Tottenham set out for his fourth league win in a row shortly after the opening whistle. Son Hung-min, who finished in the top of the scoring table with the ninth goal, finished the run for the defense. The Spurs retreated into the defense during the rest of the match, which resulted in the goal of Aymeric Laport, which the referee did not recognize due to a hand game.
London team goalkeeper Hugu Lloris managed to keep zero even after the break, so Tottenham was able to hit the breaks. One of them ended exactly with his first goal in the Premier League, alternating Giovani Lo Celso, who was on the field at that time for 35 seconds. The goal was scored by Harry Kane, for whom it was the ninth assist of the season.

With the third win in a row, Chelsea stretched the series without a defeat to seven matches, the last time in the league she lost in the 2nd round of Liverpool. The visitors kept the pressure on to tie the game when, after 10 minutes, Federico Fernández broke through the center and found himself alone with the keeper. After the break, Tammy Abraham confirmed three points for Chelsea with the third goal of the season.
Édouard Mendy kept the net in the winners’ goal, having not cashed in seven of the nine matches he played for Chelsea since he arrived from Rennes in September.
Brighton won for the first time in six games. Danny Welbeck soon led him against the surprise of this season. The striker, who has already hit the jersey of five teams in the Premier League, scored his first goal after arriving from Watford in the summer.
The “Villans” equalized right after the break thanks to Ezri Konsa and pushed for a turn, but Solomon March secured three points for the opponent. The hectic conclusion brought a red card for the guest Tariq Lamptey and an intervention in the penalty area of Brighton, which examined the video referee, but the penalty was not kicked.
Manchester United could not push himself against the opponent from the descent zone for a long time, it was mainly due to the well-catching West Bromwich goalkeeper Sam Johnstone. The closest “Red Devils” got to the goal in the 56th minute, when Bruno Fernandes had the opportunity to kick the penalty, but Johnstone caught him. However, the video referee assessed that the goalkeeper was not standing on the line at the moment of the kick and the penalty was repeated. For the second time, Fernandes did not hesitate and with the sixth goal of the season he secured the position of the team’s sovereignly best scorer.
