Liverpool stumbles against Crystal Palace in Premier League

Crystal Palace ends long wait for home win over Liverpool

At Selhurst Park Stadium, Liverpool—who started the season with five straight wins—fell to Palace, the FA Cup holders, in a repeat of the Community Shield clash last August. Substitute Federico Chiesa seemed to rescue the Reds with an 87th-minute equaliser, but Eddie Nketiah struck in stoppage time (90+7) to seal Palace’s first home victory over Liverpool since November 2014.

Manchester City returns to winning ways

At the Etihad Stadium, City bounced back from early-season setbacks against Tottenham (0-2) and Brighton (1-2) by securing their third league win and fifth in eight games across all competitions, dismantling Burnley 5-1.

Early goal drama and defensive errors

City opened the scoring in the 12th minute when French defender Maxime Estève inadvertently turned the ball into his own net after Phil Foden’s effort. Burnley equalised in similar fashion, as Jaidon Anthony’s shot deflected off Rúben Dias past goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma (38).

City’s second-half surge

Matheus Nunes restored City’s lead in the 61st minute with a close-range volley assisted by Erling Haaland. Estève compounded Burnley’s woes by scoring a second own goal in the 65th minute, becoming only the sixth player in Premier League history to do so in one match, according to Opta statistics.

Haaland delivers late double

Haaland then sealed the emphatic win with a brace, lifting his tally to 11 goals in eight matches across all competitions. He struck in the 90th minute from a Jérémy Doku assist, before adding his second deep into stoppage time after a defensive mix-up between Estève and teammate Hjalmar Ekdal.
