    Swansea City

    Swansea goal scorer Tom Carroll speaking to Sky Sports: "It is a massive result. As a team we know we haven't been good enough but we were back at it today. The fans were brilliant from the start and put a performance together to get the win.

    "It was nice to chip in, the goal was a great feeling. We needed a bit of luck. To see the penalty go over the bar, it was a bit of a buzz.

    "It was like a cup final today and now we have another four."

    Fernando Llorente, who scored Swansea's first goal: "Today was very important that we won. The team have played a very good match. We needed this. Now we have more confidence and have to continue in this way.

    "We have to play like today. The last four months have been very difficult but our mind is strong. We have to continue in this way."

  2. Relegation time...published at 16:59 British Summer Time 22 April 2017

    West Ham 0-0 Everton

    Everton defender Ashley Williams is asked which team has benefited more from a draw.

    "Neither of us," he replies.  "It wasn't a great game. We haven't played to a level that we have this season. But as a defender it's a clean sheet so I'm happy."

    A point is enough to take the Toffees above Arsenal and up to sixth place in the league.

    Hull 2-0 Watford

    A massive win for Hull.

    They looked up against it after Oumar Niasse was dismissed in the first half, but two goals in a 10-minute spell in the second half wrapped up the points for Marco Silva's side.

    Bournemouth 4-0 Middlesbrough

    That's it.

    Bournemouth on top from start to finish after Joshua King's early goal.

    All too easy for the Cherries, though Middlesbrough may point fingers at Gaston Ramirez after he picked up two ridiculous bookings early on.

    They have some serious work on to save their season.

    Swansea 2-0 Stoke

    Swansea are on the brink of a very important three points. They're trying to run the clock down...

  9. 'Hull deserve their lead'published at 16:48 British Summer Time 22 April 2017

    Hull City 2-0 Watford

    Ex-Liverpool and Wales striker on Final Score

    This afternoon has been a rollercoaster ride! Hull City, the spirit and determination that team has shown to get a result is superb. Hull deserve their lead, fair and square. 

    When I sold Sam Clucas to Hull and got a million pounds for Chesterfield, I told him he was never allowed to score against Swansea. His goal today might have sent the Swans down!

    Bournemouth 4-0 Middlesbrough

    Well, aside from sending Middlesbrough further towards the Championship door, this win for Bournemouth all but ends any survival doubts they may have had.

    In truth, it could have been six or seven.

    Substitute Lys Mousset is the latest to go close as he reacts first to a bouncing ball in the box, but the forward sends an effort well clear of the crossbar.

    The Cherries will have to make do with four.

    West Ham 0-0 Everton

    A West Ham corner comes swinging in and Jose Fonte tries to header down, but it's safe in the hands of Everton keeper Maarten Stekelenburg. 

    One-way traffic at the moment.

    Swansea have dominated this game, really. Stoke have changed their shape to a diamond with Crouch leading the line, but it's not made an iota of difference. If either side look more likely to score it's the Swans.

    West Ham 0-0 Everton

    West Ham break and there's more showboating from Manuel Lanzini, who attempts an overhead kick from inside the box, but his effort goes awry. 

    The hosts are pushing for a winner with two minutes of normal time to go.

    Hull 2-0 Watford

    It's a sea of orange and black inside the Hull half.

    Over to you Watford... but the visitors seem content to play keep ball.

    Tigers boss Marco Silva will be more than happy with that.

    West Ham 0-0 Everton

    Finally, *finally*, Everton get a decent ball in to Romelu Lukaku.

    It comes looping in from the right-hand side from substitute Dominic Calvert-Lewis, but he can't quite get the angle right and it evades the Toffees' top scorer, who is waiting in the box. 

  16. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:42 British Summer Time 22 April 2017

    Bournemouth 4-0 Middlesbrough

    There's another change at the Vitality.

    Joshua King had pretty much done his bit for Bournemouth inside two minutes when he broke the deadlock for the hosts.

    The forward gets a brief rest. Lys Mousset comes on.

    Play has now resumed at Vale Park....

  18. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:40 British Summer Time 22 April 2017

    Bournemouth 4-0 Middlesbrough

    Middlesbrough need a hero.

    They've called on Rudy Gestede. The big, powerful forward replaces Alvaro Negredo.

    Swansea 2-0 Stoke

    After five minutes of drama with missed penalties and goals, it's calmed down a bit at the Liberty Stadium.

    Stoke's Marko Arnautovic, he of shockingly bad spot-kick fame, has the ball at his feet in the box but he's flagged offside. 

    In frustration, he kicks the ball into the crowd.

    Hull 2-0 Watford

    It's shut up shop time for Hull. They're looking to see this one out.

    That second-half double looks to have done the trick as they enter the final 10 minutes at the KCOM Stadium.

    It could be another massive, massive three points for the Tigers.
