Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

There are seven games to get stuck into this evening, with Tottenham vs Manchester United the stand-out fixture. Manchester City and Chelsea are also in action as the fight for the top four heats up. Follow the live action below.


Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

If you're wondering whether that goal was the fastest Premier League goal or not, it wasn't even the quickest Spurs have scored!

Everton 1-0 Leicester

25: Theo Walcott opens his account for Everton. The winger was waiting at the back post for Gylfi Sigurdsson's cross to find him. The ball arrives at his feet and it's a simple finish for his first ever goal for his new side.

Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

16: Jesse Lingard feeds the ball to Romelu Lukaku who draws up Hugo Lloris out of his goal. With his back to goal, Lukaku tires to find Anthony Martial but the pass is short and Spurs clear.

Newcastle 1-0 Burnley

Penalty Saved

33: Kennedy is brought down in the box by Phil Bardsley and the referee awards Newcastle the spot kick. Joselu takes the penalty but Nick Pope is equal to his effort.

Manchester City 1-0 West Brom

19: Kevin De Bruyne slides in a superb pass to Fernandinho who stabs the ball in to give City a well deserved lead.

Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

23: Christian Eriksen finds Harry Kane with a curling pass from the right flank. The forward shoots first time but he wasn't really set and David De Gea makes a simple save.

Everton 2-0 Leicester

39: It's two for Theo Walcott. Micheal Keane headers the ball back across goal and Walcott is well placed to fire in a right footed volley.

Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United 

28: Kieran Trippier is in so much space on the right wing and fires in a powerful low cross. Phil Jones is at the front post and his poor positioning leads him to swing at the ball and turn it into his own net. What a disastrous start for Manchester United.

Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

31: Dele Alli gets himself into the box but Antonio Valencia is on hand to slide in and tackle the ball away. The Spurs players and fans scream for a penalty but replays show it was a very well timed effort.
