Chelsea's lead could be four points on Sunday
Johnson scores Liverpool winner v Stoke
Van Persie scores as Man Utd beat Hull
QPR beat Leicester 3-2 in thrilling match
Liverpool defender Glen Johnson on his winning goal: "To be fair, I thought it [Rickie Lambert's header] would hit the crossbar and I set off early. We fought hard from the beginning. We haven't had that many great results and it's nice to work hard and win. We deserved today. Now we need to push on and build some momentum."
Alistair Lowe:, external Much maligned, massively criticised (rightly so at times) but that was brave by Glen Johnson and potentially a huge goal for Liverpool.
Sanj:, external Just seen Glen Johnson's goal. Fair play. Most would not have even tried to get their head on that.
Shuvam Sinha:, external If Manchester United hadn't thrown away points against teams like Leicester, Burnley and Sunderland, they'd be serious title contenders.
Stoke City had more shots on target and enjoyed more possession than their opponents at Anfield. But Liverpool have the three points that ends their three-match losing Premier League run.
Manchester United goalscorer Robin van Persie, who scored his first Premier League goal in four games: "I was glad to score - I needed that goal to be honest.
"We played really well, you could see that in way we passed the ball. Every week it gets quicker and better. Today it could have been 4-0 or 5-0."
Manchester United 3-0 Hull City
Queens Park Rangers 3-2 Leicester City

The corner comes to nothing. The Kop is urging the referee to blow his whistle. One minute of stoppage time remaining.
Stoke have struck the post and had a shot cleared off the line. Can they find the net in the remaining two minutes of stoppage time? Another corner for the visitors. Keeper Asmir Begovic comes forward.

"Many things for Louis van Gaal to be satisfied with. Robin van Persie with the pick of the goals, he made it 3-0 with an absolutely superb strike. Hull were never in it."
The corner falls to Ryan Shawcross but the Stoke defender can't keep his header on target.

"Once Palace got back into the match through the penalty, their strong defensive work, allied to their speed on the counter, always gave them a chance of getting something in South Wales."
Another corner to Stoke. Four minutes of added time left.
Radamel Falcao needs a goal as badly as Robin van Persie did. The Dutchman netted earlier, but his replacement can't make the Hull net bulge. Tigers defender Michael Dawson blocks on the goal line.
Brilliant save by Liverpool keeper Simon Mignolet to keep out Bojan's fierce drive. This game is far from over.

Final Score
"These Liverpool players are squarely behind Brendan Rodgers. Steven Gerrard has come on, that has helped the momentum, Raheem Sterling has been outstanding, Glen Johnson put his head on the line, and it looks like they have got that elusive goal. By goodness they have worked hard to earn it."
No sign of a winner at the Liberty Stadium. Four minutes of added time to change that. Is there a hero out there?
