As always, it’s been a very exciting weekend in the Premier League.There were matters at the top and bottom of the table to be addressed and there were all sorts of twists in the race to finish in the Champions League spots.Below you can see a review of the weekend’s action.
ARSENAL 2-0 MANCHESTER UNITED
Arsenal returned to the top four by ending Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s unbeaten Premier League run as Manchester United manager with a hard-fought victory over their rivals.
11CHELSEA 1-1 WOLVES
Eden Hazard’s stoppage-time strike salvaged a 1-1 draw for Chelsea in Sunday’s Premier League clash with Wolves.Raul Jimenez’s breakaway goal after 56 minutes had looked like sealing victory for Wolves and ending Chelsea’s recent resurgence.But Hazard popped up with his 13th Premier League goal of the season to earn a point on Chelsea’s 114th birthday.
11LIVERPOOL 4-2 BURNLEY
Liverpool got back to winning ways by coming from behind in testing circumstances to beat Burnley 4-2.Jurgen Klopp’s side ensured they stayed in touch with Manchester City after overcoming Ashley Westwood’s controversial first goal for the club.Key to the win was Adam Lallana, not the most popular choice among fans to replace Jordan Henderson in midfield, who on only his fifth start of the season had a hand in the first two goals for Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane.
11CARDIFF 2-0 WEST HAM
Cardiff kept in touch with the Premier League strugglers above them by beating West Ham 2-0.Junior Hoilett and Victor Camarasa scored as Cardiff ended a run of three successive defeats with a victory that was rarely in doubt from the fourth minute.But Southampton’s comeback win against Tottenham leaves Cardiff in the bottom three and two points from safety.Although Cardiff remain in the relegation zone with eight games left to play, this victory will offer hope to Neil Warnock’s side that they can survive.
11HUDDERSFIELD TOWN 0-2 BOURNEMOUTH
Callum Wilson scored on his return to action as Bournemouth halted their away-day blues with a 2-0 win at bottom club Huddersfield.Wilson, back from a seven-week injury lay-off, chested home a first-half opener and laid on Bournemouth’s second for Ryan Fraser in front of watching England boss Gareth Southgate.The Cherries snapped a nine-game Premier League losing run on the road, while a 15th defeat in 17 league matches for Huddersfield nudged them closer to the trapdoor.
11LEICESTER CITY 3-1 FULHAM
Jamie Vardy passed a century of goals for Leicester as the Foxes piled further misery on doomed Fulham.The striker scored twice late on to take his Foxes tally to 101 and seal a 3-1 win in Brendan Rodgers’ first home game in charge.Youri Tielemans’ first goal for the club opened the scoring as Leicester rose to 10th in the Premier League.Floyd Ayite’s first goal for over a year hauled the Cottagers level but they slipped to a sixth straight defeat.
11MANCHESTER CITY 3-1 WATFORD
Raheem Sterling scored a 13-minute hat-trick as champions Manchester City beat Watford 3-1 to maintain their lead at the top of the Premier League.There was an element of controversy over the England forward’s first goal but his quickfire treble turned a frustrating game decisively in City’s favour early in the second half.Gerard Deulofeu did pull one back for the visitors at the Etihad Stadium but City held on to turn up the heat on closest challengers Liverpool, however, they overcame Burnley at Anfield on Sunday.
11NEWCASTLE 3-2 EVERTON
Ayoze Perez scored a late double as Newcastle fought back to win a five-goal thriller on an afternoon Everton keeper Jordan Pickford will want to forget.Pickford had earlier escaped a red card after conceding a penalty which he saved, but was beaten three times inside the last 25 minutes as the Magpies roared back to snatch a priceless 3-2 victory.Marco Silva’s men looked to be coasting after Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison had given them a 2-0 lead either side of Matt Ritchie’s missed spot-kick, but Salomon Rondon’s strike set up a grandstand finish in which Perez struck twice inside three minutes to help the Magpies claim a fifth successive home win.
11SOUTHAMPTON 2-1 TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR
Southampton scored twice in five second-half minutes to boost their Premier League survival hopes with a 2-1 win over Tottenham, whose grip on the top-four positions loosened even further.Harry Kane’s 200th career goal for club and country was reward for a dominant first-half display, but Saints turned it around after the break and won it through quickfire goals from Yan Valery and James Ward-Prowse.It was a vital and deserved comeback from Ralph Hasenhuttl’s men, who stayed two points clear of the relegation zone.
11CRYSTAL PALACE 1-2 BRIGHTON
Brighton edged closer to preserving their Premier League status with a satisfying 2-1 victory at rivals Crystal Palace.The visitors’ second successive league triumph, having previously been winless in 2019, moved them level with Palace on 33 points with nine games to go and back into contention for a mid-table finish after their poor form had left them at risk of relegation.Chris Hughton’s team have further difficult fixtures between now and the season’s end, but the rediscovery of a sense of momentum, this time secured by goals from Glenn Murray and Anthony Knockaert, looks likely to carry them to safety.Luka Milivojevic’s penalty had briefly brought Palace level, but, as they struggled to create chances, fine finishes from Murray, only recalled when Florin Andone was injured in the pre-match warm-up, and Knockaert justified Brighton’s three points.
