Ander Herrera says Manchester United will head to White Hart Lane full of confidence as they chase a top-four finish to another turbulent season.Louis van Gaal has found plenty of critics since replacing David Moyes at Old Trafford but United head into the home straight with a chance of squeezing into the Champions League. Victory at Manchester City before the international break and a narrow win over Everton has given Herrera and his team-mates hope ahead of the Super Sundays trip to second-placed Spurs, live on Sky Sports 1 HD from 12.30.I think it is an important moment of the season because we dont have many games left, the Spanish midfielder said.Its good that we are in good form and we have to keep winning our games. Itll be a great game. They are very strong and fighting for the title.Every player wants to play in this type of game and we will go to White Hart Lane to win. Louis van Gaal believes the pressure is on Tottenham ahead of their game with United, live on Sky Sports this Sunday United are unbeaten in their last 14 league matches in north London and have lost only one of seven matches played against fellow top-six clubs this campaign.I think we perform better against top teams and always give our best, and Spurs is one of those top teams, Herrera told MUTV. Herrera: Were better than City Ander Herrera reckons Manchester United have the edge over rivals City I think Spurs and Leicester are the only teams that have been consistent. I watched Spurs game at Liverpool, they controlled pretty much all of the game and played very well in the second half and could have won.They are still fighting for the title and we have to respect them because they have very good players.I think we have seen some surprises in the Premier League, this season and Dele Alli is one of them. Also I didnt expect (Eric) Dier to play as well as he has done in midfield. Dele Alli poses a threat even without the ball, says Ander Herrera Alli is a player who doesnt need to touch the ball all the time. He waits for his moment and he has good timing into the box. He scores goals and assists often. The best way to defend against good players is by getting the ball.We have the capacity to do that, we have shown that against very good teams - we can beat them with the ball. Thats the best way to do it.We have been the better team against Arsenal, Manchester City and Chelsea so we have to believe.Watch Manchester United in action against Tottenham, live on Super Sunday on Sky Sports 1 HD from 12.30pm.By purchasing a Sky Sports Day Pass for £6.99 or Sky Sports Week Pass for £10.99, you can enjoy access to all seven Sky Sports channels and watch on a TV with a NOW TV Box or on a range of devices.Also See:Saha expects United changeVan Gaal: Im counting on RooSky Live: Tottenham v Man UtdMan Utd fixturesVapormax Scontate .C. -- Glenn Howard needed an extra end to move into the Masters Grand Slam of Curling final.

Then came Italian Vincenzo (Astana) in fourth at 1:58, Belgian race leader Greg Van Avermaet (BMC) in fifth at 2:57 and Spaniard Luis Angel Mate (Cofidis) in sixth at 4:29. Mate was first in a peloton that had been controversially stopped after the inflatable one kilometre to go arch collapsed moments before they passed under; the arch fell on Briton Adam Yates (Orica-BikeExhange), who had attacked the peloton to try to claim the young riders white jersey.A spectator came too close to the structure and, with his belt, he caught it on the cable, Philippe Sudres of Amaury Sport Organisation, the Tour de France organizer, told Cyclingnews. The cable powered the generator that powered the arch, the inflatable. We know that from a witness who was there and who talked to the police. We will reinforce the security around the structure so that this doesnt happen again. In maybe 10 to 15 years, something like this has never happened. It was an accident, not someone looking to break it.With his chin bloodied, Yates finished behind the peloton that was later given the same time -- with Yates included -- and taken with three kilometres to go. Yates needed stitches to his chin and later said he had also hurt his shoulder, wrists and sustained banged up knee.But the Brit still had cause for celebration. The race jury later awarded him the white jersey because he was ahead of the best young riders leader, Frenchman Julian Alaphilippe, by more than his six-second deficit at the three kilometres to go mark. The jersey will be presented to him before Saturdays Stage 8, 184km from Pau to Bagnères de Luchon in the Pyrénées, which includes five categorized mountains and a downhill finish.Fridays stage saw Van Avermaet hold on to his yellow jersey for Saturday, in which he will go into the second mountain stage with an extended overall lead of 5:50 on Yates, who is now second overall, and 5:51 on Alaphilippe, who has dropped a place. But the stage also stood as a reminder of how extreme and left field the challenges of racing in a Tour can be.Steve Cummings: The Tour is the biggest race on earthCummings victory was superbly executed and deserving of the laurels that came, no matter the significance of it after he was snubbed by British selectors for Rio. Initially bitter -- especially after winning four World Tour races in 12 months (now five) -- he called for the sacking of British coach Rod Ellingworth, also the performance coach of the British Sky team from which four of the five riders picked are from: Chris Froome, Geraint Thomas, Ian Stannard and Peter Kennaugh. The fifth rider picked was Yates, whose team is Australian.I think we need a new coach because of a conflict of interest, Cummings said to cyclingnews.com on July 1. Thats my opinion and maybe Ill never ride for GB again, but if thats the way it is, then thats the way it is. If you win the races Ive won this year, in the way Ive won them, and you dont get picked then you might as well say what you think.However, Cummings said he has moved on after losing an appeal foollowing Fridays win in a stage in which he was one of a 29-strong rider breakaway that formed early.dddddddddddd He broke away from a diminished group with 27km to go, then led all the way up to the summit of the first category Col dAspin and down seven kilometers to the finish. The Olympics is the Olympics, he said when asked if the Rio snubbing motivated him. They made the selection, so I am over it. As an athlete you just deal with disappointment.You just move on to the next thing. It was a blessing in disguise having the Tour de France because this is the biggest show, the biggest race on earth. It is much bigger than any Olympic Games. I am just delighted the team gave me the opportunity and believed in the strategy.Cummings, a professional since 2005 and whose first of the grand tour stage wins was in the 2012 Vuelta a Espa?a, is enjoying his best season with a stage win in each of the Tirreno-Adriatico, Vuelta al Pais Vasco and Critérium du Dauphiné races before the Tour. However, his Stage 14 win to Mende in last years Tour was a major turning point for him.That was the dream last year, and when you reach for a while after it, honestly, I didnt know what I was going to do. I was like, What do I do now? What do I? I was lost after it for months. Then when I understood what it was I did; I wanted to do it again. It also gave me the confidence to believe in myself. It took me ages to watch it. Even now when I watch it, I dont like to watch it because it makes me all funny. But I have to watch it because it gives me the confidence of what I can do. I am not the most confident person. Now I have a little video collage that I can watch when I am not feeling so good. You think, Yeah, well, now I can do it. I just have to go.Adam Yates: I had a millisecond to react Meanwhile, after surviving the collapse of the arch, Yates will feel sore and tight when he resumes racing on Saturday.I have a cut shoulder, he said. My wrist and knee are banged up, but Im OK.He was admirably stoic about his misfortune though, especially considering the circumstances that could have been far worse had the arch collapsed on the entire peloton. Im beyond disappointed really. Theres not much you can do. At one kilometer [to go], when it came down on me, I had no time to react, he told media at the stage finish. At the end of the day, it was good that it was just me on my own. If the peloton was there in a sprint stage -- at 70 to 80 kilometers per hour -- it wouldve been worse. I had a millisecond to react, thats not long enough to pull the brakes, the barrier came down. I hit it, I had no time to react or hit the brakes.Yates, who found himself off the front of the peloton with Irishman Dan Martin (Etixx-QuickStep) and Australian Richie Porte (BMC) just before the top of the Col dAspin, sped away on the seven-kilometer descent to the finish. He admitted he took some risks. At the top of the climb, I followed Dan Martin when he attacked. I took risk on the descent to get the white jersey. I had five or seven seconds, but thats it. My race [was] finished.Yates, racing his second Tour and third year as a professional, was even able to joke a little about his fate, saying: Im OK. I think I have four stitches. I think I crash a lot on my chin. In [the 2014 Clasica] San Sebastian I had eight stitches, then the time before seven stitches -- quite a lot of crashes on my chin, but Im OK. You get on with it.
