Two injury-time goals secured Arsenal a 4-2 win over Leicester. The Londoners are now catching up with ManCity. Cole Palmer shone for Chelsea against Brighton (4:2) with four goals.


No winner in the duel between Swiss defenders Fabian Schär and Manuel Akanji: The game between Newcastle United and Manchester City ended 1-1. Josko Gvardiol gave the visitors the lead in the first half and Anthony Gordon equalized in the 58th minute. The 23-year-old Englishman converted the penalty he took himself. Schär, who retired from the national team after the European Championships, played through, as did Akanji, who most recently played as the Swiss captain.

After four wins in the opening game, it was the second consecutive draw for champions City. Last week the Citizens drew 2-2 against Arsenal. Meanwhile, the Londoners caught up with the league leaders from Manchester with a 4-2 win against Leicester. Leahdro Trossard made it 3-2 in the 94th minute. Kai Havertz then scored the final goal.

Chelsea’s Cole Palmer had a great day. The 22-year-old Englishman scored four goals between the 21st and 41st minutes and virtually single-handedly secured a 4-2 win against Brighton. It was the first defeat of the season for the team of 31-year-old coach Fabian Hürzeler, who has both a Swiss and a German passport.

Brentford’s fast starters struck again. For the third time in a row, the team from west London scored in the first minute of the game – a first in the Premier League. However, Brentford failed to win any of these three games. After defeats against Manchester City (1:2) and Tottenham (1:3), the result at home ended with a 1:1 draw against West Ham.
