Son Heung-min took his Premier League goals tally to 87 with a hat-trick in Tottenham's 4-0 win over Aston Villa that maintained their push for a top-four finish.
The South Korean linked up superbly with teammate Harry Kane, while at the other end Hugo Lloris ensured a clean sheet with some remarkable first-half saves.
Kevin de Bruyne's stunning display in an entertaining 2-2 draw with Liverpool helped keep Manchester City top while Chelsea responded to twin defeats by thrashing Southampton 6-0 with Timo Werner scoring his first league goals since the corresponding fixture in September.
Brighton ended a run of six defeats in seven games with victory over Arsenal while Everton boosted their survival hopes by beating Manchester United.

Game Of Thrones Season Seven: A Bluffers Guide
Want to sound on message about the biggest show on television without actually watching it? Best not to get locked into the labyrinthine tales of revenge and royalty: as Isaac Hempstead Wright put it, all you really need to know from now on is that there’s going to be a huge fight between humans and the armies of undead White Walkers.
The season ended with a dragon captured by the Night King blowing apart the huge wall of ice that separates the human world from its less appealing counterpart. Not that some of the humans in Westeros have been particularly appealing, either.
Anyway, the White Walkers are now free to cause any kind of havoc they wish, and as Liam Cunningham told us: “Westeros may be zombie land after the Night King has finished.” If the various human factions don’t put aside their differences in season 8, we could be looking at The Walking Dead: The Medieval Years.

What is dialysis?
Dialysis is a way of cleaning your blood when your kidneys fail and can no longer do the job.
It gets rid of your body's wastes, extra salt and water, and helps to control your blood pressure. The main cause of kidney failure is diabetes and hypertension.
There are two kinds of dialysis — haemodialysis and peritoneal.
In haemodialysis, blood is pumped out of your body to an artificial kidney machine that filter your blood and returns it to your body by tubes.
In peritoneal dialysis, the inside lining of your own belly acts as a natural filter. Wastes are taken out by means of a cleansing fluid which is washed in and out of your belly in cycles.
It isn’t an option for everyone but if eligible, can be done at home by the patient or caregiver. This, as opposed to home haemodialysis, is covered by insurance in the UAE.
