Bournemouth did not pull punches on an already slumped Manchester United, dazing them with a 3-0 home defeat. Registering their first-ever win at Old Trafford, Bournemouth restricted the Red Devils at the 6th position on the table.

The Red Devils were embarrassed by Andoni Iraola's ever-improving Cherries just three days on from beating Chelsea with arguably their best performance of the season.

Star turn Dominic Solanke scored a smart fifth-minute opener and hit the post in an alarming first-half display by United that was followed by a complete capitulation after the break.

Liverpool vs. Crystal Palace
Mohamed Salah scored his 200th Liverpool goal as Jurgen Klopp’s team came from behind to beat 10-man Crystal Palace 2-1 in the Premier League. The Reds now sit at the top of the table.

But it was substitute Harvey Elliott who struck Liverpool’s winner with a long-range shot in the 91st minute at Selhurst Park to move the club to the top of the standings.

Liverpool now leads Arsenal by a point after the Gunners were beaten 1-0 by Aston Villa in the late kick-off.

Salah had evened the score with a deflected shot in the 76th. Palace had been reduced to 10 men just a minute earlier when Jordan Ayew was sent off.

The home team had taken the lead through Jean-Philippe Mateta’s penalty in the 57th after he had been fouled by Jarell Quansah.
