Premier League results: Liverpool outclass Arsenal, Crystal Palace stun Manchester United, Chelsea secure first win
A ruthless Liverpool gave Arsenal a lesson in prolificacy as they secured a 3-1 win at Anfield on Saturday.
Mohamed Salah, with a penalty and a superbly-taken individual effort, made it three for the campaign after Joel Matip’s first league goal in 11 months broke the deadlock just before half-time, with substitute Lucas Torreira scoring a consolation five minutes from the end.
Having won all three of their games this season, Liverpool top the Premier League table, while a first defeat for Arsenal leaves them second.
Crystal Palace stunned Manchester United at Old Trafford to record their first victory over the Red Devils in the Premier League era.
Jordan Ayew opened the scoring for the visitors, and it seemed the Eagles would be making history when Marcus Rashford wasted the chance to equalise by smashing a penalty off the post.
But when Daniel James popped up in the dying stages to make it 1-1 with his second goal since his summer transfer to the Red Devils, it appeared United had rescued a point.
Patrick van Aanholt did not get the memo, however, as he broke into the United half and fired past David de Gea to secure Palace an excellent three points.
Chelsea won their first match of the season as Frank Lampard’s decision to trust in youth paid off against Norwich.
Tammy Abraham scored a brace with Mason Mount adding a goal of his own to down the Canaries 3-2 at Carrow Road.
West Ham’s 3-1 defeat of Watford made it three successive defeats for Javi Gracia’s side.
Sebastien Haller netted twice in the second half to fire the Hammers to victory after Andre Gray cancelled out Mark Noble’s early penalty.
