Arsenal, Palace have games moved to ease pile-up Arsenal and Crystal Palace have been granted permission to rearrange December games away to Everton and Leeds United respectively after the Premier League cited "player welfare" for the decision to green-light the clubs' requests to ease a fixture pile-up. Premier League leaders Arsenal and FA Cup holders Palace are due to meet in a Carabao Cup quarterfinal at the Emirates Stadium on Dec. 23 after the tie was rescheduled from the previous week due to Palace's UEFA Conference League clash against Finnish team KuPS on Dec. 18. That fixture change has impacted the Premier League commitments of both teams, however, with Arsenal and Palace scheduled to play crucial league games just two days before the Carabao Cup tie. But after the t...

Thiago nets twice as Brentford beat Newcastle Igor Thiago scored a late double as Brentford came from behind to defeat Newcastle United and extend the visitors' miserable Premier League record on the road. Harvey Barnes had put Newcastle ahead in the first half at the Gtech Community Stadium after lashing the ball through the legs of goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher from inside the box. But Brentford came roaring back after the break and the hosts drew level through Kevin Schade's header after Sven Botman could only flick Michael Kayode's long throw across the box to the forward, who nodded home. It was Brentford, rather than Newcastle, who pushed for a winner and the hosts were awarded a spot-kick by referee Stuart Attwell when Dan Burn took down Dango Ouattara inside the box. ...

Everton beat Fulham to end three-match winless run Idrissa Gueye and Michael Keane got the goals as Everton ended a three-game winless run in the Premier League with victory against Fulham at Hill Dickinson Stadium. The first half looked set to end in frustration for David Moyes' team after Thierno Barry and James Tarkowski had efforts ruled out for offside, but Gueye slammed home a loose ball in stoppage time to give the Toffees a deserved lead. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall found the bottom corner early in the second half but became the third Everton player to be thwarted by the linesman's flag, after Barry strayed offside from Iliman Ndiaye's knock-down. Fulham created little in the first half but improved later in the game, Rodrigo Muniz forcing Jordan Pickford into a smart save an...

latest football live scores : Spurs 2-2 Man Utd

Matthijs de Ligt scored an equaliser deep into stoppage time to earn Manchester United a point in a Premier League thriller at Tottenham. In an astonishing climax to a game the visitors seemed to have control of, Brazilian striker Richarlison appeared to have won the game for Tottenham when he flicked Wilson Odobert's long-range shot past Senne Lammens. But in the last of six minutes of injury time, with keeper Lammens up for a Manchester United corner, De Ligt found the net from an acute angle to give his side a point. There were disbelieving looks from both sides at the end.Richarlison was almost in tears, having jubilantly celebrated his goal, only to realise it had not proved to be the winner. Meanwhile, United head coach Ruben Amorim was equally stunned, having watched his...

Amorim: Sesko has 'struggled' since Man Utd move Ruben Amorim has admitted Benjamin Sesko has "struggled" since his summer move to Manchester United, following criticism directed at the striker from former defender Gary Neville. Sesko has scored two goals in 11 games following his £73.7 million ($97m) move from RB Leipzig.After a frustrating game in the 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest, during which the 22-year-old managed just 21 touches in 90 minutes, Neville said he "wants to see more" from the Slovenian, who he also described as "awkward." Asked about the comments, Amorim accepted Sesko has found it tough at United.

Erling Haaland: I’ve never felt better than I do this season Erling Haaland feels he is in the best shape he has ever been after making a stunning start to the season. The prolific Manchester City and Norway striker has plundered 27 goals in just 17 appearances for club and country this season. Even by the 25-year-old’s own high standards – he has netted 142 times in 160 games overall for City since signing in 2022 – the numbers he is posting this term are extraordinary. Haaland said: “It’s been a good start and I feel really good. I feel this is the best version of myself. I’ve never felt better than now. “To keep sharp, I need to keep my mind in the right place, I need to recover well, I need to get a lot of treatment, I need to eat the right things. “It’s staying in th...

football is live: Liverpool injury boost ahead of Man City clash

Sweden national team manager Graham Potter has called up Liverpool’s Alexander Isak and revealed that he expects the striker to feature against Manchester City this weekend. This comes as an unexpected boost for Liverpool, who have been without their club-record signing since he damaged his adductor four games ago, with a daunting trip to the Etihad on Sunday. Arne Slot has been reluctant to divulge too much information about Isak’s health, but more light has now been shed on the situation by Potter. The freshly appointed Sweden boss described Isak as “available” ahead of November’s World Cup qualifiers against Switzerland and Slovenia. However, he also admitted that his star striker was not yet back to full fitness. “We’ll see this weekend. Hopefully he can play against ...

live sport: Arteta urge Premier League to move Everton fixture

Mikel Arteta Mikel Arteta has called on the Premier League to move Arsenal's match against Everton to avoid the Gunners having two games in three days. The EFL announced on Monday that the Carabao Cup quarter-final between Arsenal and Crystal Palace had been moved to 23 December, saying fixture pile-ups of this nature were now "entirely unavoidable".

foot ball: Haaland moves City to second spot

Borussia Dortmund do not need warning about Erling Haaand. He scored 89 goals for them and had since added 141 for Manchester City. Yet the Norwegian is hungrier than ever. He proved the point with two first-half goals in City’s 3-1 defeat of Bournemouth. This was just the sort of confidence-creating platform manager Pep Guardiola wanted for both his star striker and his team ahead of Dortmund’s visit. Haaland struck a memorable acrobatic winner against Dortmund in City’s 2:1 Champions League victory in September 2022 and has already scored four times in three Champions League ties this term. His form continues to be lethal. He boasts a remarkable 26 goals in 16 matches this season for club and country. Bournemouth had kicked off in second place in the table but Haaland and his team-mate...

Impressive West Ham beat Newcastle

Spirited West Ham came from behind to record their first home win of the season against Newcastle United at the London Stadium. Jacob Murphy had given Newcastle the lead with an effort from the edge of the area in the opening stages - just seconds after West Ham captain Jarrod Bowen hit the post at the other end. But West Ham rallied and the hosts' eventually got their rewards when Lucas Paqueta lashed home an equaliser from outside the box. West Ham then took the lead just before half-time when the sliding Sven Botman turned Aaron Wan-Bissaka's cross into his own net. Nuno Espirito Santo's team went on to score a third in stoppage time when substitute Tomas Soucek tapped in the rebound after Pope had denied Bowen. It was the least West Ham deserved following a committed dis...

Arsenal win at Burnley to go seven points clear Premier League leaders Arsenal continued their impressive start to the season with a comfortable win at Burnley to make it nine consecutive victories in all competitions. Goals from Viktor Gyokeres and Declan Rice sealed the win - their fifth in a row in the league - as Mikel Arteta's side moved seven points clear at the top, albeit having played a game more than some of their rivals. It was an impressive victory against a Burnley side that can often prove difficult to break down and had recorded back-to-back victories before facing the Gunners. But no side has scored more goals from set-pieces than Arsenal this season and it was from one that they took the lead, Gyokeres firing in from close range from Rice's corner. Burnley g...

Amorim: Mainoo needs more minutes Ahead of Manchester United’s game against Nottingham Forest this weekend, Ruben Amorim has spoken about the negative impact a lack of European football is having on the squad. Of course, Man Utd blew their route to the Champions League when losing to Tottenham Hotspur in last season’s Europa League final. And the ramifications of that, multiplied by the early exit from the League Cup, are that several players aren’t getting enough playing time. Speaking to the press, Amorim mentioned Kobbie Mainoo by name, but Joshua Zirkzee is another to pay the price for United’s lack of games. "We need to go to Europe because of everything. "Our club needs to be in Europe, it’s hard to have a very, very good squad. Imagine for me to have Kobbie Mainoo...

Wood is yet to feature since reuniting with his former Burnley boss and, despite hopes he could return against the Red Devils, the New Zealand international is set for another week on the sidelines. Although Wood's continued absence will do little to help Forest overturn a run of 461 minutes without a Premier League goal, Dyche offered hope that the six-foot-three striker could return at the City Ground early next month. As well as Wood, Dyche confirmed that several Forest players will play no role in Saturday's game, pointing out the club's growing injury woes. "Angus Gunn, who's not currently playing.

football is live: West Ham set asking price for Lucas Paqueta

Lucas Paqueta wants to leave West Ham in the January transfer window after the club’s shocking start to the season. The Hammers are 19th in the Premier League – four points from safety – after winning just one of their first nine games this season. West Ham’s dismal form cost Graham Potter his job at the London Stadium but results have not picked up under his successor Nuno Espirito Santo. The east London side drew 1-1 with Everton in Nuno’s first game in charge but have lost three games in a row since then scoring just one goal. West Ham face an uphill battle to avoid relegation from the Championship, especially as the three promoted clubs are currently all outside of the drop zone. To make matters worse for West Ham, who were winning European trophies under David Moyes jus...
