In the last 15 minutes, the final whistle at turfmoor saw liverpool eight matches, adam wilde is there for us, Manchester City looked pretty good, didnt they . I pretty good, didnt they . Very pretty good, didnt they . , very impressive indeed, plenty of calls this afternoon. Some real crackers as Manchester City has the pleasure of inviting brighton. Plenty of goals this afternoon, and some real crackers as well. Manchester city, who had the pleasure of welcoming graham potters brighton to the etihad this afternoon. Before today, city hadnt been beaten in 17 league games, a tremendous run that, of course, took them to the premier league title last season. Brighton, for their part, had lost all four Previous Premier League games to city. It ended 4 0 to city, a very comfortable afternoon for them. Any hopes brighton might have had of keeping it tight for the opening stages were gone within 71 seconds. Just over a minute is all it took for this man, kevin de bruyne, to opening the scoring for pep guardiolas side. It all looked far too easy for the champions. They doubled their lead before half time, who else but sergio aguero. The kind of goal weve seen from him so many times before. Really, from that point, it was all over. Aguero, though, hadnt finished. A quite brilliant strike once again, into the top corner from the edge of the box. A fantastic goal. Things looking very grim for brighton, and it would only get worse. City in sparkling form, Bernardo Silva adding a fourth. So, city have scored 14 goals in their first four matches this campaign. One sour note for them, city lost french defender Aymeric Laporte to injury. He was carried off on a stretcher before being taken to hospital. Lets hear, then, from the managers. We scored early, but the Brighton Team what they have done, a few teams that we face here in this, more than three years, creates problems with the bowl. And they were clear what they wanted to do, and we had some minutes to adjust, take our chances, and i think it was the quality of the players that Manchester City has. From this perspective, very proud, the effort of the players. The attitude to try to do what we ask them to do was top will stop playing against a fantastic team, unbelievable players, and they punish you for moments, but in terms of our overall performance, yeah, very happy with them. So that was a three oclock kick off, basically sending a message to liverpool, and liverpool responded as well. Not too surprising, is it . The top two at the end of the day were the top two at the end of the season last season. Manchester city and liverpool, liverpool are the top of the table tonight after a victory this evening. 3 0. Here is lydia campbell. They already have legendary status at liverpool, after guiding them to a sixth european cop. But now he has done something that none have done. This was a record 13th consecutive flight two top flight victory for liverpool, and part of that success is going to this man, the player of the year. But Virgil Van Dyck was almost made to look like a fool inside two minutes, chris wood, one of the few people to get past in this season, but he couldnt apply the finish. U nfortu nately, but he couldnt apply the finish. Unfortunately, he could at the other end though, his deflection helping Trent Alexander arnold open the scoring. There was no such luck about liverpools seconded though. Coolly sliding home, only sergio has a more premier league goals than him in 2019. And records kept coming for liverpool. Roberto becoming the first brazilian to score 50 premier league goals. The team is the only side with a perfect start to the season. But if they are to stay ahead of Manchester City, they will surely need the records to keep coming. Lydia campbell, bbc news. So we have heard about the top two sides then, what about the rest . As you can see, sides then, what about the rest . As ou can see its sides then, what about the rest . As you can see, its a real tale of two have sent stamford bridge. Lets first talk about tammy abraham, remember he was left out of southgate england squad earlier in the week, perhaps he felt he had a point to prove, a great start for him and for chelsea, but they were pegged back by sheffield united, 2 2 at finish. Abraham opened the scoring, team header, easily saved, but a fumble from the goalkeeper, abraham, lashed in his first goal of the afternoon. Before the break, he had another, latching onto a loose ball and finishing with great confidence to put chelsea in control. But, and it isa is a big bite. Within seconds of the restarts, this man, callum robinson, sign for united in the summer, he was a record fee, and this was his first goalfor his was a record fee, and this was his first goal for his new side. Chris wilder side really making a game of it in the second half, and after plenty of chances, plenty of efforts, he finally, finally paid off. The frenchman on his debut, what a way to market. The equaliser in the 89th minutes, i think it will go down. Certainly celebrating it, reallyjubilant go down. Certainly celebrating it, really jubilant scenes for Chris Wilders site at full time there. The result in the championship season, even the league, one place about chelsea. One interesting thing to note lampards start at 11 was the youngest chelsea have named in the youngest chelsea have named in the premier league era. Average age of 24 years old, 158 days. They really well though have to learn how to close out this kind of encounter. It was under control, so it is our fault, because we gifted them a goal in the first minute of the second half. And then, it makes the game more difficult, so we gave them the feeling that they were back in it, some similar stories to some of the games we played. And they fought to the end, and they got the goal at the end. So yeah, we gave away a game that should have been very, very comfortable, and made it difficult, and we lost two points for that. We have celebrated, i have talked about the journey, and we are a part of league 130 years ago, so you come to a fantastic historic football club, and especially second going toe to toe with them. In my opinion, in my biased opinion, i do believe we deserve something from the game. So, lets take a look at the rest of those scores then. Well come back to united in a moment. Weve heard about chelseas draw. Palace got a much needed win against aston villa. Jordan ayew with the only goal there. The visitors were really incensed by a late disallowed goal for Henri Lansbury in added time. The referee having already blown to bookjack grealish for simulation in the build up. They were absolutely furious, but 1 o it finished. Leicester looked excellent as they beat bournemoth 3 1. Two goals from jamie vardy, the first, well worth staying up for match of the day for, a fantastic goal. Newcastle and watford finished 1 1. Thats watfords First Premier League point of the season, so some relief for them. Sebastien haller scored his third goal in two games for west ham as they beat norwich city 2 0 at the london stadium. And of course, liverpool winning the late game as we heard about a short time ago. One match we havent discussed yet is the early kick off. Ole gunnar solsjkaers Manchester United held to a 1 1 draw with southampton, they were delaighted with that result. Heres michael redford. Just three games into the premier league season, southhampton and Manchester United are still looking for a bit of rhythm. Southhamptons new moves are coming from an old face. He was sent on loan to spain last season, he nearly gave the home side the perfect start. United on the other hand, have a new favourite in their ranks. Danieljames, showing off his twinkle toes. Thats three goals in four games. Southhampton did draw level through an unlikely source, its been over a year since yannick joined the club. That was his first goal. It would be another first for one of his team mates, although not one to remember. A late challenge, a second yellow card, and an early end for kevin. United pushed for a winner, coming close, not once not twice, but thrice. Southhampton hung on. A really unbelievable performance, what it means in terms of mental strength, and the willingness to take this point. Really believing in what they are doing, i saw a very, very good committed team today. We shouldve won today. We created chances, we had pressure on them. We have a game where we wanted, after dans fantastic first strike. Spaces everywhere. Then we just got a bit careless in our finishing in our last pass, even in our build up play. And we encouraged southhampton to get back into the game. Both sides are still looking for that perfect performance. Michael redford, bbc news. There you go thats the story for the paper Manchester United. Quick look at the table then, no surprises about the top two. Liverpool overtaking city with that win in the late kick off. Leicester palace and west ham all up there as well, much perhaps to the surprise of some, i would guess. Down at the bottom, the first points of the season for watford. Around them, not much joy today for those down the bottom. That of course could all change though, the north london derby arsenal against tottenham tomorrow.

Wales are planning their world cup down to the last note. They have had singing lessons to help them with the anthem. Thats the Warren Gatland way. This is his final home match as wales head coach, but the first verse was set to an irish tempo. Thats Jacob Stockdale, with a new aerodynamic haircut. Ireland are hoping he will be their bullet train injapan. Once hes off, its nonstop until he reaches his destination. They were 15 3, up at the break, then scored a penalty try in the second half. Wales were failing their final audition, a day before their world cup squad is named. What a moment then for owen lane, taking his cue on debut, and impressing his boss, probably. Gatland said this week he doesnt care about rankings, but the locals do. And wales world number one spot was on the line. Reese continued the comeback charge, but their momentum ended there, while ireland may have found some atjust the right time. Patrick geary, bbc news.
