The most prolific partnership in Premier League history once again combined to great effect as Tottenham ran out comfortable winners against West Ham on Sunday.
Harry Kane supplied two of the goals and Son Heung-min scored two of them as Spurs beat West Ham 3-1 at their home stadium to move up to fifth in the table.
Leeds United produced a thrilling comeback to claim victory over 10-man Wolves and Arsenal kept alive their top-four ambitions with a win away at Aston Villa.
It was a truncated week of football in England's top flight with several teams involved in FA Cup action.
Diogo Jota's late winner against Nottingham Forest set up a mouthwatering semi-final against Manchester City, who routed Southampton thanks to another fine display from talisman Kevin de Bruyne.
Chelsea avoided the fate of Manchester United and Spurs by eliminating second-tier Middlesbrough.

The BIO
Favourite piece of music: Verdi’s Requiem. It’s awe-inspiring.
Biggest inspiration: My father, as I grew up in a house where music was constantly played on a wind-up gramophone. I had amazing music teachers in primary and secondary school who inspired me to take my music further. They encouraged me to take up music as a profession and I follow in their footsteps, encouraging others to do the same.
Favourite book: Ian McEwan’s Atonement – the ending alone knocked me for six.
Favourite holiday destination: Italy - music and opera is so much part of the life there. I love it.

What is the FNC?
The Federal National Council is one of five federal authorities established by the UAE constitution. It held its first session on December 2, 1972, a year to the day after Federation.
It has 40 members, eight of whom are women. The members represent the UAE population through each of the emirates. Abu Dhabi and Dubai have eight members each, Sharjah and Ras al Khaimah six, and Ajman, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain have four.
They bring Emirati issues to the council for debate and put those concerns to ministers summoned for questioning.
The FNC’s main functions include passing, amending or rejecting federal draft laws, discussing international treaties and agreements, and offering recommendations on general subjects raised during sessions.
Federal draft laws must first pass through the FNC for recommendations when members can amend the laws to suit the needs of citizens. The draft laws are then forwarded to the Cabinet for consideration and approval.
Since 2006, half of the members have been elected by UAE citizens to serve four-year terms and the other half are appointed by the Ruler’s Courts of the seven emirates.
In the 2015 elections, 78 of the 252 candidates were women. Women also represented 48 per cent of all voters and 67 per cent of the voters were under the age of 40.
