Spurs coach Ange Postecoglou has signalled his team are firmly focused on a top four finish after a thumping 4-1 victory over Champions League rivals Aston Villa.

Dominic Solanke scored twice as Tottenham blitzed Aston Villa in the second half on Sunday, winning 4-1 to move just two points behind their rivals for a top-four finish in the Premier League.

Chants of 'we're going to win the league' ringing around Nottingham Forest's home, the City Ground, would have been unthinkable weeks ago.

Manchester City suffered their first Premier League loss since December as Bournemouth stunned the champions, while Arsenal were rocked by Newcastle and Liverpool seized top spot.

Ruben Amorim has promised the "soap opera is coming to an end" and will clarify his future after Sporting Lisbon's match on Friday as speculation mounts that he is on the brink of becoming Manchester United's new manager.

Ruben Amorim is expected to be confirmed as Manchester United's new manager on Thursday after the club reached an agreement with Sporting Lisbon, reports said.

Ange Postecoglou "always wins things" in his second season in charge and his big statement remains on track as Tottenham defeated heavyweights Manchester City 2-1 to advance to the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.

Scoring wonder goals at training is nothing unusual for Matildas star Kyra Cooney-Cross, so when she finally got the chance to unleash from a considerable distance in match, she wasn't going to pass it up.

Ruben Amorim said Tuesday that "nothing is decided yet" after Manchester United made the Sporting Lisbon coach their top target to replace sacked manager Erik ten Hag.

The gloom created by the Matildas' group stage exit at the Olympics might be starting to fade after two positive results, but there is still a host of fundamental issues the side needs to address before they can really move on from what happened in France.
