HALF-TIME - LIVERPOOL 2 STOKE 1:

[10 April 2016 16:50 · Sam Dymond]

17 mins: Tottenham 0 Manchester United 0: A brilliant reaction stop from David de Gea denies Harry Kane's first time meeting of Erik Lamela's cross from the left but before the boot of any player in white can force the rebound in, the assistant referee's flag brings the attack to a conclusion. Better from the title challengers.

22 mins: Tottenham 0 Manchester United 0: The first quarter of the game is marked with some truly awful football. First Daley Blind's corner has more height on it than length, and then when Morgan Schneiderlin kept play alive on the opposite side of the pitch, Anthony Martial put in an equally embarrassing cross from the left. Only some dreadful defending from Tottenham kept them under pressure, and that allowed Marcus Rashford to fluff a shot off target. No wonder Leicester City are top.

28 mins: Tottenham 0 Manchester United 0: Erik Lamela has missed an absolute sitter, and it's one that may well mean Jack Rodwell is not the beneficiary of Blunder of the Weekend. The Argentine was six yards out and unmarked when he met Christian Eriksen's centre to inexplicably head wide of the post. The chance came seconds after a last-ditch challenge from Timothy Fosu-Mensah had denied Harry Kane from mopping up a David De Gea fumble.Erik Lamela somehow heads wide from close range.

SECOND HALF KICK-OFF: An impressive first half is as good as this weekend will get for Sheyi Ojo. The teenage creator of Liverpool's second goal has been replaced at the break, and Divock Origi will take his place in the home side's forward line for the second 45. Can he add to the important away goal he netted at Borussia Dortmund on Thursday?

65 mins: GOAL! LIVERPOOL 4 STOKE 1:

It's all happening for Divock Origi! The Belgian has his tail up after a fabulous few days, and after toying with Phil Bardsley on the left, he cuts inside and swings over a cross for Daniel Sturridge. The Liverpool striker misses it, but so does Stoke goalkeeper Jakob Haugaard and that allows the ball to nestle inside the far post. That's the points in the bag, surely, for Jurgen Klopp's much-changed team.

SECOND HALF KICK-OFF: Tottenham and Manchester United are back underway at White Hart Lane with both sides hoping to improve on a mediocre first half; the draw suits neither side in their respective quests for the title and Champions League football. Ashley Young is on for the visitors in place of young Marcus Rashford, and he will hope to add to a goalthreat that was frankly non-existent in the opening 45.

0 - Man Utd have failed to produce a single first half shot on target in both Premier League games v Spurs this season. Roadblock.

78 mins: Liverpool 4 Stoke 1: From a first change in North London for Manchester United to a final one for Liverpool on Merseyside, and it's a significant one. Lucas is on for Joe Allen after a spell out with injury that has seen him miss the last seven games. Job done for Allen, job done for Liverpool.

[10 April 2016 18:10 · Sam Dymond]

80 mins: Tottenham 3 Manchester United 0: Tottenham are chasing more and more and more. Harry Kane, Danny Rose and Erik Lamela have all tried their lack since the last strike. For all the laughing done at the introduction of Ashley Young as a lone striker, it's the switch of Matteo Darmian for Timothy Fosu-Mensah that has undone United; the youngster was holding the visiting defence together brilliantly.

[10 April 2016 18:12 · Sam Dymond]

82 mins: Tottenham 3 Manchester United 0: FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! Kyle Walker and Memphis Depay tussle on the touchline, and then take fierce exception to each other. After attempting to rip the shirts off each other's back in some kind of homoerotic horseplay, both are shown yellow cards by Mike Dean.
