WHAT AN EXCITING MOMENT OF SPORT THIS MATCH PROVED TO BE LAST NIGHT (19/08/2024) BETWEEN LEICESTER CITY VS TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR, WITH PEDRO PORRO SCORING AT 29 MINS. FOR TOTTENHAM, LEAVING LEICESTER CITY LOOKING FOR SOLUTIONS, UNTIL ON COMES LEICESTER CITY’S LONG-TIME HERO JAMIE VARDY, SEEMINGLY FLYING OFF THE BENCH IN HIS CAPE TO SAVE THE DAY WITH A STUPENDOUS HEADER AT 57 MINS., LOOKING FIT AND FULLY-RECOVERED AFTER HIS LONG-TERM INJURY WHICH HAD LEFT HIM SIDELINED FOR SO LONG! THERE WERE A TOTAL OF 15 SHOTS WITH 7 SHOTS ON TARGET FOR TOTTENHAM, AND 7 SHOTS, WITH 3 SHOTS ON TARGET FOR LEICESTER CITY, WHICH WERE ALL EXCELLENT CHANCES, BUT JUST UNABLE TO REACH THE BACK OF THE NET DUE TO THE EQUALLY EXCELLENT GOALKEEPING OF HERMANSEN AND VICARIO! THE GAME CULMINATED IN AN EXCITING 1 R...

WITH MUCH BEMUSEMENT (AND TALK) AROUND THE FACT THAT RAHEEM STERLING WAS LEFT OUT OF CHELSEA’S SQUAD WHILST PLAYING AGAINST MANCHESTER CITY THIS AFTERNOON (INCLUDING FROM HIS OWN CAMP WHO SAY THEY WOULD LIKE “FURTHER CLARITY” ABOUT HIS FUTURE IN THE CLUB) IT DIDN’T DAMPEN THE FACT THAT IN THE SUNSHINE THIS AFTERNOON, CHELSEA WERE PLAYING MANCHESTER CITY IN THE NEW SEASON OF THE PREMIER LEAGUE! CHELSEA HAD 10 SHOTS, WITH 3 SHOTS ON TARGET, AND MAN CITY 11 SHOTS, WITH 5 SHOTS ON TARGET, INCLUDING 2 STUNNING GOALS, FROM ERLING HAALAND AT 18 MINS., AND MATEO KOVACIC AT 84 MINS., MEANING THAT THIS SUPERB GAME CULMINATED IN A 2 – 0 WIN TO MANCHESTER CITY, WITH A FANTASTIC START TO THE PREMIER LEAGUE SEASON! CHELSEA VS MANCHESTER CITY

WHAT A START FOR AMADOU ONANA YESTERDAY ON HIS DEBUT FOR ASTON VILLA, SCORING AT JUST 4 MINS. INTO THE MATCH WITH A BRILLIANT ‘HIGH HEADER’, AND THEN CAME ONE OPPORTUNITY AFTER ANOTHER – FOR BOTH SIDES. (15 SHOTS, WITH 3 ON TARGET FOR ASTON VILLA, AND 14 SHOTS WITH 3 ON TARGET FOR WEST HAM.) BAILEY TOOK A SHOT VERY SHORTLY AFTER ONANA, WHICH JUST BOUNCED OFF THE POST, AND THEN BAILEY AGAIN, THIS TIME, SHAVING THE POST, AND THEN WITH LUCAS PAQUETA TAKING A PENALTY (AFTER A BIT OF COMPLICATED PLAY AND A ‘REFEREE CALL’), WHICH HE LITERALLY ‘ROLLED’ INTO THE BACK OF THE NET! EMERSON THEN FOLLOWED ON WITH THE EXCITEMENT, TAKING A GREAT SHOT WHICH JUST GOES WIDE, AND THEN, ANTONIO SHOOTS OVER THE TOP! AND THEN WITH DURAN’S GREAT EFFORT JUST GOING O...

IT WAS A FEISTY AFFAIR OVER AT THE NEWCASTLE UNITED VS SOUTHAMPTON MATCH, WITH A CLASH BETWEEN FABIAN SCHAR AND BEN BRERETON DIAZ CAUSING A BIT OF BAD-TEMPERED “BUTTING OF HEADS” DRAMA ON PITCH – WHICH CONTINUED INTO THE TUNNEL AT HALF-TIME, WITH SOME ARGEY-BARGEY BETWEEN DAN BURNS AND JAN BEDNAREK, AS NEWCASTLE WEREN’T HAPPY WITH THE REF’S DECISION ABOUT GIVING SCHAR THE RED CARD, BUT A VAR CHECK HAD MADE REF CRAIG PAWSON RIGHT IN SENDING HIM OFF! SCHAR WILL NOW RECEIVE A THREE-MATCH BAN! THERE WERE ANOTHER 19 SHOTS FOR SOUTHAMPTON, INCLUDING 4 ON TARGET, AND NEWCASTLE HAD ANOTHER 3 SHOTS, INCLUDING 1 ON TARGET! AND IT WAS, IN FACT, JOELINTON’S GOAL AT 45 MINS., WHICH WON THE DAY, AS THE ONLY GOAL OF THE MATCH! NO DOUBT, HIS TEAM-MATES BOUGHT HIM A FEW ...

FABIAN HURZELER’S FIRST DAY AT THE OFFICE AS THE NEW BRIGHTON MANAGER (THE YOUNGEST PERMANENT MANAGER EVER IN PREMIER LEAGUE HISTORY) COULDN’T HAVE GONE ANY BETTER YESTERDAY, AS DESPITE A DETERMINED START FROM EVERTON, WITH A POWERFUL STRIKE FROM HARRISON EARLY DOORS, THEIR EFFORTS WERE CONFOUNDED BY THE EXTREMELY ENERGETIC SEAGULLS, WITH KAORU MITOMA SCORING A STUNNER AT 25 MINS., AND DANNY WELLBECK ANOTHER AT 56 MINS., AND THEN, TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, ASHLEY YOUNG WAS GIVEN A RED CARD AT 66 MINS. FOR PULLING MITOMA BACK BY HIS HAND, MEANING THAT EVERTON WERE DOWN TO 10 MEN! BRIGHTON’S SIMON ADINGRA THEN WENT ON TO SCORE A SUPERB LATE FINISHER AT 87 MINS, MEANING THAT THE GAME CULMINATED IN A 3 – 0 WIN TO BRIGHTON! EVERTON VS BRIGHTON AND HOVE ALBION AFTERWARDS, BR...

THERE WAS A WORRYING START TO THE NOTTINGHAM FOREST VS BOURNEMOUTH MATCH YESTERDAY, AS DANILO AND SEMENYO HAD AN ACCIDENTAL COMING-TOGETHER, LEAVING BOTH MEN ON THE GROUND, WITH DANILO LOOKING LIKE HE HAD A DISLOCATED ANKLE. (WE WISH HIM ALL THE BEST FOR A FULL AND SPEEDY RECOVERY, AND WILL PROVIDE AN UPDATE AS TO HIS CONDITION A.S.A.P.) THIS SHOOK EVERYONE AND A LONG DELAY TOOK PLACE WHILST THE MEDICS ATTENDED DANILO, WITH THE CROWD ON ALL SIDES APPLAUDING WHEN DANILO WAS STRETCHERED OFF WITH HIS THUMB IN THE AIR! NOTTINGHAM FOREST VS BOURNEMOUTH BOTH TEAMS ENCOURAGED EACH OTHER TO REFOCUS AND CONTINUE AFTERWARDS (WITH SEMENYO RECEIVING MUCH ENCOURAGEMENT AND SUPPORT ESPECIALLY) AND THEN DANILO WAS REPLACED BY RYAN YATES, WITH YATES WASTING NO TIME IN MAKING HIS INJURED TEAM-MATE PROUD, B...

ANOTHER SUPER-STAR MATCH FROM TODAY WITH HIGH-OCTANE EXCITEMENT WAS THIS ONE BETWEEN ARSENAL VS WOLVES! ARSENAL’S KAI HAVERTZ SCORED A BLINDER AT 25 MINS., WITH BUKAYO SAKA SCORING A STUNNING LATE GOAL AT 84 MINS., GIVING ARSENAL A 2 – 0 WIN OVER WOLVES!

BACK TO THIS AFTERNOON’S PREMIER LEAGUE ACTION AND THE EXCITING MATCH WHICH HAS JUST FINISHED BETWEEN LIVERPOOL VS IPSWICH TOWN!  WELL, THE ARNE SLOT ERA CERTAINLY KICKED-OFF TO A FLYING START TODAY, WITH LIVERPOOL SCORING TWO EXCITING GOALS IN A DYNAMIC MATCH AGAINST IPSWICH TOWN!

CHECK OUT THIS EXCITEMENT FROM LAST NIGHT BETWEEN MAN UNITED VS FULHAM FOR STAR-STUDDED ACTION! BOTH SIDES CREATED MANY CHANCES, WITH FULHAM HAVING 10 SHOTS, AND 2 ON TARGET, AND MAN UNITED WITH 14 SHOTS AND 5 ON TARGET, BUT DESPITE THIS, BOTH SIDES WERE UNABLE TO FINISH UNTIL JOSHUA ZIRKZEE SCORED A LATE STUNNER AT 87 MINS. ON HIS DEBUT MATCH, PROVING JUST WHAT A GOOD SIGNING HE IS! THANKS TO ZIRKZEE’S GOAL, MANCHESTER UNITED TOOK HOME ALL 3 POINTS AGAINST FULHAM, AND ALTHOUGH ERIK TEN HAG IS SEEMINGLY RUEING THE MISSED OPPORTUNITIES IN THE MATCH, HE MUST BE HAPPY ABOUT THE FACT THAT THIS MATCH TURNED OUT TO BE A SOMEWHAT SPIFFY OPENER TO THE PREMIER LEAGUE SEASON FOR MANCHESTER UNITED!
