London: Goals from Victor Wanyama and Harry Kane earned Tottenham Hotspur a 2-1 victory over Manchester United on Sunday in their final game at White Hart Lane.

Spurs plan to have their new stadium, built on the same site, ready for the 2018-19 campaign and will temporarily play their home matches at Wembley next season.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side had already secured second place in the table, but wanted to leave their current ground, where they have spent 118 years, on a high by staying unbeaten there this season.

Wanyama got Spurs off to the best possible start with a header five minutes in and Kane doubled their lead early in the second half, flicking home from a Christian Eriksen free-kick.

Captain Wayne Rooney gave Man United hope of a recovery when he poked in from Anthony Martial’s delivery, but they were unable to spoil the leaving party.

United knew before kick-off that their chances of finishing in the top four were over after Liverpool’s 4-0 win over West Ham earlier in the day.

They can still qualify for the Champions League if they win the Europa League, but Jose Mourinho will have to settle for fifth or sixth place in his first season at the club.

Tottenham’s title chances ended last week following their defeat by West Ham, and the trophy went to Chelsea on Friday.

With a Champions League place already guaranteed, Pochettino said their final home match was all about making it a special day for the fans.

The teams walked out to a display of flags around the ground and Spurs legends including Chris Waddle and Glenn Hoddle were invited as special guests.

Jurgen Klopp’s team, meanwhile, kept their top-four destiny in their own hands as Philippe Coutinho’s double earned them a 4-0 victory at West Ham that moved them back above Manchester City into third.

Arsenal’s late surge had put Liverpool under immense pressure but they responded in style and will definitely finish in the top-four if they beat relegated Middlesbrough at Anfield on the final day of the season next Sunday.

Anything other than a victory at West Ham’s London Stadium would have left Liverpool relying on other results going their way but once Daniel Sturridge put them ahead in the 35th minute they were relatively comfortable.

Coutinho struck twice in the space of four minutes midway through the second half and Divock Origi rubbed salt into West Ham’s wounds as the visitors ran riot.

At the other end of the table, however, Marco Silva admitted Hull City had only themselves to blame after a 4-0 thrashing by Crystal Palace on Sunday saw them relegated from the Premier League.

Palace went into the relegation tussle at Selhurst Park needing one point to stay up and took the upper hand from the start with a goal inside three minutes from Wilfried Zaha.

Christian Benteke gave Palace a two-goal cushion before halftime when he headed home Jason Puncheon’s corner in the 34th minute for his 15th league goal.

Palace, with Luka Milivojevic adding an 85th-minute penalty and substitute Patrick van Aanholt completing the rout in stoppage time, climbed to 13th on 41 points leaving Hull in 18th with 34, four adrift of 17th-placed Swansea with one match remaining.

Silva has already been linked with a close-season move to Premier League side Watford and was coy when asked about his future after the Palace debacle at Selhurst Park.
