team was unmatched, with goals from
Steven Naismith and Romelu Lukaku
while the third was an own goal. Arsenal
has 64 points in fourth place while Everton
is just a point behind with a game in hand
as well. It appears Tottenham has thrown
their hat back into the race for the final
Champions League spot as they are just a
point behind Everton after a 5—1 win over
Sunderland that has made the Black Cats
relegation all but guaranteed.
Meanwhile in the top three.
