Match Report and Free Highlights: Manchester United Beat West Ham 3-1

By:Marcus-Bloxam Football Contributor Published on: December 5, 2020 6:36 pm Leave a Comment

LONDON — – Manchester United made it five wins from five away games in the English Premier League after securing a 3-1 victory at West Ham United to move into the Top 4 on Saturday.

The Hammers, cheered on by 2,000 fans, took the lead at London Stadium in the 38th minute when Tomas Soucek took advantage of some sloppy defending at the back post by Alex Telles to put the hosts 1-0 up in first-half.

However, Manchester United produced yet another spirited second-half comeback to defeat West Ham on the day they welcomed fans back in stands at the London Stadium.

Paul Pogba, Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford all penciled their names on the scoresheet for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer side, which grabbed its ninth consecutive away win to move into fourth place in the EPL standings.

Second half substitute Bruno Fernandes set up Pogba’s superb long-range equaliser which gave West Ham goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski no chance of stopping in the 65th minute. Greenwood then netted his first goal of the season with a clinical strike three minutes later.

After hitting the post with an earlier breakaway attempt, Rashford made no mistake on the second time of asking, sealing the victory by lifting the ball over Fabianski, fellowing a through pass on goal by fellow substitute Juan Mata.

Meanwhile, with his strike on Saturday, Mason Greenwood has now scored 20 goals in all competitions, since the start of last season. This is twice as many as any other teenager playing for a Premier League side, according to Opta Stats.

Saturday’s win saw Manchester United extending its club-record away winning run to nine games and moves into the Champions League spot, while West Ham slipped to seventh after the defeat.

STATS AND INFORMATION – Opta Stats

English Premier League Latest Scores On Dec. 28

By:JEFF-BRODRICKS Published on: December 28, 2015 3:59 pm Leave a Comment

LONDON, Sporting Alert – Here are the scores from the English Premier League games taking placing on a very busy Monday, Dec. 28. It was a seven-goal thriller between Everton and Stoke City. Who won it?

The action was packed at The Hawthorns between West Bromwich and Newcastle with Karl Darlow, in his English Premier League debut staying busy for The Magpies.

James Morrison, Stephane Sessegnon and Victor Anichebe were all lively in the first half for West Bromwich, but there were no goals to talk about until the 78th minute when former Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher got the breakthrough — heading home a cross from Claudio Yacob.

Anichebe had a great chance to double the lead for West Brom in the 82nd minute but Darlow pulled off a good save to keep the scoreline at 1-0.

EVERTON 3, STOKE CITY 4

At Goodison Park, Xherdan Shaqiri netted his first goal in the EPL for Stoke City, finishing off a nice move in the 17th minute that also involved Bojan and Marko Arnautovic, who played him open to side-foot home.

Shaqiri added a brilliant second for the Potters in the 45 minute when he fired over the head of Tim Howard and into the far corner of the goal. His sublime finish is certainly the best goal I have seen so far this season, and it is a candidate, right now, for goal of the year.

However, it was Arnautovic, who settled things from the penalty spot after he won and took the spot kick one minute into stoppage time as Stoke City won the game 4-3.

Everton had grabbed an equaliser in the 22nd minute when James McCarthy played a pass to Romelu Lukaku inside the box for the Belgian striker to hold off his man, turned and then fired past Jack Butland for his seventh goal in seven games in the Premier League.

And it was Lukaku again who scored for Everton to make it 2-2 — taking down a pass from Tom Cleverley brilliantly on his chest, before slotting home low into the corner of the goal in the 64th minute of play for his 15th goal of the season.

Ross Barkley then delivered a sitter for Gerard Deulofeu to tap home from point-blank range in the 71st minute to give Everton a 3-2 lead.

Stoke City pushed-and-pushed and came up with another goal with substitute Joselu blasting home past Howard to make it 3-3 in the 71st minute before Arnautovic scored the winning goal.

WATFORD 1, TOTTENHAM 2

Tottenham grabbed the lead over Watford in the 17th minute when Erik Lamela picked up a pass in midfield and easily guided home past the goalkeeper after breaking away at goal on a one-on-one run.

But the red-hot striker Odion Ighalo muscled his way past his marker, Eric Dier, in the box to score his 14th goal of the season and drew Watford level at 1-1 in the 41st minute.

Tottenham collected all three points, though, finding a late winner in the 89th minute through Heung-Min Son, who delicately guide home a cross past the keeper.

Nathan Ake was sent off for Watford in the 63rd minute.

NORWICH 2, ASTON VILLA 0

Jonny Howson delivered a super finish to give Norwich City the lead in the 24th minute over Aston Villa after he volleyed home under Brad Guzan, following a chipped cross by Nathan Redmond which came off the Dieumerci Mbokani and was poorly cleared by Ciaran Clark.

Mbokani made it 2-0 in the 87th minute — heading home a teasing cross from Wes Hoolahan from the left-hand side.

Liverpool, at the same time, will be looking to rebound from the shocking 3-0 defeat suffered at the hands of Watford in the last outing.

Manchester United will take on Stoke City on the road, desperately needing a victory to ease some pressure off manager Louis van Gaal, who could lose his job if his team keeps failing to win football games.

Elsewhere on Saturday’s Boxing Day fixtures, Manchester City will need to respond quickly against Sunderland after being humbled by Arsenal. Sergio Aguero is expected to start again, despite not looking good in the defeat against the Gunners, while Raheem Sterling is set to come back in for Fabian Delph, who was very disappointing when starting the last time out.

EPL Halftime Scores on Dec 12 WK 16

By:JAMES ANDERSON Published on: December 12, 2015 3:58 pm Leave a Comment

LONDON, Sporting Alert – EPL halftime scores from the games already taking place in Week 16 on Saturday, December 12.

At the Etihad Stadium: Manchester City are leading Swansea City 1-0 at halftime after former Swan, Wilfried Bony scored against his old club in the 26th minute.

Jesus Navas delivered a corner kick, which Bony met with his head to break the deadlock, this after Ashley Williams failed to keep track of his man inside the box.

At the Stadium of Light: Odion Ighalo netted an early goal to give Watford the lead against Sunderland, although it looks as though Blackcats defender Sebastian Coates may have gotten the final touch before the ball crossed the line.

Ighalo fended off a challenge from Coates to guide home a cross from Allan Nyom at the near post from close range, but the Sunderland defender may have had the final touch.

At Selhurst Park: Yohan Cabaye scored in the 38th minute to give Crystal Palace a 1-0 lead at halftime in their EPL clash with Southampton.

Busy winger Yannick Bolasie found Cabaye inside the box and the midfielder easily tap home from six yards.

EARLIER EPL SCORES

Earlier in the EPL morning kick-off, Everton and Norwich City finished 1-1 at Carrow Road.

In-form Belgium striker Romelu Lukaku added another goal to his tally this season after scoring the opener for Everton in the 15th minute when he head home from the back post off a cross played in by Gerard Deulofeu.

However, Norwich grabbed an equaliser through Wes Hoolahan, who slid the ball home from close range with Ross Barkley desperately trying to clear off the line.

Everton boss Roberto Martinez said: “We are very, very disappointed because our first half performance was as good an away performance as you’ll see.

“Like Monday, our performance deserved more. We need to make sure we learn from this period.

“We feel unfortunate not to have three points. We need to develop how our ruthless edge.

“We need to make sure we defend our box properly to back up all the attacking flair at the other end.”

EPL Scores and Results For Week 13 On Nov. 21

By:Marcus-Bloxam Football Contributor Published on: November 21, 2015 3:43 pm Leave a Comment

LONDON, Sporting Alert – EPL scores and results in Week 13 on Saturday, November 21. Manchester United got the ball rolling early.

Manchester United beat Watford 2-1 to go second of the EPL table standings, despite not being at their best and playing without several key players, including captain Wayne Rooney, strike partner Anthony Martial and midfielder Michael Carrick.

Memphis Depay celebrated his return to the starting team with a golden moment after the Dutchman opened the scoring for Manchester United early in the contest.

Depay, who had been dropped for his poor form, put the visitors ahead in the 11th minute with a nice finish, following a wonderful cross by Ander Herrera.

Herrera put a teasing ball into the box and Depay timed his moment perfectly to split his markers and side-footed home into the top left corner of the goal.

Manchester United dominated the ball possession, but failed to make good use of it which gave Watford a life-line.

Three minutes before regulation time Troy Deeney gave the home side some hope of grabbing a point when he put away a penalty kick, following a foul by substitute Marcos Rojo inside the box on Odion Ighalo.

However, the Red Devils restored their lead deep into stoppage time when Bastian Schweinsteiger saw his effort from a tight angle turned in by Deeney as he tried to clear the shot.

The win takes Manchester United to 27 points.

The full EPL schedule for Week 13 is below. We will update this page once all the scores and results are in at the end of the games.

Premier League Fixtures For Week 13: Nov 21-23

By:JEFF-BRODRICKS Published on: November 20, 2015 4:34 pm Leave a Comment

LONDON, Sporting Alert – English Premier League fixtures, live TV channels and broadcasting streaming networks for the list of matches taking place in Week 13.

The action gets underway with an early kick-off, which will see Watford playing hosts to Manchester United at Vicarage Road.

The Red Devils, who are fourth in the Premier League standings, will be without six players, including captain and leading striker Wayne Rooney for this clash.

Manager Louis van Gaal confirmed that Rooney, Anthony Martial, Michael Carrick, Marouane Fellaini are all injured or ill, while Antonio Valencia and Luke Shaw continues to recover from surgeries.

“I think that everybody knows Michael Carrick and Anthony Martial are injured, but also injured is Fellaini,” van Gaal said at his press conference.

“That’s a surprise because I thought he was recovered after the international break, but still he is injured. And that’s a big blow because Rooney is ill, so we have a big problem, I think.”

After 12 games so far this season, Manchester United sit behind Manchester City, Arsenal and Leicester City in the EPL standings with 24 points, while Watford sit at 11th place on 16 points.

The big clash of the weekend, though, will come from the Etihad Stadium where leaders Manchester City will take on Liverpool.

The Citizens could have striker Sergio Aguero back from injury, but playmaker David Silva remains on the sidelines with an ankle problem.

“Sergio [Aguero] is fit – he’s ready to come back,” City boss Manuel Pellegrini told reporters at his pre-match press conference on Friday.

“David [Silva] continues with some small sprain in his ankle so it’s a risk for him to play. Unfortunately also, Samir Nasri is injured.

“Wilfried Bony and Vincent Kompany are also injured.

“One of the merits of this team is not just to depend on one player but of course our team is better with Sergio.”

Meanwhile, Liverpool could also have striker Daniel Sturridge back against Manchester City after he returned to full training this week.

The England international had been out with a knee injury that forced him to miss the Reds’ last seven games, but could feature against his former club.

Second-place Arsenal, in the meantime, will look the keep the pressure on Manchester City with a win at West Bromwich Albion.

Elsewhere, Chelsea host Norwich, Everton and Aston Villa will do battle, Newcastle will look to stop Leicester City good form, while Southampton host Stoke City at St. James’ Park.

Chelsea v Manchester City Team News and Scores

By:JAMES ANDERSON Published on: January 31, 2015 11:15 am Leave a Comment

LONDON (Sporting Alert) — Manchester City and Chelsea meet in a top of the table English Premier League clash at Stamford Bridge and both managers enter the game without several key players.

Chelsea v Manchester City Team News and Scores Follow Live

For leaders Chelsea and manager Jose Mourinho, there is no leading goalscorer Diego Costa, who is out suspended, while top playmaker and leading assister Cesc Fabregas is also out because of a hamstring injury.

So Mourinho has decided to call on Loic Remy to lead the attack with club icon Didier Drogba, who was tipped to start the game, selected to the bench.

Eden Hazard, Oscar and Willian will all play vital support to Remy, with defender Kurt Zouma keeping his place in back four after impressing the last time out.

Defender Felipe Luis, who limped off the field in the last game, is also out because of an injury, but Branislav Ivanovic will start in back.

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini is without the likes of Yaya Toure and Wilfried Bony, who are both on international duties with Ivory Coast in the Africa Cup of Nations.

Former Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard has recovered from a knock, but starts on the bench, while speedy midfielder Jesus Navas is fit to take his place on the wing.

Chelsea enters Saturday’s game five points ahead of Manchester City in the English Premier League standings, but the defending champions are confident about closing that gap with a victory on the road.

“We are going to try to continue playing how we play every week and hopefully we will take victory,” Man City boss Manuel Pellegrini said in his interview before the game.

“It will be three very important points but there is still 45 to play for after today so it might not be the difference.”

Chelsea comes into the matchup with a 100% home record in the league after winning 10-out-of-10 starts.

Manchester City Goes Second With Win At Saints

By:JEFF-BRODRICKS Published on: November 30, 2014 9:39 am Leave a Comment

SOUTHAMPTON (Sporting Alert) — Yaya Toure, Frank Lampard and Gael Clichy scored second half goals to guide 10-man Manchester City to a 2-0 win over Southampton in the English Premier League on Sunday.

#459742940 / gettyimages.com

Manchester City defender Eliaquim Mangala was sent off after picking up a second yellow card for a foul on Shane Long in the 74th minute — trying to recover a ball that Toure gave away in his own half.

However, that didn’t halt Manuel Pellegrini’s side, which went on to score two more goals after going down a player at St Mary’s.

Toure put the visitors ahead in the 51st minute when the midfielder fired home a slightly deflected shot off Toby Alderweireld after picking up a Sergio Aguero pull back pass.

Lampard double the lead six-minutes after Mangala’s red card when he collected a pass from James Milner and struck a low and hard shot from the edge of the area past Southampton goalkeeper Fraser Forster in the 80th minute.

Full-back Clichy sealed the three points for the defending champions two minutes from time after he blasted home from seven-yards.

“I am very pleased,” Man City boss Manuel Pellegrini told Sky Sports after the game. “We beat a very good team. They were second in the table and deserved that position.

“We played a very good game it was important to have a clean sheet again, they had just one chance in the 90 minutes and that is important for the trust in our team, and to score three goals against the best defence is also very important.”

“We all look at tables during the week, and we are disappointed with where we are for a club like City, but we have to keep winning, keep moving forwards and go game by game,” former Chelsea midfielder Lampard said on Sky Sports.

Manchester City finished the contest with nine-man after captain Vincent Kompany limped off with an injury.

Pellegrini’s side now moved to second place on 27 points with the win and is now six points behind leaders Chelsea, while Southampton (26pts), who had only conceded three goals in the league so far this season and one in their last eight games, dropped to third with more big games to come.

“We know in three days we have to play Arsenal away. There is no time to be disappointed and that you have to learn about the mistakes,” Southampton manager Ronald Koeman told Sky Sports.

“If you like to beat these big teams you have to play better. That is what I have said to the players.

“I’m disappointed. It (our performance) was not good enough today and we have to realise that. The difference was the quality.”

Manchester City finished with 15 shots with six of those on target for their three goals, while Southampton had 13 shots with Joe Hart making four saves.

A total 23 combined fouls were committed in the game with 13 going to City and 10 to the Saints.

Crystal Palace hand Liverpool 3-1 Defeat in EPL

By:JAMES ANDERSON Published on: November 23, 2014 9:40 am Leave a Comment

LONDON (Sporting Alert) — Second half goals from Joe Ledley and Mile Jedinak helped Crystal Palace rallied from being down 1-0 to snatched a famous 3-1 victory over Liverpool in the English Premier League at Selhurst Park on Sunday.

#459455184 / gettyimages.com

Rickie Lambert, getting the starting place to lead the attack in the absence of Mario Balotelli, who is sidelined with a groin injury, made an immediate impact when he gave Liverpool the lead in the second-minute of play.

The England forward picked up a pass down the middle from Adam Lallana and after getting past Martin Kelly, the former Southampton frontman guided the ball under Julian Speroni in the Crystal Palace goal.

Liverpool continued to dominate in the early minutes and looked strong favourites to extend the lead.

However, it was Crystal Palace who scored the rest of the goals in the contest.

Gayle found the equalizer for the home side when he finished from close range in the 17th minute after Yannick Bolasie saw his shot rocketed off the post and the teams went into the break locked at 1-1.

Following the interval, Bolasie, who was the best player on the pitch today for Crystal Palace, was busy again, and after moving over to the right side, picked out the travelling Joe Ledley, who fired home past Simon Mignolet for a 2-1 lead in the 78 minute.

“Credit to the boys for the win today,” Match of the Match Bolasie told Sky Sports.

Three minutes later, Gayle won a free-kick and captain Mile Jedinak drove home a cracking take from the resulting set-piece to give his team the 3-1 lead and the victory.

“I just felt something and luckily it (the free-kick) went,” Jedinak told Sky Sports. “I am just grateful that we got the win today.”

The Eagles were grabbing their first win since September and the second at home this season.

Liverpool, meanwhile, were suffering their fourth defeat in a row and the their third straight EPL defeat. Brendan Rodgers’ side has won just two of the last nine games in the league and the team is off to the worst start in the English Premier League for 22 years.

With the defeat, the Reds dropped to 12th in the EPL table standings, while Crystal Palace moved out of the bottom three to 15th.
