Tottenham Hotspur's 3-1 win over West Ham United on Sunday in the latest of a growing list of disruptions to Premier League matches.Stadium security staff have been on high-alert all weekend following a series of incidents during top flight matches where activists have stormed the pitch attempting to tie themselves to the post, but staff at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium were quick to react and hauled two men and a woman away from the pitch before another major delay was caused.The protesters were all wearing t-shirts with the words 'Just Stop Oil' written on them - referring to the political pressure group by the same name who are reportedly campaigning against the expansion of oil fields in the North Sea.The brief pause - which came part-way through the second half - did little to disrupt Tottenham's flow, who leapfrogged both West Ham and Manchester United into fifth place following an emphatic victory.

Your Manchester City evening headlines for Sunday, March 13.

Richard Keys believes that Cristiano Ronaldo's goalscoring record should not count after the Portuguese ace notched a hat-trick to inspire Manchester United to victory over Tottenham Hotspur.

Former Manchester United left-back Patrice Evra has sent a jovial message to Cristiano Ronaldo, with the Frenchman hitting back at his former teammate's critics after he scored a hat-trick to seal a 3-2 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday evening.

Pep Guardiola will undoubtedly be asked, at the next opportunity, about the fact Manchester City appear to be moving ever closer to a deal for Erling Haaland this summer. His response is entirely predictable - he will sigh and say that he does not speak about players who belong to other clubs and that Haaland remains on Borussia Dortmund’s payroll.

Cristiano Ronaldo showed his anger towards Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick in his match-winning performance in the 3-2 win over Tottenham, according to Roy Keane. Ronaldo moved onto 807 career goals with a brilliant display at Old Trafford which included his 59th hat-trick.He opened the scoring with a thunderbolt into the top corner from 25 yards but an Alex Telles handball allowed Harry Kane to equalise from the penalty spot for Spurs.The 37-year-old gave United the lead once again with a tap-in from Jadon Sancho’s pass before an own goal from Harry Maguire made it 2-2.Ronaldo struck for a final time in the 81st minute, powering in a header from a corner to move United past Arsenal into fourth place in the Premier League.It was a classic performance from the Portuguese superstar – and Keane believes it was born out of frustration with his situation at the club."That’s where United are at, the quality of both teams wasn’t great,” he said on Sky Sports.“But it was entertaining and Ronaldo stepped up to the plate.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s hat-trick inspired Manchester United to a crucial 3-2 victory over Tottenham and ensured he broke yet another goalscoring record, but Richard Keys has cast doubt over the superstar’s latest achievement.The 37-year-old looked back to his devastating best after a fine individual display to score all three goals and boost United’s hopes in the battle for a top-four finish in the Premier League.His first strike was a stunning 25-yard effort that sailed into the top corner past Hugo Lloris to open the scoring and, after Harry Kane equalised from the penalty spot, he restored the advantage just before the break.Jadon Sancho sprung the offside trap to set up Ronaldo for a tap-in, before Harry Maguire’s own goal brought the visitors back level.But it was Ronaldo again who rose to the occasion as he powered a header into the top corner late on to clinch three important points for the Red Devils.That hat-trick, the 59th of his professional career, means that he has now bagged 807 goals in professional football — the most by any player in history.But according to Keys, the former Sky Sports presenter who now hosts beIN Sports’ Premier League coverage in Qatar, Ronaldo’s legitimacy as the record holder can be brought under question by Brazil legend Pele.“It is an extraordinary achievement, 806 goals, whichever way you look at it,” Keys said in a post-match discussion on beIN Sports.“But there is some dispute as to whether it is a record.

Cristiano Ronaldo headed straight down the tunnel while clapping Manchester United fans after scoring a hat-trick vs Tottenham - choosing not to claim the match ball himselfThe 37-year-old added to his first-half screamer and tap in with a booming second-half header to ensure Harry Kane's penalty and Harry Maguire's own goal meant nothing.Having been subbed off immediately after grabbing his third, there was no huge celebration from Ronaldo at full-time - and he headed inside while clapping Old Trafford fans.Although he didn't collect the match ball himself, Ronaldo is said to have asked a member of staff to do so as he turned his attentions to Atletico Madrid.One fan said in response: "Bro ain’t even stress for the match ball."With a second saying: "Ronaldo didn’t even bother to pick up the match ball. 59 hat tricks."A third added: "Ronaldo got too many match balls, didn't bother with his 59th today."With a fourth concluding: "Ronaldo ran down the tunnel without even going to get the match ball because jobs not finished."Is Ronaldo the greatest of all time? Give us your thoughts in the comments sectionRoy Keane was asked about the impact of Ronaldo on Sky Sports, and he noted that the five-time Ballon d'Or winner seemed angry.Keane said: "He was angry today.

Ralf Rangnick looked destined for another frustrating evening at Old Trafford, as Antonio Conte’s side twice came back from a goal behind to level the contest. Ronaldo spectacularly ended his recent goal drought, accepting a neat flick from Fred, before launching a majestic 30 yard effort past a helpless Hugo Lloris.

Tottenham supporters have hailed the "excellent s***house behaviour" shown by Cristian Romero in his taunting of Harry Maguire as they took on Manchester United on Saturday. The Argentina international defender screamed in the face of the England defender after he had put the ball into his own net the level up the scores at 2-2.

NFL icon Tom Brady has been spotted at Manchester United, but Tottenham Hotspur fans are convinced he is there to support them.The seven-time Super Bowl champion has plenty of free time on his hands now, having announced his retirement from the NFL back in February following more than two decades playing in the league.United's owners, the Glazer family, also own the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who Brady spent the final two seasons of his career playing for.However, Spurs fans believe Brady is instead at Old Trafford to support them, having reportedly formed a friendship with striker Harry Kane in recent years.Reports ahead of the game stated that Brady will be in attendance at Old Trafford as United and Spurs meet in a huge clash in the race for the top four.Spurs fans were quick to claim that the 44-year-old was there to watch Antonio Conte's side, despite his relationship with the United owners.Brady thanked the Glazers for their support during his time with the Buccaneers when he announced his retirement last month.Instead, they pointed to Brady's friendship with Spurs striker Kane as to why he is present at the match.Will Tottenham Hotspur finish in the top four this season?
