    Southampton 1-0 Tottenham

    From the resulting corner, the ball drops for Jan Vertonghen inside the six yard box, the Belgium defender is unmarked but leans back and smashes a strike into the stand.

    Waheeeeeey, scream the home fans.

  2. VAR

    WHY ARE THEY CHECKING THAT???

    Alex McCarthy clearly got the ball man.

  3. goal

    GOAL - Newcastle 0-2 Leicesterpublished at 15:39 Greenwich Mean Time 1 January 2020

    James Maddison (39 mins)

    I just applauded thin air. A screamer!

    It's another horrible ball down the line from Florian Lejeune which is cut out but have a look at this for a finish.

    25 yards from goal, left foot - James Maddison rocks back and unleashes a picture-perfect piledriver into the very top corner.

    A brilliant goal. This is a very, very good Leicester City side isn't it?

  4. CLOSE!published at 15:38 Greenwich Mean Time 1 January 2020

    Southampton 1-0 Tottenham

    Better from Harry Kane this time, getting the ball out of his feet and smacking a low drive from 25 yards out which Alex McCarthy spills.

    But the Southampton goalkeeper recovers to nick the ball ahead of Dele Alli at the second attempt.

    I don't know what Lejeune is thinking, he never really looked confident and played an absolutely horrific ball across the box. You are taught not to do that from the under-9s, really horrific defending.

    Darryl Finch: I feel like we’ve seen this story before... too early to stick a few quid on Watford to win the league next year?!

    Southampton 1-0 Tottenham

    Harry Kane is free in the box and tries to volley home on the swivel from Christian Eriksen's pass, but gets it wrong and scuffs straight at Alex McCarthy.

    Flag up again.

    No VAR needs.

  8. goal

    GOAL - Newcastle 0-1 Leicesterpublished at 15:36 Greenwich Mean Time 1 January 2020

    Ayoze Perez (36 mins)

    Had to be!

    So shoddy at the back from Florian Lejeune who tries to spread it out wide but Ayoze Perez reads it and cuts it out. He glides into the area, chops inside Fabian Schar who fouls him - would be a penalty - but Perez stays on his feet just about to stab into the far corner.

    He gives the old 'ears' celebration against his old club.

    It's justice for Watford because Neto dived earlier for Wolves. If you cheat like that you'll get your comeuppance!

    Any signs of Tottenham getting back into the game?

    Nope, lacklustre from Jose Mourinho's side thus far.

    The Saints are doing a number on them.

    We were talking about the levels Gerard Deulofeu can get to for Watford. It's hard to get the ball off him in the penalty area because he is such a threat. This time he's come in off the left and just curled into the corner. A lovely goal

    Deulofeu opened his body up like Thierry Henry used to do, a brilliant finish.

  14. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:33 Greenwich Mean Time 1 January 2020

    Newcastle 0-0 Leicester

    Newcastle just can't deal with James Maddison at the minute, he's a step ahead of them at every turn. Federico Fernandez is booked for tugging him over and then has to concede a corner. From that corner Wilfred Ndidi heads over.

    Shane Lenihan: Talking about Ings and Vardy for Euro 2020 is a bit silly. The Euros are six months away and the player's form could drop off a cliff.

  16. CLOSE!published at 15:32 Greenwich Mean Time 1 January 2020

    Southampton 1-0 Tottenham

    Southampton should double their lead.

    Stuart Armstrong holds the ball up down the right before crossing for Nathan Redmond at the near post, but he does not get enough purchase on the strike and it deflects away off Toby Alderweireld.

  17. goal

    GOAL - Watford 1-0 Wolvespublished at 15:29 Greenwich Mean Time 1 January 2020

    Gerard Deulofeu (30 mins)

    Punished.

    A loose pass from Leandre Dendoncker inside his own half is cut out by Ismaila Sarr.

    The Senegal international lays it off to the left-edge of the box for Gerard Deulofeu, he has plenty to do but coolly rolls a first-time finish past the reach of Rui Patricio into the far corenr.

    A real Thierry Henry finish.

    James Maddison with a lovely pass to start another move, he is pulling the strings and getting plenty of stick as well. It's eventually cleared for a corner.

  19. CLOSE!published at 15:29 Greenwich Mean Time 1 January 2020

    Good save from Rui Patricio, low down to his left following Ismaila Sarr's snapshot from eight yards out.

    Lee: Daniel Levy has got to back Mourinho in the transfer window. Our back four is shocking and we're in danger of going backwards. It's making Pochettino's sacking look totally pointless.

    Scott: Dele has a reputation for diving - and you can see why.
