That’s it, no more unbeaten teams in England this season. Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City lost 2:1 to Bournemouth this evening (Saturday) in the 10th round of the Premier League, and missed a golden opportunity to escape at the top. The Blues lost first place to Liverpool, who achieved a 2:1 win over Brighton and overtook City on the way to the top.
Bournemouth – Manchester City 1:2
The surprising host made it very difficult for the champions, who were stopped after three consecutive victories precisely on the day when Arsenal lost. As early as the ninth minute, Antoine Semnio scored to give the home side the lead as Pep Guardiola’s side dominated without question, but struggled to threaten and find the frame on their poor attacking day.
In the 64th minute, Avnielson continued Bournemouth’s masterful display of efficiency and scored their second against the stunned champions. In the 82nd minute, Gabardiol scored with a strike thanks to an assist from Ilkay Gundowan, but the points remained at home. A lot of food for thought for Pep, who lost for the second time in a row if you count the league cup, in a game in which he came up with a missing team against Tottenham.
Liverpool – Brighton 1:2
The Mighty Reds are the biggest gainers of the cycle after seeing their rivals to the top of the ladder. It wasn’t easy for Arena Slott’s team, but the hosts’ great start to the season continued and after the 2-2 draw against Arsenal in the previous round, Liverpool needed a home turnaround to secure the three points.
The Seagulls got on the scoreboard first when Danny Welbeck set up Freddy Kadioglu for the first in the 14th minute. Liverpool didn’t say desperate and responded with a quick turnaround, when Virgil van Dijk set up his countryman Cody Gakpo for a Dutch goal that tied the score (69), and Mohamed Salah scored a great goal in the 72nd minute on the way to the turnaround. For the Egyptian, this is his ninth goal of the season, along with seven assists.
Nottingham Forest – West Ham 0:3
Nuno Santo’s team appears to be the surprise of the season. Chris Wood with his eighth goal of the season opened the home celebration, Edson Albers was sent off even before the break and left the Hammers at a numerical disadvantage and in the second half Calum Hodson Odoi and Olofiaso Aina jumped the team at least temporarily to the third place in the table.
Ipswich – Leicester City 1:1
The newcomer already saw herself getting her first win of the season when in the 55th minute Leif Davies gave her the lead, but in the 77th minute Kelvin Phillips was sent off with a second yellow card, the host tried to keep the small 0:1, but deep in extra time Yaimi Vardy scored for Jordan Ayew and set up a split of points.
Southampton – Everton 0:1
Adam Armstrong’s goal in the 85th minute made the difference, giving the Saints their first league win of the season and at least temporarily they are not in last place in the table. The Topis looked good in the last period but this time they missed a lot and were stung towards the end.
Wolves – Crystal Palace 2:2
The distribution of points entertains Molinho between the two teams that are having a hard time in the struggles at the bottom and did not come out particularly encouraging. Trevo Shalova gave the eagles an advantage (60′), Jürgen Strand Larsen (67′) and Joao Gomes (72′) converted, but Mark Gohi equalized (77′) and made it 2:2 at the end of 90 minutes.
