PREMIER LEAGUE:MANCHESTER CITY VS WEST HAM
It has got to be absolutely maddening if you are a Manchester United fan to see City play a basically crappy game and still come out on tops in the end.

PREMIER LEAGUE:WEST HAM VS TOTTENHAM
Jessie Lingard struck a 47th minute winner, left footed, to lead the hammers to victory over Spurs.
