The live Premier League football this festive season continues tomorrow night. We're at Anfield to see Liverpool against Stoke. That's from five. All these games on Sky Sports 1 and available in Ultra HD. Wednesday night, South Coast for Southampton against Tottenham from 7.30. The Friday night football is back. It's Hull in action again, this time at home to Everton from 7. And then on New Year's Day, a Super Sunday doubleheader. We begin with Watford against Tottenham from 12.30. From 3.30, it is Arsenal against Crystal Palace. And there is a fantastical drama for the whole family to enjoy in The Last Dragon Slayer. If you missed it on Christmas Day, it's available to watch on demand right now with Catch Up TV.
A man said he had a way, but in the end they did slay Hull. Toure from the spot. Ian Atcher weighed in with the goal as well. Harsh on Hull, but an own goal from Curtis Davis at the end. 3-0, three wins on the spin for City. Hull remain rooted to the bottom of the Premier League. The truth, Mike Fader will be pretty happy with a lot of what he saw tonight. But this is where Hull sit at the end of Boxing Day. Bottom of the Premier League. Their last win coming on the 6th of November. Just one win in their last 16. And of the 24 sides to be bottom of the Premier League at Christmas 21. have been relegated. And after that defeat to Leicester earlier this month, it's now three wins in a row for Manchester City.
And after Chelsea's 12th win in a row today, key win this evening for City. It takes them second, cuts the gap on the leaders down now to seven points. Liverpool, as we mentioned, at home to Stoke tomorrow night in our live game. So, Toure with the opening goal from the penalty spot. Ten pens out of ten for him in the Premier League. Man of the match performance here. Nacho weighed in with a goal as well, both alongside Patrick Davison.
Guys, well played. 3-0 looks comfortable, but did you have to come through a real battle to get to that scoreline?
Yeah, to be honest, I think the beginning was very tough. We were playing well, three on the back. It was very tough tonight for us, but I think In the end, we win, that's the most important, and I think I'm very delighted with the trip.
And you've never missed a Premier League penalty, but because it was 0-0 at the time, was there a bit of pressure on this one?
To be honest, yeah, because, you know, sometimes it's always difficult, you know, because when you have to step up in the penalty like that. But as well, to be honest, yesterday when I was talking with my kid, because my boy, it was his birthday, Christmas time? Yeah, because it's his birthday today, I think. Yeah, I think it's amazing.
How did Manchester City secure their 3-0 victory over Hull?
He told me, you're going to score the goal, but he didn't want it. But I think I'm feeling delighted. That's for my boy Sidney, yeah.
Fletcher, you came on at 0-0. Initially, was it quite hard to get into the match? Because Hull were actually maybe on top at that stage.
Yeah, I think Hull is a very strong team, so they have great players, quality players. I think coming in was what I wanted. I came in, so I think the whole team did very well, so we played really well. We played them, and at the end we got the three points, that's all we needed.
You've got the key second goal to almost settle the game. Three wins in a row now. Do you feel the confidence surging back with Watford-Arsenal and now this win?
Yeah, I think we're getting our confidence back and going into the winning mentality. So I think we are stepping up now. So we are strong in the back and in the front now, scoring goals and getting the win and getting the points that we needed. So that's all we need to get the points. So I think in the next games we'll be strong and we'll get the win.
You've obviously been a huge player for Man City in the past. The start of this season was very tough for you, but do you feel like you're as good as new and as influential as ever at Man City now?
I think I'm always delighted to play, to help my teammates and to entertain the fans. That's what I like and that's what I want to do.
