6:34 pm
teamwork, when harry headed into the third, that was the game. but spurs tired and conceited to late goals, too late to change the fate of the match but enough to shove the spurs manager his challenge. so would he smile because mikejust manager his challenge. so would he smile because mike just about. remember, he is humble. it is not about me, it is about the players and the club. very important, too long without a victory. i will hate if someone says thatjose made an impact, ijust did a little bit to win this match. mourinho needs to win this match. mourinho needs to win over all of his players, but so far, so good. mourinho off to the best possible start at spurs and there's been drama across all the other games in the premier league today. rhia chohan has reaction from that tottenham game, and the rest of the matches for us. rhia.
6:35 pm
well, we started the day with these headlines, jose mourinho‘s reported bid to "fire up dele alli"and we saw jose mourinho‘s reported bid to "fire up dele alli" and we saw the impact that the new spurs boss could potentially have on players like dele, who really stepped up in that number ten role — helping set up the first two goals. and interestingly, he's the same age that frank lampard was when mourinho arrived at chelsea and we saw how he flourished. there's another big match going on right now at the etihad. manchester city hosting chelsea. city go into this one 12 points behind leaders liverpool,
6:36 pm
and a point behind chelsea and it was the visitors who took the lead through n'golo kante. but kevin de bruyne equalised for city, and riyad mahrez has given them the lead. half time at the etihad, 2—1 city. we'll keep you up to date with the score througout the programme. liverpool maintained their eight—point lead at the top of the premier league with a victory over crystal palace, but it wasn't without some var controversy. palace defenderjames tomkins had a goal ruled out in first—half stoppage time afterjordan ayew was adjudged to have fouled deyun lovren. sadio mane scored his tenth goal of the season just after half—time for liverpool. it looked as if wilfried zaha had rescued a point for palace when he equalised, but roberto firminho scored a late winner from a corner to clinch the win. liverpool's victory means they've now gone 30 games unbeaten in the premier league.
6:37 pm
we won it, and that is absolutely ok, you don't have to go so far if you just want that. i liked a lot of the performance, not everything, but some things were not there and we see the more often, the good things at least. after take your chances and we took one of ours and they got there late when that is a cruel, blow that we feel. but nothing to complain from my side and if anything, i want to be positive because i want to feel good about the team in the performance because i think it was out performance because i think it was our best performance the season and maybe would compared to the past as well. the pressure on arsenal manager unai emery increases — his slide slipped to seventh after a draw against southampton. emery‘s side were booed off at the final whistle. danny ings‘ early goal from a ryan bertrand free—kick put

southampton in front. they didn't keep that for long, alexandre lacazette turned in a close—range equaliser. arsenal fell behind for a second time in the second half — but not even lacazette's second goal of the day, which came late in stoppage time, could raise spirits at the emirates. the result leaves the gunners nine points worse off than they were at this stage last term. asa as a team and as a player, we will try to continue our work. we have to find a solution together and i think we have to stay strong. we have to carry on and yet, that is it. we can add marco silva to the list of managers under scrutiny, as everton lost to norwich city. norwich moved off the bottom of the premier league and ended
6:39 pm
a run of seven games without a win at goodison park. the 2—0 defeat sees everton drop to 15th place. marco silva has lost all four of his premier league home games against sides starting the day bottom of the table elsehwere in the premier league today. jamie vardy‘s scoring run continued as leicester got their fifth consecutive premier league win away at brighton — they stay in second for the time being. wolves moved ahead of arsenal into fifth with a 2—1 win over bournmouth. and burnley are just behind wolves now in sixth thanks to a 3—0 win at watford who sink back to the bottom of the table. still to come on sportsday. saracens put their domestic woes behind them, as they turn on the style on a busy day of european rugby. and we'll head to the middle east, where it's fleetwood against rahm
