, who is still learning
:39:52. > :39:54.English. Two midfield changes for Swansea, Jay Fulton and Ki
:39:55. > :40:01.Sung-Yueng replaced Tom Carroll and the injured Jack Cork, but Fernando
:40:02. > :40:04.Llorente is fit to start up front. Swansea have lost their last five
:40:05. > :40:11.away games. It doesn't make pretty reading. Decent bit of flavour, from
:40:12. > :40:16.Leroy Fer. Then it was the Sung-Yeung. He's found Naughton. A
:40:17. > :40:26.good save fight Gomes from Sigurdsson. That was a decent move
:40:27. > :40:30.by Swansea. The Sung-Yeung was involved, then Narsingh, as it came
:40:31. > :40:33.across, Sigurdsson found a bit of space and Heurelho Gomes had to
:40:34. > :40:39.respond. That was the first really dangerous attack of the game. It
:40:40. > :40:43.came from Swansea. Here's Narsingh for Swansea, but this time they've
:40:44. > :40:47.lost it and this is Niang, for Watford. Deeney as to his right.
:40:48. > :40:51.This is where he can be dangerous. He's got a free kick. That must be
:40:52. > :40:55.no more than a foot outside the penalty area. Well, it's no surprise
:40:56. > :41:01.to me that Niang is making Swansea shake a little bit. He can go either
:41:02. > :41:06.way, this number 21, and I just thought for a minute there he was
:41:07. > :41:09.going to score the sort of goal he scored against West Brom ten days
:41:10. > :41:16.ago. It is Niang. While health. Lukasz Fabianski, right behind that.
:41:17. > :41:19.-- it was well held. Although Watford have 37 points, they are due
:41:20. > :41:25.to play three of the top four in their last six games. Won back by
:41:26. > :41:29.Janmaat. Janmaat for Watford, they have people in the middle here.
:41:30. > :41:36.Deeney! Oh, chipped over by Fabianski. A fine piece of football.
:41:37. > :41:42.The Watford captain meeting that first time from a cross by Daryl
:41:43. > :41:47.Janmaat. Well, you can almost feel the tension in the Swansea ranks.
:41:48. > :41:50.They didn't really rise to the occasion last week and Paul Clement
:41:51. > :41:58.is so desperate that they play better today. Sigurdsson's shot.
:41:59. > :42:04.Just able to do things that other players can't. They would be a queue
:42:05. > :42:11.of clubs waiting to sign him in the Premier League, if Swansea were to
:42:12. > :42:16.go down. And now it's Niang. He's got away there from Sigurdsson.
:42:17. > :42:28.Couldn't get away from Folsom. -- Fulton. And now, what an opportunity
:42:29. > :42:35.for Watford. And finally, he's got it in. Etienne Capoue, Watford take
:42:36. > :42:38.the lead in somewhat unexpected circumstances, after 41 minutes.
:42:39. > :42:44.Etienne Capoue had the first chance. I thought for a minute he'd lost the
:42:45. > :42:48.opportunity. But look at this. Goalkeeper committed, saves the
:42:49. > :42:53.first one, Capoue strikes the second one into the back of the net. What a
:42:54. > :42:56.dreadful moment for Alfie Mawson, turning to give it back to his
:42:57. > :43:00.goalkeeper and letting Capoue in their, hits the goalkeeper with his
:43:01. > :43:05.first effort but then he got the second opportunity and scored. Well,
:43:06. > :43:10.I don't think Watford were expecting a giftwrapped goal quite like that.
:43:11. > :43:15.It's brought the crowd to life, anyway. And Cleverley has gone
:43:16. > :43:19.through the middle here. Plays it again to Deeney. Amrabat is coming
:43:20. > :43:22.in from the right-hand side. Capoue is in narrow game. Watford's spirits
:43:23. > :43:35.lifted now. Well, he tried that a few days ago
:43:36. > :43:37.and scored. These are difficult moments now for the team most
:43:38. > :43:50.threatened by relegation. Cleverley, Janmaat, Amrabat has gone
:43:51. > :44:03.down the right outside him. Janmaat tries himself. Lukasz Fabianski
:44:04. > :44:09.denies him. A chant of, one Graham Taylor goes up, whose wife is here
:44:10. > :44:19.today and match has been organised in memoriam between Watford and
:44:20. > :44:25.Aston Villa on 29th of July. Okaka is waiting, they let him go. He's
:44:26. > :44:31.offside. Well, deprived by the linesman's like, on the near side it
:44:32. > :44:37.was raised. Well, he was offside, I think, but goodness me, a good
:44:38. > :44:43.finish by Okaka. It's getting to the point of desperation. The year. --
:44:44. > :44:49.for Swansea, here. Watford have had wins here in their last two home
:44:50. > :44:53.games that have really turned the tide for them. He is Sigurdsson. Is
:44:54. > :44:59.there something for Swansea at last? He's gone right through and couldn't
:45:00. > :45:03.finish. What a difference that might have made to Swansea City. No
:45:04. > :45:08.Swansea player has done this all afternoon. Went clean through the
:45:09. > :45:14.defence, but in hurrying his shot he gave Gomes are pretty easy save.
:45:15. > :45:21.There is the final whistle and Watford can celebrate another year
:45:22. > :45:26.to come in the Premier League. But what can you say about Swansea?
:45:27. > :45:32.They're still stuck in the bomb Tom three and -- bottom three and if
:45:33. > :45:36.they can't play better than that, there is every chance they will stay
:45:37. > :45:42.there. We were missing a clinical edge in the attacking third, whether
:45:43. > :45:45.a decent cross or a bit of be magic in the area to create better
:45:46. > :45:51.opportunities and that for me was the difference. 40 points, you would
:45:52. > :45:57.think the team is safe from any fear of relegation. How proud are you?
:45:58. > :46:02.TRANSLATION: Not until, until the maths says we are safe, then we are
:46:03. > :46:08.not, also because I don't want my players to relax and I want to play
:46:09. > :46:14.with the same formation to get ready for next season. This next game is a
:46:15. > :46:24.must win game, we have five games to go, it is the biggest game the club
:46:25. > :46:30.has had in years. One point from six, the hope seems to be
:46:31. > :46:34.evaporating. Yes their recent form has been bad. Watching them today,
:46:35. > :46:37.they seemed to get everything wrong and a team in their position and
:46:38. > :46:42.with the squad they have got, they need to be at it every week to get
:46:43. > :46:47.out of trouble. They're playing balls here and people are running in
:46:48. > :46:52.different directions. Paul Clement mentioned the clinical edge. There
:46:53. > :46:56.is one player there in the box. Sigurdsson's reaction to get there,
:46:57. > :47:04.he is not sprinting to get on the edge of it. Ball goes in, but bad
:47:05. > :47:10.quality and the cutting edge. Sigurdsson can be a great free kick
:47:11. > :47:14.taker. He gets it wrong and again body language. That is the main
:47:15. > :47:20.worry, you see the body language and you worry about the future weeks.
:47:21. > :47:25.Baston comes on. They have so many things wrong in the game and that
:47:26. > :47:30.culminated in the goal. Mawson thinks he has time. Takes too long
:47:31. > :47:36.and easily taken off him and when you're in the bottom of the league
:47:37. > :47:42.and trying to dig out results, you worry about where they're going. In
:47:43. > :47:47.some ways with, Swansea's slump is shown by the form of Llorente, he
:47:48. > :47:54.was on fire and now he looks lack lustre. Yes they need Llorente. He
:47:55. > :47:58.has managed to run or sprint under 20 metres. That is quite hard in the
:47:59. > :48:05.80 minutes he was on. You consider, as I said, they need him. He is
:48:06. > :48:10.their goal scorer. His head is down. He doesn't come short to show. The
:48:11. > :48:16.defender getting in front of him easily. He had that sluggishness
:48:17. > :48:21.about him all day. The Sigurdsson puts in a good ball. But he doesn't
:48:22. > :48:26.contest it. And that is what he is there for. A sloppy reaction after
:48:27. > :48:31.wards. The ball goes out to him and goes under his foot. He doesn't
:48:32. > :48:37.react quickly. Ends up going off the pitch. He mavenged to blame the sun
:48:38. > :48:42.in the end here. Swansea will have to hope it is cloudy for the next
:48:43. > :48:47.six weeks. He gets one chance and it is a difficult one. You wonder where
:48:48. > :48:51.he is in his head. There was talk about him might moving on. He is
:48:52. > :48:55.probably their saviour this year. But with that performance, they're
:48:56. > :48:59.going to need more out of him to stay up. We have Hull and Swansea
:49:00. > :49:04.and it could be between one of those two to join the others in going
:49:05. > :49:10.down. Let's look at the closing fixtures. What do you think has the
:49:11. > :49:13.best run in? A couple of weeks ago I thought Swansea would survive.
:49:14. > :49:18.Having watched them today and looking at Hull's home record and
:49:19. > :49:26.who they have to my at home, I have got to change my mind and say Hull
:49:27. > :49:35.will survive. You know Paul Clement, has he got what it takes? Yes he
:49:36. > :49:41.showed a lot of passion. He got them organised. The problem is they
:49:42. > :49:47.haven't got the flair. But he will need his big players to perform for
:49:48. > :49:52.him. Alan, a line on Watford, three minutes, 40 points, job done. Last
:49:53. > :49:54.three home games, wins, no goals conceded. I think that is the best
:49:55. > :50:00.Watford can do. Very good. Leaders Chelsea face a familiar foe
:50:01. > :50:13.in Match Of The Day 2. A wonderful goal from Ibrahimovic.
:50:14. > :50:18.Can anyone stop Chelsea? Morrisson smashing it into the net. Firmino
:50:19. > :50:25.onside. What finish. There's commentary of
:50:26. > :50:27.Manchester United versus Chelsea on 5Live and the BBC Sport
:50:28. > :50:29.website from 4pm. Coverage of the World

:52:05. > :52:12.Brother. After unwanted and then unwarranted offfield attention, Ross
:52:13. > :52:18.Barkley has the chance to show how brightly can he shine. Few English
:52:19. > :52:25.defenders have had better seasons than Ben Mee and Michael Keane. If
:52:26. > :52:26.they can stop Lukaku from scoring it will heighten talk, linking Keane
:52:27. > :52:46.with a move here in the summer. Lukaku. First effort of the game by
:52:47. > :52:51.his standards a tame one. Straight down the middle. Burnley have come
:52:52. > :52:57.here trying to do the double over Everton for the first time since
:52:58. > :53:04.they won the league title in 1959/60. They might have a chance
:53:05. > :53:12.with a free kick. In striking distance for somebody of Brady's
:53:13. > :53:19.ability. There was a deflection on it. A big deflection. That is why
:53:20. > :53:25.Robles moved the other way first. Keane attacks it and headed off the
:53:26. > :53:30.line by Barkley. Michael Keane gets away from everybody. That is going
:53:31. > :53:37.in. What a timely back frack from Barkley. -- backtrack. A bright
:53:38. > :53:45.start from the team without a single away win all season. Vokes has the
:53:46. > :53:56.run on Jagielka. Saved by Robles. Sliding out to stop it. Jagielka did
:53:57. > :54:04.well to force him wide. Just a few more point for Sean Dyche to achieve
:54:05. > :54:05.a significant first auburnly staying -- Burnley staying in the Premier
:54:06. > :54:20.League. Holgate forces the save from Heaton.
:54:21. > :54:27.Nothing lucky about the shot. It was a good attempt. So-so first half for
:54:28. > :54:29.both teams. They will both feel they have had chances to score and
:54:30. > :54:45.chances have not been taken. Lukaku, blocked by Ward. The next
:54:46. > :54:50.effort from Holgate blocked by Brady. Three minutes of real Everton
:54:51. > :54:58.statement at the start of the second half. Flick on by Valencia. What a
:54:59. > :55:05.chance. Kept out first time. Was it kept out a second time? No, Mark
:55:06. > :55:12.Clattenburg says it is a goal and another one for Phil Jagielka. Three
:55:13. > :55:19.in three times for the Everton captain. Scruffy goal. But it is
:55:20. > :55:28.certainly well over the line. So is the second one. Have two, Phil!
:55:29. > :55:35.Burnley's resistance broken. Off the post and in despite Heaton's
:55:36. > :55:46.efforts. It runs away from Vokes. Vokes then
:55:47. > :55:50.down. It is a personality. Robles with a ridiculous challenge. Vokes
:55:51. > :56:02.is not threatening the goal. That is stupid from the Everton keeper. Sam
:56:03. > :56:10.Vokes will take the penalty. He can quickly draw them level. Coolly
:56:11. > :56:17.taken by the Welsh international. He ends a run of ten games without a
:56:18. > :56:27.goal. What a big one for Burnley. Game on at Goodison.
:56:28. > :56:43.Here is Mirallas. He scuffed it and Heaton saves. A wonderful pass from
:56:44. > :56:48.Davis. Spotted is early by Baines. It wasn't saved by Heaton, it came
:56:49. > :57:02.off the post. It had the keeper beaten.
:57:03. > :57:12.Mirrallas forced wide. Even he can't shoot from there. Barkley might from
:57:13. > :57:28.here. It is deflected twice and it's in. Everton have their lead back.
:57:29. > :57:33.Barkley is their bright boy. If it is on target, it is his goal. It
:57:34. > :57:40.comes off Mee last. That is why it looped over Heaton. Off Keane and
:57:41. > :57:44.then off Mee and then past Heaton. And after the goal, Barkley has
:57:45. > :57:50.received a yellow card for standing just next fot the yellow gate and
:57:51. > :57:55.practically going into the crowd. I think that is all he is going to
:57:56. > :57:59.get. Because when you look at it again, it comes off Keane and
:58:00. > :58:02.reflects off Mee. I think for the moment it has gone down as a Ben Mee
:58:03. > :58:37.own goal. Lukaku finishes as Lukaku does! He
:58:38. > :58:43.had the power and he had the poise. And he might just have wrapped this
:58:44. > :58:52.up for Everton. Burnley perhaps too relaxed at the Everton throw. Lukaku
:58:53. > :58:58.took it, turned and he was strong for Keane and he fair walloped it
:58:59. > :59:03.into the net. I think Burnley was the better team in the beginning,
:59:04. > :59:08.the better chances, but OK, after 30 minutes we took the domination in
:59:09. > :59:13.the game and we create chances and we were by far the better team in
:59:14. > :59:18.the second half. I was pleased with the mentality of players and these
:59:19. > :59:22.are in top form, they're a good side and we enhanced the game with our
:59:23. > :59:27.game plan. I'm pleased with the players. We do need a margin of luck
:59:28. > :59:36.now and again. I don't like talking about that. But two bobbly goals.
:59:37. > :59:42.Have you been impressed with how he handled this week. No, nothing fazes
:59:43. > :59:50.him. These things can happen. It is not ideal. Tonight thankfully I will
:59:51. > :59:58.give him the goal. He was focussed on the football side and not about
:59:59. > :00:05.all the stuff that came out after last Sunday. Tough week for Ross
:00:06. > :00:10.Barkley. He has taken three hit, one in a bar, one by a newspaper and now
:00:11. > :00:14.they have take an goal off him. He responded in the right way. Yes,
:00:15. > :00:18.that is the way you have to respond. He played very well. More passes in
:00:19. > :00:21.the opposition half than anyone, more sprints and played a huge part
:00:22. > :00:32.in the the victory. That's what he's been told to do,
:00:33. > :00:37.saves his team a goal there. It's superb. It goes in the back of the
:00:38. > :00:41.net, he's bright, alert, he did it. We'll see later in the game as well.
:00:42. > :00:46.Doing his bit defensively, again for the team. Lovely little touch there,
:00:47. > :00:51.he sets Mirallas away, who actually should do better. Straight at the
:00:52. > :00:57.goalkeeper. But you are right, it's going to take it off him, they will
:00:58. > :01:01.have put it down as a Ben Mee own goal. It should be his goal. He
:01:02. > :01:05.deserves it, after the week he's had. Same thing again. Knows what
:01:06. > :01:11.he's meant to do, knows his position from defending corners. Saves
:01:12. > :01:15.another goal for his team and he gets taken off to a standing
:01:16. > :01:19.ovation. It was an excellent performance from him. Not signed a
:01:20. > :01:24.new contract yet. What do you think, its progress in his career? I like
:01:25. > :01:27.him, we are in danger of overanalysing our young English
:01:28. > :01:32.players, we want so much from them, but he's becoming a man, not a boy
:01:33. > :01:39.at this stage and Everton moving on, I think for me he needs a consistent
:01:40. > :01:42.season. He needs to play at the level he played today, consistently.
:01:43. > :01:45.He's got talent but I'd like to see him... There was a time earlier in
:01:46. > :01:49.the season when Ronald Koeman left him out and criticised him, he was
:01:50. > :01:51.also responding in the right way then, his performances have
:01:52. > :01:56.certainly improved since then and he's having a much better season
:01:57. > :01:59.this year. Eight wins on the bounce at home for Everton. They've scored
:02:00. > :02:03.more goals this season than they have done at Goodison in 26 years.
:02:04. > :02:09.Lukaku is breaking records. It's looking good, isn't it, Frank? Yes,
:02:10. > :02:14.you have to give Ronald Koeman loads of credit. They have an outstanding
:02:15. > :02:18.striker, playing for Everton. A lot of credit to them. They are fifth in
:02:19. > :02:20.the league, that's incredible. Burnley another of those teams that
:02:21. > :02:26.just can't buy a win away from home. Only Spurs have picked up more
:02:27. > :02:28.points than Crystal Palace and Leicester in recent weeks,
:02:29. > :02:31.with both sides winning Palace's most recent victory,
:02:32. > :02:34.a 3-0 thrashing of Arsenal on Monday that moved them six points clear
:02:35. > :02:57.of the bottom three. A bit of space... Gets that wide
:02:58. > :03:03.towards Zaha. Good fit Cabaye. What a finish for Yohan Cabaye. Townsend
:03:04. > :03:09.in the area, will he get there? He bundles it in and the referees
:03:10. > :03:15.points to this penalty spot. Crystal Palace three, Arsenal nil.
:03:16. > :03:18.GARY LINEKER: Your commentator at Selhurst Park,
:03:19. > :03:22.Mark Scott. COMMENTATOR:
:03:23. > :03:24.Sam Allardyce says Palace's performance against Arsenal was
:03:25. > :03:29.almost perfection but he's warned this may be a tougher game for them.
:03:30. > :03:31.Allardyce sticks with the same side that beat the Gunners with Jeffrey
:03:32. > :03:37.Schlupp continuing at their back and Van Aanholt beginning on the bench.
:03:38. > :03:42.Somewhat surprisingly, there are only two changes to the Leicester
:03:43. > :03:46.line-up in Madrid lost a bandit King and Leonardo Ulloa replacing Danny
:03:47. > :03:49.Drinkwater and Okazaki, who are named amongst the substitutes.
:03:50. > :03:50.There's no Islam Slimani in the squad, after he picked up an injury
:03:51. > :04:06.in training. Drops for Albrighton. Showed a bit
:04:07. > :04:16.too much of it toward. Zaha across there as well, off award last. --
:04:17. > :04:22.off Ward last. It's guided in, Robert Huth puts Leicester in front.
:04:23. > :04:29.Easy as you like for the Foxes there. Christian Fuchs' long throw,
:04:30. > :04:34.no one was really picking up Robert Huth, and he steered it past
:04:35. > :04:39.Hennessey, who didn't move a muscle. Crystal Palace nil, Leicester one.
:04:40. > :04:42.Sam Allardyce brought Craig Shakespeare as a first-team coach
:04:43. > :04:46.during his brief spell as England manager last year and Shakespeare
:04:47. > :04:51.says having seen Allardyce at work is not at all surprised by
:04:52. > :04:52.impressive upturn Palace have had recently. Andros Townsend picking up
:04:53. > :05:05.the running. Zaha, trying to find Townsend, only
:05:06. > :05:10.found Christian Fuchs. Good control, a good save, from Kasper Schmeichel.
:05:11. > :05:18.Trying to get onto the rebound, Leicester scramble it clear.
:05:19. > :05:21.Picking out Benteke, whose control was lovely. Schmeichel got his angle
:05:22. > :05:40.is just right. Townsend's delivery is not bad. Zaha
:05:41. > :05:44.makes a mess of the opportunity. As Manuel -- Huth managed to prevent
:05:45. > :05:47.Townsend's was getting to Christian Benteke, but it did drop to Zaha.
:05:48. > :06:04.Who made a mess of the chance. Zaha now... Well, Mark Albrighton
:06:05. > :06:10.was on the end of some rough justice in the week, when his foul on
:06:11. > :06:14.Antoine Griezmann outside the area was given as a penalty. Palace
:06:15. > :06:20.wanted one here. He says it was off the chest. Townsend's corner,
:06:21. > :06:25.Benteke rising. Zaha up against Mahrez. Mahrez has come out on top.
:06:26. > :06:27.It's set Jamie Vardy away here. It's Vardy, comes inside well and scores
:06:28. > :06:42.brilliantly. Jamie Vardy continues his hot streak
:06:43. > :06:46.under Craig Shakespeare, six goals in seven Premier League games, since
:06:47. > :06:54.he took over as manager. Credit here to Riyad Mahrez for the vision to
:06:55. > :07:00.set Vardy away. Got inside his former team-mate, Schlupp. And then
:07:01. > :07:04.bent it beyond Hennessey, who got a hand to it but couldn't keep it out.
:07:05. > :07:10.A really good Leicester goal on the counter. Crystal Palace nil,
:07:11. > :07:11.Leicester City two, the Foxes firmly on course for only their second away
:07:12. > :07:25.league win of the season. Schlupp just got away from him, got
:07:26. > :07:31.away from Andy G. Jeffrey Schlupp. Room here for Cabaye.
:07:32. > :07:39.This is Zaha, Palace looking for an immediate response and it will break
:07:40. > :07:43.here for Jeffrey Schlupp. Schlupp deflected and in from Cabaye and
:07:44. > :07:51.Palace have their immediate response! Cabaye scores for the
:07:52. > :07:55.second game running. Poor defending from Leicester, to allow the ball to
:07:56. > :08:02.break to Jeffrey Schlupp. A bit of luck, deflected off Simpson and it
:08:03. > :08:05.fell perfectly for Cabaye, who swept it beyond Schmeichel. Game on.
:08:06. > :08:14.Crystal Palace one, Leicester City two.
:08:15. > :08:38.Townsend's delivery isn't bad. In, Christian Benteke. Benteke with his
:08:39. > :08:46.14th goal of the season for Palace. After Townsend picked him out here.
:08:47. > :08:52.Leicester sells they were on the end of a rough call from the referee in
:08:53. > :08:55.mid-week. They were protesting about a challenge on Benteke from
:08:56. > :08:59.Benalouane. You can see where Leicester are coming from. Mike Dean
:09:00. > :09:04.had a pretty good view of it as well.
:09:05. > :09:18.Palace have the momentum now. Andros Townsend, looking for Benteke, but
:09:19. > :09:23.it's Benalouane. Benteke running out Benalouane. Schmeichel's says,
:09:24. > :09:32.didn't quite fall for Zaha. It's Puncheon. Leicester on the ropes.
:09:33. > :09:38.Van Aanholt almost four Benteke. Benteke surging through, his strike
:09:39. > :09:52.blocked by Sir Michael. Leicester on the ropes a little right now.
:09:53. > :10:04.Jamie Vardy. Dangerous ball, almost two Leonardo Ulloa. Here's
:10:05. > :10:09.Drinkwater. A chance to win it for Danny Drinkwater. Great work from
:10:10. > :10:15.Vardy, really good ball in. A poor clearance from Van Aanholt.
:10:16. > :10:20.Drinkwater fists it's wide. Today's point feels like a win, 2-0 down,
:10:21. > :10:25.coming back to 2-2, could have easily made it 3-2, tried to force a
:10:26. > :10:28.winner in the end. It's a tremendous fightback by the players and
:10:29. > :10:31.something that I think wouldn't have happened when I first arrived.
:10:32. > :10:35.Looking at your team selection, many people thought you would ring the
:10:36. > :10:40.changes but only two from the game in midweek. You said you couldn't
:10:41. > :10:44.afford to rest anyone and you need points. We need to be like that
:10:45. > :10:47.until the end of the season in terms of being competitive. Of course
:10:48. > :10:51.squad rotation comes into it. We've rested a few today but we need the
:10:52. > :10:55.points. A second goal, plenty of complaints from your players. What
:10:56. > :11:01.was your view on it? I seen the review, I've seen them given. Ie He
:11:02. > :11:05.is riding on Benalouane's back but I seen them given and not given so I
:11:06. > :11:12.will leave it to the experts. I thought it was using a stepladder.
:11:13. > :11:15.Leo was done for the exact same challenges in the first half so you
:11:16. > :11:20.would think it would be a free kick, but obviously not. We came through
:11:21. > :11:24.the game and we had stuff go, the first one, and the second one, is
:11:25. > :11:30.special, Vardy, we knew that, but we had a good reaction and we will take
:11:31. > :11:33.the point and move on. We are slowly catching up with the boys above is,
:11:34. > :11:41.so actually is my team looking up now instead of down? I hope they
:11:42. > :11:45.are. I love that from Big Sam, he said that wouldn't have happened,
:11:46. > :11:49.that comeback before I got here. He is right though. It was an excellent
:11:50. > :11:53.comeback by Palace and they are different proposition. He's given
:11:54. > :11:58.them fight, hope and spirit and that was shown there today, 2-0 down.
:11:59. > :12:03.Showed great character and coming back. Cabaye eventually gets the
:12:04. > :12:07.ball. He starts, the goal, I should say, he starts to move on the edge
:12:08. > :12:10.of the box and comes back to the other side to Schlupp and there's
:12:11. > :12:16.Cabaye on the edge of the box there. It's a lovely finish. Inside the
:12:17. > :12:21.penalty box. This is what they are moaning about. What do you think? I
:12:22. > :12:25.don't think it's a foul. I think it's an excellent ball. Benteke gets
:12:26. > :12:28.up earlier than the defenders of the defender can't jump but I don't
:12:29. > :12:31.think it's a foul at all. I think its good centre forward play. That's
:12:32. > :12:35.what Palace have to constantly do, get balls like in for that. That's
:12:36. > :12:48.what he thrives on but I don't get the foul at all. Do you? No, no
:12:49. > :12:50.foul, that's his game. As for Leicester, they have bigger fish to
:12:51. > :12:55.fry midweek, Atletico Madrid will stop bonkers, but they are still it.
:12:56. > :12:59.Shakespeare had a good team today, a nice momentum, picking up good
:13:00. > :13:04.results in the league. Why not? The atmosphere they will get behind in
:13:05. > :13:09.the week is huge, so why not? I fear the worst but then I always do!
:13:10. > :13:12.It's seven games without a goal for Sunderland, who began the day
:13:13. > :13:16.Opponents West Ham arrived at the Stadium of Light having ended
:13:17. > :13:18.a run of five straight defeats against Swansea last week.
:13:19. > :13:28.Jermain Defoe was the last to score more than three months ago here.
:13:29. > :13:33.He's registered more than half his side's goals this season. Four
:13:34. > :13:39.changes for the host. Manquillo, Boucher, Gibson and Khazri are in.
:13:40. > :13:42.Andy Carroll's presence is sure to cause a stir, albeit he's only
:13:43. > :13:46.scored once in nine appearances against them. He replaces top scorer
:13:47. > :13:51.Michail Antonio, now ruled out for the rest of the season. Fernandes
:13:52. > :13:56.replaces the suspended Mark Noble on the day of his 21st birthday.
:13:57. > :14:13.Aimed towards Carroll, who does get to it and he meets it and the
:14:14. > :14:16.opening goal is scored by Ayew and West Ham United, who have already
:14:17. > :14:24.had aside with the free kick, now take the lead within five minutes.
:14:25. > :14:28.It was mis-hit in all honestly from Carroll, I think it was going for
:14:29. > :14:34.the volley directly, but it teed up Ayew and he stroked it into the net.
:14:35. > :14:39.He thanks a player who has scored four goals in his last eight
:14:40. > :14:42.appearances. Now their body language is actually pretty good,
:14:43. > :14:46.Sunderland's. They certainly not given up on this one. Here's Khazri,
:14:47. > :14:52.who will keep it in play. Anichebe was into the box, so does Defoe.
:14:53. > :14:56.Khazri goes and wins the corner. He's always been a lively player,
:14:57. > :15:00.Khazri. One sees in the box, he knows it's going to be a penalty, if
:15:01. > :15:05.someone gets it wrong and in the end, it's Byram that stops them. If
:15:06. > :15:15.Sunderland equalised, they will have merited it. A clever corner, it's
:15:16. > :15:19.gone straight in. Khazri! More than 11 and a half hours of waiting and
:15:20. > :15:23.Sunderland finally score in a most unusual of circumstances. Khazri,
:15:24. > :15:28.wetting it in. There's a really strong breeze inside the stadium.
:15:29. > :15:34.Randolph can't get to it. An EJB is just in front of him and Khazri
:15:35. > :15:37.finally brings this awful goal drought to a conclusion and
:15:38. > :15:42.Sunderland are level, and they are fighting. The fans have been
:15:43. > :15:45.supportive. They've enjoyed the effort and determination of their
:15:46. > :15:47.side and now, they now have the sense that this might be a
:15:48. > :16:01.3-pointer. Right across to Carroll and Ayew
:16:02. > :16:08.turns it towards the goal, but off target. So disappointed a Ayew.
:16:09. > :16:12.Sunderland have been the better side since West Ham took the lead. But
:16:13. > :16:23.every time West Ham come forward, they look threatening.
:16:24. > :16:28.West Ham have the early threats at the beginning of the patch and
:16:29. > :16:36.they're going to pose the first threat at the start of second half
:16:37. > :16:41.too it seems. Snodgrass with a dangerous ball and it goes out for a
:16:42. > :16:45.corner. It is actually West Ham's first corner of the match and
:16:46. > :16:54.Snodgrass will hit it in on that strong breeze.
:16:55. > :17:02.Delivery is dangerous and it's gone in. Collins helps it on its way to
:17:03. > :17:07.the far post and West Ham score within a minute of the second half,
:17:08. > :17:12.having opened the scoring within five of the first. They have have
:17:13. > :17:18.known from the first half it is a difficult end to defend corners. And
:17:19. > :17:23.this ball from Snodgrass helped on by the breeze and it just rolls off
:17:24. > :17:31.Collins and into the corner of the goal.
:17:32. > :17:39.Foul by Byram? No says the referee. Oh, it is a foul. In the end he gets
:17:40. > :17:47.the decision. Didn't look as if he had given it. But he has and Byram
:17:48. > :17:57.gets yellow carded as well. Still time for Sunderland if they can
:17:58. > :18:02.muster enequaliser. Khazri and Ndong. Oh dear, oh dear! What a
:18:03. > :18:08.moment. 20 minutes to go. Momentum with the home side. Equaliser goes
:18:09. > :18:27.in now, and the three points maybe beckoning.
:18:28. > :18:33.Jones takes on the defendser. No foul says the referee. Jones is
:18:34. > :18:38.still down. I wonder if it is mild concussion. The way he falls at the
:18:39. > :18:44.end, I wonder if he bangs his head on the turf. Look at the ends. Does
:18:45. > :18:53.he bang his head there? I think he does. It is always a troubling sight
:18:54. > :18:58.to see a player who has been given oxygen being stretchered from the
:18:59. > :19:09.field. Let us hope that Billy Jones is set for a swift recovery.
:19:10. > :19:19.Out comes Randolph. Pokes it away not very far, Borini scores and
:19:20. > :19:26.Sunderland have hope! We are in the 90th minute. There will be plenty of
:19:27. > :19:30.added time after that. And Sunderland have their equaliser.
:19:31. > :19:37.Randolph wondered if he had been fouled. Andre Marriner said he
:19:38. > :19:48.hadn't been. Borini's finish was excel lenlts. -- excellent. And it
:19:49. > :19:52.is 2-2 and there will be ten minutes of added time and listen to the
:19:53. > :20:01.Stadium Of Light with Borini having put them level. They used to coal it
:20:02. > :20:05.the Roker Roar. It is the Stadium Of Light roar and Byram has been booked
:20:06. > :20:11.already and it will be ten-men West Ham. There is more than five minutes
:20:12. > :20:19.left and West Ham will have to repel Sunderland with ten. Byram was
:20:20. > :20:30.booked earlier. Sunderland now have a booster.
:20:31. > :20:36.They have kept on going, their determination and commitment to the
:20:37. > :20:43.cause unquestioned. But there is a feeling of maybe too little too
:20:44. > :20:47.late. It was a fair result. It is a point, we wanted three of them. We
:20:48. > :20:51.were close to get three of them. But again it is a point and itself is
:20:52. > :20:56.good. Do you feel among you as players you can get out of this? It
:20:57. > :21:02.is harder than previous time I think. We are not being at our
:21:03. > :21:07.level, we are not being as a united group probably as previous seasons.
:21:08. > :21:12.And that's what probably been the problem. But positive results like
:21:13. > :21:17.today and performanceles can bring that strength to the group. We keep
:21:18. > :21:22.going. We don't give in. We have to hope somewhere the football Gods
:21:23. > :21:26.will shine on us and there will be things that allow us to pick up
:21:27. > :21:30.points. Another draw is probably not enough for him. Khazri, who has not
:21:31. > :21:36.started since October, at least he made a difference. I think Khazri
:21:37. > :21:41.last year was influential in them staying up. He has come in from
:21:42. > :21:45.being out for a long time. One thing when you're at the bottom and
:21:46. > :21:49.everything peoples like a consolation, is you want energy and
:21:50. > :21:55.somebody putting effort in. He shows energy. He is out wide and he gets
:21:56. > :21:58.the ball and he is direct and tries to make something happen. That has
:21:59. > :22:03.not been happening enough for Sunderland. Doesn't quite happen for
:22:04. > :22:10.him. He gets his goal from a corner. A potential foul on the keeper. He
:22:11. > :22:17.made a difference. Here Anichebe backs him. It is half a foul and it
:22:18. > :22:24.is half is the keeper strong enough? Again he is pressing. The question
:22:25. > :22:31.mark are all the players doing it. As a team, they haven't done it all
:22:32. > :22:36.season properly. He creates something later. That is over the
:22:37. > :22:42.bar. Quite a damning comment from Borini, saying that the team's less
:22:43. > :22:46.united that non-previous seasons. -- than in previous seasons. I think
:22:47. > :22:55.you can see that they have not been united for large parts of season.
:22:56. > :22:59.Thank you both. Before we leave, here is the table.
:23:00. > :23:01.Tottenham's 12th straight win at White Hart Lane closes the gap
:23:02. > :23:05.Everton move into fifth after a record eighth
:23:06. > :23:08.Sunderland ended a run of three defeats, but remain
:23:09. > :23:11.Swansea missed the chance to climb out of the bottom
:23:12. > :23:16.three following a sixth successive away loss.
:23:17. > :23:22.In the Times, Mauricio Pochettino said the pressure is now on Chelsea
:23:23. > :23:32.in the title race. The Star claims Jose Mourinho is planning a ?125
:23:33. > :23:36.million double swoop. Diego Costa will be allowed to leave Chelsea for
:23:37. > :23:39.a lucrative contract in China. Spurs prove once again
:23:40. > :23:44.there's no place like home.
