Tottenham receive huge boost in the race for the top four

Tottenham Hotspur received a huge boost in the race for the top four today, and they didn’t even have to take to the pitch to earn it.

Arsenal faced a tough away trip to Everton in the Premier League, with the chance to take three points and overtake Spurs into third once again.

However, the Gunners failed to turn up against the toffees, which proved to be a ticking point.

Everton were unlucky not to win the game by four or five as they carved chance after chance, however, an early goal proved to be enough to secure the 1-0 victory.

Tottenham have an unlikely hero in Phil Jagielka, as he cements their position as third in the Prem with just six games left to play.

Spurs are now one point above Arsenal and Chelsea, and three points above Manchester United.

The Lilywhites also have four home games from their last six matches. Can they do it?
