"Somehow my instincts say Hull against Man United is better than Newcastle against West Ham. This group of Newcastle players have not coped very well in that pressure cooker atmosphere at St James' Park."

Leicester are staying up
Stuart Pearce
Former England left-back on Final Score
"Their spirit was good and I don't remember too many games where they were annihilated even though they lost. They were very unfortunate against Chelsea, they played extremely well and over the last 12 games they were in championship form. I'd written them off, so credit to Nigel and the players."
Leicester's Liam Moore: Absolute incredible survival. Everybody part of Leicester should be proud of keeping the faith, when most wrote us off #StayingUp
Leicester manager Nigel Pearson, speaking to BBC Sport: "It is a little more satisfying to get over the line with your own result. It's been a good old run for us.
"I think the key thing for us even in our darkest moments, and there have been a few, the players have continued to support each each other and believe in their own ability. That's difficult when people are questioning your integrity.
"We've developed as the season has gone on. This run has been extraordinary, but we've needed to do it, because a number of sides have picked up form. We've stuck at our job."
He added on Sky Sports: "There are always going to be doubts about managers. I may have intensified one or two storms, but I work the way I work, and you can either like me or lump me."
'We are nearly there'

Sunderland head coach Dick Advocaat, speaking to BBC Sport: "It was a very exciting match for both teams, with a lot of nerves, but both teams work so hard. We had more opportunities, but I think 0-0 is a good result.
"Leicester are a very difficult team to beat. They've lost one game in eight, we'd lost one in six. We were organised, but we needed more, and we got it when Adam Johnson came on. We hope to use him in our last two games and get more chances.
"We play Arsenal next, and they are an excellent team. We have to make it as difficult as possible for Arsenal and score a goal. Swansea did it. If you are organised, you will always get chances.
"The players gave everything. I cannot ask for more from them. I can live with that, but they are disappointed. We are almost there, but not quite."
Newcastle doomed?
Garth Crooks
BBC Sport on Final Score
"I don't think Newcastle will survive, St James' will be a cauldron next week, and they face a manager who can't wait to send them down."

QPR caretaker coach Chris Ramsey: "The fans have been absolutely fantastic all season. It's important we got those two goals. It's gets us back to thinking good things in the summer.
"There was plenty of effort in the first half, but lacked that bit of quality. Leroy Fer has got that in his locker - he brings a little bit of extra flavour to our team.
"I think fans can see we will try our best and that we will try to put the club on an even footing. It's not up to me who stays and who doesn't stay."

Newcastle coach John Carver: "It was a mad 10 minutes in the second half and that was hugely disappointing. I thought in first half we were in control. They weren't a threat, we were organised.
"We knew the result we tried to get today and had to get. We had to go for the win.
"Having lost, this is the best scenario with Hull losing. There's one game left and it's a do or die situation.
"We have to manage the pressure this week, focus and keep out of media spotlight. We've talked about some games in the last three, four weeks being the biggest and next week against West Ham is one of them."

West Ham 1-2 Everton
Sam Allardyce must be sick of the sight of Romelu Lukaku. The Belgian has scored against West Ham every time he has played against them for Everton. Allardyce called him a "jinx" in the post-match press conference.
For the Hammers they are in pole position to qualify for the Europa League via fair play after Everton's four yellows.
For Everton they are now in the top half of the table, swapping places with the Hammers but their poor discipline today may cost them a place in Europe.

'Spurs want to be in Europe'
Tottenham 2-0 Hull City
Mauricio Pochettino tells BBC Sport: "The first half was not easy because Hull are playing to survive. We're still in the fight to finish fifth.

I want to play in Europe next season - we need to win our one more game to be sure of getting in the Europa League and that is very important."

"Players are paid extremely well-paid to keep themselves fit, so if you are going to fall from grace can you do it in the close season please?"
Hull close to the brink
Stuart Pearce
Former England left-back on Final Score
"The one thing you get from Brucey is honesty, he is genuine, and he knows he has a genuine bunch around him like Myler and Quinn, who got him up from the Championship. They'll concentrate and treat this as a one-off game."

Tottenham 2-0 Hull City
Hull midfielder Jake Livermore was this week suspended by the Football Association and his club following a positive test for cocaine. Manager Steve Bruce had this to say after being asked about the matter: "It has been unquestionably my hardest 24/36 hours in management. It is hard to put your head round things.
"As always you have to handle it and not let it affect people. We are hugely disappointed but we have to move on, dust ourselves down and prepare as well as we can in a tough week."

"In terms of the way we played, no disrespect to Burnley but if we played like that against them our chances wouldn't be in the hands of others. We have to believe we can beat Manchester United next week.
"Six or seven of the players got me into the league a few years ago. They have big hearts. We've missed some of those big players during this season. We have a chance. Is there one final twist? Can we upset the apple cart. Lets hope we can do it."

There is a lot of loving for Nigel Pearson and his teams' super form as the season ends but what about Dick Advocaat.
Not only does he wear a designer coat and scarf on the touchline, he hasn't half pulled off a blinder since taking charge.
In the 7 games under Advocaat, Sunderland have picked up 11 points, as many as in the 14 previous Premier League games combined.
The Black Cats have two games - Arsenal and Chelsea - and need one point to stay up.

Not too sure what to make of this Queens Park Rangers lap of honour at the end of their home season. Bizarrely, for a club heading down into the Championship, there are a lot of smiles on show in the stands.

"The hair is a mid-life crisis I think.

Nigel Pearson is typically Jekyll and Hyde at Sunderland. He's on the pitch with his players, simply clapping fans one moment like a man in control before flipping into a raging bull as he embraces his players seconds later. He just high-fived a player so hard it could be heard in India.
FULL-TIME
QPR 2-1 Newcastle
Some fans rush onto the pitch at Loftus Road. They have nothing to celebrate as they are already down but at least their last home game of the season ends in a win. Questions aplenty for Newcastle United.
If they draw next week and Hull City win, it won't be good enough.
CLOSE!
QPR 2-1 Newcastle
Newcastle free-kick, a good area, 25 yards out and central. Papiss Cisse hits it, rubbish. Catching practice for Alex McCarthy.

West Ham 1-2 Everton
Romelu Lukaku's late diving header gives Everton just their fifth away win of the season. It ends a run of consecutive defeats, in which they conceded five goals. West Ham say farewell to Upton Park this season with a defeat.

Leicester City's players are embracing, I'm talking big group hugs. As long as Hull don't turn their game with Tottenham around the Foxes are safe. And they are, it's all over at White Hart Lane. Leicester will be in the Premier League next season.
FULL-TIME
Burnley 0-0 Stoke
Burnley's home Premier League campaign ends with a drab goalless draw. The Turf Moor fans rise to applaud their team. They have certainly not been found lacking in terms of effort this campaign. Stoke reach the 51-point mark - their highest ever Premier League total.
FULL-TIME
Tottenham 2-0 Hull City
Tottenham end the season with what, in truth, was a fairly comfortable win. That it was so comfortable is a damning indictment of Hull and their hopes of remaining in this division. The Tigers huffed and puffed by came nowhere near a roar. Only Newcastle's equal ineptitude is keeping this relegation battle alive.
Post update
Sunderland 0-0 Leicester City
We go into injury time at the Stadium of Light. I'll cartwheel through the office if we have a winner... hang on... I've spoken too soon, Andrej Kramaric HAS AN OPEN NET as Costel Pantilimon again races from his goal, the angle isn't easy... and it's over. Heart in mouth time for home fans.
GOAL
West Ham 1-2 Everton - Romelu Lukaku
Getty ImagesCopyright: Getty Images
Everton have nicked this game at the death. Romelu Lukaku shows the most desire in the box to muscle his way to a cross from the right and dive in to head his side towards three points.
Newcastle are pushing, here they come, Ayoze Perez on a weaving run, will he ever pass? Yes, to Sammy Ameobi who crosses for Papiss Cisse... deflected wide in the six-yard box by Clint Hill. What a chance.

Sam Williams: As a Villa fan I would have taken a 15-0 loss today as long as we stay in the division and can rebuild for next season.
Dennis Edwards: Despite their humiliating defeat today, it looks like the 38 points will be enough to secure Villa's Premiership status.
SUBSTITUTION
Tottenham 2-0 Hull City
Another hopeless ball is swung straight into Hugo Lloris' hands by Hull. There are just a few more minutes to play of normal time, with three minutes added. Hull need a miracle.
Tottenham eat some of that time up by withdrawing Harry Kane to be replaced by Roberto Soldado. Kane gets a huge standing ovation from the home crowd for his efforts this season. The first 30-goal Spurs striker since Gary Lineker. Take a bow son.
Lee Cattermole is a lucky boy. Already on a booking he commits a foul as Leicester scramble for possession with Costel Pantilimon way out of his goal. The giant keeper had raced out to clear. We are heading for stalemate.
CLOSE!

Esteban Cambiasso stands over free-kick from the angle of the area, dangerous position. Here he comes... oh dear. Has the ball been replaced with one of those plastic ones available at petrol stations back in the 1990s? It's gone high into the stand and seemed to keep gaining elevation at rapid rate.
By the way, a goal for either side makes them safe. Stick or twist?

Post update
Tottenham 2-0 Hull City
Hull are giving it a go. But you feel it is too little, too late. Stephen Quinn shoots low from the edge of the box but Hugo Lloris saves. If this stays how it is - and you sense it will - Hull will have to win their last game (at home against Manchester United) and hope Sunderland have already lost their game in hand and lose again on the final day or Newcastle fail to win. Hull's saving grace could be a superior goal difference.
GERRARD STARTS
Liverpool v Crystal Palace
Steven Gerrard is in the Liverpool team to face Crystal Palace this afternoon. It's his final game at Anfield. It's barely been in the press this week so if you didn't know, don't worry.
Have Sunderland and Leicester City realised a point here is now a good point as others struggle?

Post update
Tottenham 2-0 Hull City
Answers on a postcard as to how Hull have not scored here. Dame N'Doye and Ahmed Elmohamady have a couple of bites at the cherry each from close range - all of which are either scuffed or blocked by a Tottenham defender - before the former acrobatically shoots wide of the far post. Steve Bruce is utterly crestfallen.
Newcastle have brought Rolando Aarons and Papiss Cisse on for Ryan Taylor and Emmanuel Rivière respectively. They need something and Aarons has an early effort blocked in the box.
Ed Gutteridge: Wow, this Newcastle team really fancy a crack at the Championship, huh?
PENALTY APPEAL
QPR 2-1 Newcastle
Replays of a pull in the box by Nedum Onuoha show Newcastle have a case for a penalty. The defender wraps an arm around Remy Cabella's shoulder and just pulls him down as a cross comes in.
GOAL
West Ham 1-1 Everton - Leon Osman
Getty ImagesCopyright: Getty Images
West ham's lead doesn't last long as Everton hit back. Romelu Lukaku's cross from the right finds Leon Osman 10 yards out. He has his back to goal but turns sharply and fires in to the net.
Now Newcastle are sweating a bit. Only Hull City's ineptitude will likely save them it seems. Paul Dummett spins on a volley six yards out, over. A good chance.

PICK IT OUT. PICK IT OUT.
Some endeavour from QPR at last in these recent minutes and Matt Phillips slides to doggedly win a ball back which spills into the path of Leroy Fer.
What he does is anything but dogged. It's class, pure shimmering class. Right footed from around 35 yards, it bristles into the top corner, swerving away from Tim Krul as he dived to his right.

SUBSTITUTION
Tottenham 1-0 Hull City
Tottenham's tails are up. Harry Kane is sent running into Hull's half but he takes on the shot early and drags his shot past the far post.
That is the cue for a change as Mousa Dembele replaces Christian Eriksen.
John Carver stands hands on hips in the technical area, his side have done what they usually do, concede away from home. That's 16 in five away games for the Toon.
Simple stuff too. Charlie Austin produced a lovely left-foot cross moments ago, this time he switches and clips in from the right as Matt Phillips lurks at the back post. A good leap above his man, Tim Krul cannot cover across goal quickly enough and it's in at the near post.
CLOSE!
QPR 0-1 Newcastle
A long punt, Charlie Austin chases, Paul Dummett and Fabricio Coloccini should deal with this, bounce... bounce. Austin has the muscle, he fashion shooting space but flashes wide from 10 yards. The angle was against him.

How significant a goal could this be? Just after Nikica Jelavic is flagged offside after getting into a good position, Spurs rub salt in the wound as Erik Lamela finds Nacer Chadli, who rounds the keeper and slots into the empty net. Hull are sinking. Three points currently separate them and safety. The Tigers need something big.

CLOSE!
QPR 0-1 Newcastle
Queens Park Rangers must score... GOAL... no. Jonas Gutierrez is the Newcastle saviour on the goal line.

Not much between the teams at Upton Park. West Ham feel they should have had a penalty after Cresswell's cross appeared to hit Coleman's arm. Lukaku curled a great effort high and wide for Everton while Stuart Downing had the home side's best chance.
In the all important Fair Play table it is advantage West Ham as Everton's Barry and Coleman went into Mr Friend's book while Reid was shown a yellow for the Hammers.
Few goals, plenty of tension
So far, it is an afternoon light on Premier League goals but steadily increasing in tension. Of the teams in relegation trouble at the start of play, Newcastle will undoubtedly be the happiest with their afternoon's work so far. They have the goal that lifts them up to 14th and, as it stands, top-flight safety. Hull are the team most in need. If they cannot find a goal at Spurs you suspect that could be curtains.

Think Gordon Banks down at the near post from Pele. Take away several degrees of difficulty and that's this Alex McCarthy save. It was a Daryl Janmaat shot which deflected into the path of Fabricio Coloccini and he stabbed goalwards to find McCarthy down at his near post to tip it around.
Another Newcastle goal and this is over. QPR are like a kid on the last day of term, arms folded, at ease with the world.

Just the one goal so far, but a significant one as it has lifted Newcastle to safety as it stands. Hull remain the team in occupation of the final relegation spot. They could dearly do with a goal at Spurs, but so far they are struggling to make any impact in the final third.
Post update
Sunderland 0-0 Leicester City
Now then, Connor Wickham gets tugged own near the edge of the box and Sunderland could be onto something here. Lots of interest in this one, Sebastian Larsson is orchestrating things like an NFL quarterback...
It's rubbish. The Swede took it short for Wickham to blast into the wall.
Post update
Tottenham 0-0 Hull City
Hull have kept Tottenham relatively quiet, but their problem is how to shift up the gears and open up without becoming more susceptible at the back? Tottenham give warning of the threat they pose as Ryan Mason cuts a ball back for Erik Lamela to slide in and knock wide of the post.

"Jelavic has looked very sharp, and as long as Hull keep creating chances for him, eventually he will score one for you because he's a great finisher."
SUBSTITUTION
QPR 0-1 Newcastle
Rob Green plods off with help from a physio. He gets a standing ovation and who knows, that could be the end of his QPR career right there. Alex McCarthy is coming on in his place.

Nico Lennon: Get in! Riviere's had poor season by anyone's standards but that goal would more than repay transfer fee if it keeps us up
Rob Cobban: Leicester league position graph upside down looks exactly like table mountain. Lions head and all. Wonder if they planned that?
Still we wait for an opener at Sunderland. It's nervy. A corner comes in and defenders pull strikers, strikers pull defenders, it's a grapple-heavy zone. Wes Morgan gets an inch of space and prods at goal but it's hacked away. He couldn't get any purchase on it.
OUCH!
QPR 0-1 Newcastle

One way for Joey Barton to get rid of the "bad eggs" he has highlighted in the Queens Park Rangers dressing room is to wipe them all out. We don't know Rob Green is a bad egg, he looks a good sort, but Barton has just crushed a knee cap into the goalkeepers face.
It's a hide-your-eyes moment. There is blood and Green will do well to play on. Out on the canvas in his six-yard box.

QPR 0-1 Newcastle
Another look at the Newcastle opener and we can see why Queens Park Rangers are preparing for the drop. It's a route one ball over the top from Tim Krul which Emmanuel Riviere pulls down. Such simplicity.

Tottenham 0-0 Hull City

Hull play a risky game allowing Christian Eriksen to dance through their defence and set up Harry Kane on an angle on the left. Kane was burying these earlier in the season. Fortunately for Hull, he drags his shot across goal and wide.
With Sunderland currently being held by Leicester, Hull still have a rival only two points above them. But Newcastle's goal has propelled them to 14th in the table and four points clear of the Tigers.
YELLOW CARD
Sunderland 0-0 Leicester City
A concerned Dick Advocaat looks on as Liam Bridcutt gets treatment. As he gets to his feet the yellow card is brandished his way. It was his heavy tackle that led to injury. Off he hobbles, the magic sponge will right him. No lasting damage.

Post update
Tottenham 0-0 Hull City
The pressure is on Hull now after that Newcastle goal. They have a good chance to match their relegation rivals with an opening goal but Nikica Jelavic is not quick enough to pull away from the Tottenham defence after briefly appearing to have broken through. The home ranks rally, close the Tigers striker down and clear.
GOAL
QPR 0-1 Newcastle - Emmanuel Riviere
PACopyright: PA
Oh yes. the back flips, the somersaults. It's like Lomana LuaLua all over again. Emmanuel Riviere has his first Newcastle goal. It's not pretty, he slips as he hits it, the ball cannons off both legs, but does he care? Not a jot. Away he goes to celebrate.
A long ball did the damage and he slipped in behind the home defence, pulled it down nicely and shot right footed - loosing his footing in the process - and his initial strike deflected of what should have been his standing leg, over Rob Green and in.
Post update
QPR 0-0 Newcastle
Robert Green has to flap a cross clear as the ball spins violently across QPR's six-yard box. Moussa Sissoko whipped in a nice delivery and the away side are growing in confidence here. Rangers have leaked 67 goals this season remember. A big opportunity this for John Carver's side.

'This run has been extraordinary'
Sunderland 0-0 Leicester City
Leicester manager Nigel Pearson, speaking to BBC Sport: "It is a little more satisfying to get over the line with your own result. It's been a good old run for us.
"I think the key thing for us even in our darkest moments, and there have been a few, the players have continued to support each each other and believe in their own ability. That's difficult when people are questioning your integrity.
"We've developed as the season has gone on. This run has been extraordinary, but we've needed to do it, because a number of sides have picked up form. We've stuck at our job."
He added on Sky Sports: "There are always going to be doubts about managers. I may have intensified one or two storms, but I work the way I work, and you can either like me or lump me."
'We are nearly there'
Sunderland 0-0 Leicester City
Sunderland head coach Dick Advocaat, speaking to BBC Sport: "It was a very exciting match for both teams, with a lot of nerves, but both teams work so hard. We had more opportunities, but I think 0-0 is a good result.
"Leicester are a very difficult team to beat. They've lost one game in eight, we'd lost one in six. We were organised, but we needed more, and we got it when Adam Johnson came on. We hope to use him in our last two games and get more chances.
"We play Arsenal next, and they are an excellent team. We have to make it as difficult as possible for Arsenal and score a goal. Swansea did it. If you are organised, you will always get chances.
"The players gave everything. I cannot ask for more from them. I can live with that, but they are disappointed. We are almost there, but not quite."
Newcastle doomed?
Garth Crooks
BBC Sport on Final Score
"I don't think Newcastle will survive, St James' will be a cauldron next week, and they face a manager who can't wait to send them down."
Manager reaction
QPR 2-1 Newcastle
QPR caretaker coach Chris Ramsey: "The fans have been absolutely fantastic all season. It's important we got those two goals. It's gets us back to thinking good things in the summer.
"There was plenty of effort in the first half, but lacked that bit of quality. Leroy Fer has got that in his locker - he brings a little bit of extra flavour to our team.
"I think fans can see we will try our best and that we will try to put the club on an even footing. It's not up to me who stays and who doesn't stay."
Manager reaction
QPR 2-1 Newcastle
Newcastle coach John Carver: "It was a mad 10 minutes in the second half and that was hugely disappointing. I thought in first half we were in control. They weren't a threat, we were organised.
"We knew the result we tried to get today and had to get. We had to go for the win.
"Having lost, this is the best scenario with Hull losing. There's one game left and it's a do or die situation.
"We have to manage the pressure this week, focus and keep out of media spotlight. We've talked about some games in the last three, four weeks being the biggest and next week against West Ham is one of them."

Sam Allardyce must be sick of the sight of Romelu Lukaku. The Belgian has scored against West Ham every time he has played against them for Everton. Allardyce called him a "jinx" in the post-match press conference.
For the Hammers they are in pole position to qualify for the Europa League via fair play after Everton's four yellows.
For Everton they are now in the top half of the table, swapping places with the Hammers but their poor discipline today may cost them a place in Europe.

There is a lot of loving for Nigel Pearson and his teams' super form as the season ends but what about Dick Advocaat.

In the 7 games under Advocaat, Sunderland have picked up 11 points, as many as in the 14 previous Premier League games combined.
The Black Cats have two games - Arsenal and Chelsea - and need one point to stay up.

Not too sure what to make of this Queens Park Rangers lap of honour at the end of their home season.

Tottenham 2-0 Hull City
Tottenham end the season with what, in truth, was a fairly comfortable win. That it was so comfortable is a damning indictment of Hull and their hopes of remaining in this division.

Hull are giving it a go. But you feel it is too little, too late. Stephen Quinn shoots low from the edge of the box but Hugo Lloris saves. If this stays how it is - and you sense it will - Hull will have to win their last game (at home against Manchester United) and hope Sunderland have already lost their game in hand and lose again on the final day or Newcastle fail to win. Hull's saving grace could be a superior goal difference.

Some endeavour from QPR at last in these recent minutes and Matt Phillips slides to doggedly win a ball back which spills into the path of Leroy Fer.

QPR 1-1 Newcastle - Matt Phillips (54 mins)
John Carver stands hands on hips in the technical area, his side have done what they usually do, concede away from home. That's 16 in five away games for the Toon.
Simple stuff too. Charlie Austin produced a lovely left-foot cross moments ago, this time he switches and clips in from the right as Matt Phillips lurks at the back post. A good leap above his man, Tim Krul cannot cover across goal quickly enough and it's in at the near post.
CLOSE!
QPR 0-1 Newcastle
A long punt, Charlie Austin chases, Paul Dummett and Fabricio Coloccini should deal with this, bounce... bounce. Austin has the muscle, he fashion shooting space but flashes wide from 10 yards. The angle was against him.

"It's a really good run from Chadli, there was a great through-ball, then he goes around Harper, and slides it into the empty net. Spurs take the lead against the run of play - I was just about to say that they had hardly got out of their own half since half-time."

Joey Barton is in the book for a heavy challenge on the touchline which left Jonas Gutierrez in a heap. The look of frustration on Barton's face is pronounced.

How significant a goal could this be? Just after Nikica Jelavic is flagged offside after getting into a good position, Spurs rub salt in the wound as Erik Lamela finds Nacer Chadli, who rounds the keeper and slots into the empty net. Hull are sinking. Three points currently separate them and safety. The Tigers need something big.

"It's very evenly balanced, it's a case of one goal might settle it. Hull put a lot, physically and mentally, into the first half, but can they keep it up? Spurs were not at their best and I feel they might get better as the game goes on."
SUBSTITUTION
QPR 0-1 Newcastle
Yun Suk-young on for Steven Caulker in a defensive change and Junior Hoillett is replaced by 18-year-old striker Reece Grego-Cox.
KICK-OFF
QPR 0-1 Newcastle
A few minutes later than the rest, the game at Loftus Road is under way.

Tottenham 0-0 Hull City
Dame N'Doye has a half-chance to create something in the box as the ball is swung in to his feet from the right, but he is crowded out by two Spurs defenders. Soon after, a Hull corner is delivered to the head of Paul McShane, who heads wide. Good start to the half from the visitors.

Phil, Fareham: QPR are a disgrace, they have a duty to the league - not least to Leicester, Sunderland, Villa and Hull - to put in 100%. And I actually want Newcastle to stay up.
Matt: As a Birmingham fan I have great memories of the Europa League when we were in it, forget the talk about not wanting it I bet the fans do and isn't that what football is all about.
KICK-OFF
And we are back under way everywhere in the Premier League but Loftus Road. This is because of that Rob Green injury.

I miss the good old times when players scored three goals in three minutes on the way to their team hitting six. We've got players heading back out on to Premier League pitches. Second halves coming up...

Sunderland 0-0 Leicester City
Robert Huth is a defender's defender isn't he? No need for playing the ball out from the back for this guy. Frankly, he finds the idea of building play confusing. In over 45 first-half minutes the German played five passes. He lost the ball with three of them.

QPR 0-1 Newcastle
Are Queens Park Rangers overly enthused by this game? They have been void of thought or creativity but have at least covered over 51km as a team, around one kilometre less than their visitors.
They certainly have effort on show but guile, threat and conviction, not so much.
Post update
West Ham 0-0 Everton
Not much between the teams at Upton Park. West Ham feel they should have had a penalty after Cresswell's cross appeared to hit Coleman's arm. Lukaku curled a great effort high and wide for Everton while Stuart Downing had the home side's best chance.
In the all important Fair Play table it is advantage West Ham as Everton's Barry and Coleman went into Mr Friend's book while Reid was shown a yellow for the Hammers.
Few goals, plenty of tension
So far, it is an afternoon light on Premier League goals but steadily increasing in tension. Of the teams in relegation trouble at the start of play, Newcastle will undoubtedly be the happiest with their afternoon's work so far. They have the goal that lifts them up to 14th and, as it stands, top-flight safety. Hull are the team most in need. If they cannot find a goal at Spurs you suspect that could be curtains.

GREAT SAVE!
QPR 0-1 Newcastle
Think Gordon Banks down at the near post from Pele. Take away several degrees of difficulty and that's this Alex McCarthy save. It was a Daryl Janmaat shot which deflected into the path of Fabricio Coloccini and he stabbed goalwards to find McCarthy down at his near post to tip it around.
Another Newcastle goal and this is over. QPR are like a kid on the last day of term, arms folded, at ease with the world.

YELLOW CARD
Sunderland 0-0 Leicester City
Riyad Mahrez was at the double for Leicester City last week but has had little impact today. He races away from Lee Cattermole does he? No. No one does do they. Professional foul from Cattermole ends the attack before it gets going.
Post update
Tottenham 0-0 Hull City
As you can see from this touch map, Nikica Jelavic is struggling to get into the game. He's had openings but has done nothing with them. Hull need more from their main striker.
As it stands...
Wipe down that sweaty brow Hull fans. Is the air thinner up there Geordies?
Post update
QPR 0-1 Newcastle
This is worrying stuff for Queens Park Rangers. They are under the hammer here and no one more so than Nedum Onuoha at right back as Remy Cabella is the man taking much of Newcastle's play forward down the left.
His cross is cleared but put back in the mixer and Fabricio Coloccini heads down for the goalscorer but Emmanuel Riviere cannot get his feet organised and gets robbed in the box. A first-time hit was needed.

QPR 0-1 Newcastle
Rob from Newcastle: £6m. 18 hours of football. One goal. One man. Emmanuel Riviere. Worth every penny.
David, Worcs: Riviere could be the worst player ever to become a club legend if that goal keeps us up.
Post update
Tottenham 0-0 Hull City
There are some very cagey games in the Premier League this afternoon. Cagier than the Ghost Rider box set. Just the one goal so far, but a significant one as it has lifted Newcastle to safety as it stands. Hull remain the team in occupation of the final relegation spot. They could dearly do with a goal at Spurs, but so far they are struggling to make any impact in the final third.
Post update
Sunderland 0-0 Leicester City
Now then, Connor Wickham gets tugged own near the edge of the box and Sunderland could be onto something here. Lots of interest in this one, Sebastian Larsson is orchestrating things like an NFL quarterback...
It's rubbish. The Swede took it short for Wickham to blast into the wall.
Post update
Tottenham 0-0 Hull City
Hull have kept Tottenham relatively quiet, but their problem is how to shift up the gears and open up without becoming more susceptible at the back? Tottenham give warning of the threat they pose as Ryan Mason cuts a ball back for Erik Lamela to slide in and knock wide of the post.

Rob Green plods off with help from a physio. He gets a standing ovation and who knows, that could be the end of his QPR career right there. Alex McCarthy is coming on in his place.

Nico Lennon: Get in! Riviere's had poor season by anyone's standards but that goal would more than repay transfer fee if it keeps us up
Rob Cobban: Leicester league position graph upside down looks exactly like table mountain. Lions head and all. Wonder if they planned that?
Post update
No goals yet at either Upton Park or Turf Moor. There's been little in terms of goalmouth action either. You can follow Burnley v Stoke here and West Ham v Everton here.
CLOSE!
Sunderland 0-0 Leicester City
Still we wait for an opener at Sunderland. It's nervy. A corner comes in and defenders pull strikers, strikers pull defenders, it's a grapple-heavy zone. Wes Morgan gets an inch of space and prods at goal but it's hacked away. He couldn't get any purchase on it.
OUCH!
QPR 0-1 Newcastle
One way for Joey Barton to get rid of the "bad eggs" he has highlighted in the Queens Park Rangers dressing room is to wipe them all out. We don't know Rob Green is a bad egg, he looks a good sort, but Barton has just crushed a knee cap into the goalkeepers face.
It's a hide-your-eyes moment. There is blood and Green will do well to play on. Out on the canvas in his six-yard box.

Fraser McIntosh: That is one BIG goal for Newcastle. Bad news for Hull. Steve Bruce will be crying a Riviere.

QPR 0-1 Newcastle
Another look at the Newcastle opener and we can see why Queens Park Rangers are preparing for the drop. It's a route one ball over the top from Tim Krul which Emmanuel Riviere pulls down. Such simplicity.
Post update
Tottenham 0-0 Hull City
Hull play a risky game allowing Christian Eriksen to dance through their defence and set up Harry Kane on an angle on the left. Kane was burying these earlier in the season. Fortunately for Hull, he drags his shot across goal and wide.
With Sunderland currently being held by Leicester, Hull still have a rival only two points above them. But Newcastle's goal has propelled them to 14th in the table and four points clear of the Tigers.
YELLOW CARD
Sunderland 0-0 Leicester City
A concerned Dick Advocaat looks on as Liam Bridcutt gets treatment. As he gets to his feet the yellow card is brandished his way. It was his heavy tackle that led to injury. Off he hobbles, the magic sponge will right him. No lasting damage.

Tottenham 0-0 Hull City
The pressure is on Hull now after that Newcastle goal. They have a good chance to match their relegation rivals with an opening goal but Nikica Jelavic is not quick enough to pull away from the Tottenham defence after briefly appearing to have broken through. The home ranks rally, close the Tigers striker down and clear.
GOAL
QPR 0-1 Newcastle - Emmanuel Riviere
Oh yes. the back flips, the somersaults. It's like Lomana LuaLua all over again. Emmanuel Riviere has his first Newcastle goal. It's not pretty, he slips as he hits it, the ball cannons off both legs, but does he care? Not a jot. Away he goes to celebrate.
A long ball did the damage and he slipped in behind the home defence, pulled it down nicely and shot right footed - loosing his footing in the process - and his initial strike deflected of what should have been his standing leg, over Rob Green and in.
Post update
QPR 0-0 Newcastle
Robert Green has to flap a cross clear as the ball spins violently across QPR's six-yard box. Moussa Sissoko whipped in a nice delivery and the away side are growing in confidence here. Rangers have leaked 67 goals this season remember. A big opportunity this for John Carver's side.
