Tottenham enjoyed a comfortable afternoon at the office as Lucas Moura netted a hat-trick in a 4-0 win over Huddersfield.

Victor Wanyama opened the scoring before the Brazilian took over scoring three times to move Spurs into third place in the race for the Champions League places.

Here's how it all played out at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium:

77 minutes

Whomps off the crossbar!

Michail Antonio absolutely nails a driven shot from beneath his feet, thumping the ball off the woodwork with David De Gea beaten from 20 yards.

What a save David De Gea!

Grady Diangana stands one up and there are few better than Michail Antonio at arriving like that, heading down into the deck and ready to celebrate as the ball bounces over David De Gea.

But the Spaniard somehow gets his right hand high above his diving body, pawing the ball out...

AND MANCHESTER UNITED ARE AWARDED ANOTHER PENALTY!

Harry Latham-Coyle13 April 2019 19:06

Anthony Martial latches on to a pass in behind and a desperate Ryan Fredericks slides back in reckless fashion.

That one is stonewall.

Paul Pogba again...

GOAL! Manchester United 2-1 West Ham (Paul Pogba penalty, 80 minutes)

​Beats Lukasz Fabianski to his right! Another confident penalty, right in the corner.

That's very cruel on West Ham. Off the crossbar, off the magic right hand of David De Gea, and behind - three moments that could decide the game.

Felipe Anderson wins another corner. Manuel Pellegrini urges his side to calm down, there's still time left for an equaliser, or maybe more...

83 minutes

Felipe Anderson has won flick-ons at will at the near post this afternoon, Andreas Pereira in the way this time. 

Manchester United are still nervous. They need to show some composure to close this one out.

​84 minutes 

Felipe Anderson crosses, Michail Antonio controls, but he and Grady Diangana rather get in each other's way and the chance dissipates. 

Harry Latham-Coyle13 April 2019 19:12

85 minutes 

Another corner off of Diogo Dalot, now on the left with Andreas Pereira on the right.

86 minutes

What courage from Phil Jones. 

The centre-back is pouring, pouring with blood, a nasty gash above the eye inflicted by Declan Rice's arm, completely accidentally.

But he gets back to his feet and makes a crucial clearance before receiving treatment. He's been impressive today.
