Manchester United 2 - 2 Sunderland Highlights

Manchester United 2 - 2 Sunderland Highlights

Steve Bruce’s Sunderland struck first at Old Trafford, Lee Cattermole fed a bread-and-butter ball into Darren Bent’s feet and, with O’Shea for company, the red-hot striker turned his man and struck a low shot into the near post. Early in the second half United levelled, the Black Cats failed to adequately clears their lines and O’Shea was able to swing a cross into the mixer where Dimitar Berbatov scored with a sublime scissor-kick. With most expecting United to go on to win the game, Sunderland took the lead again through Kenwyne Jones who headed home a Reid cross, beating Foster in the air. In injury-time, with Sunderland down to ten men after Richardson had received two yellow cards, Anton Ferdinand deflected in an Evra shot to deny the Mackems a famous victory.

Bolton Wanderers 2 - 2 Tottenham Hotspur Highlightgs

Spurs conceded early doors at the Reebok, from a corner visiting keeper Carlo Cudicini could only parry away a volley from Bolton’s South Korean Lee, and Ricardo Gardner was on hand to put away the rebound. Just after the half hour Spurs levelled, Palacios lifted a high ball into the box where Crouch’s cushioned header was lashed home by new-boy Nico Kranjcar. 20 minutes from time Bolton got their noses back in front as a delightful chipped cross from Tamir Cohen was converted by Kevin Davies at the back post. But within three minutes, and after Crouch had hit the bar, Spurs had levelled as Vedran Corluka directed a header back into the near post from a corner.

Burnley 2 - 1 Birmingham Highlights

After a goalless first half at Turf Moor, Birmingham keeper Joe Hart should have had no trouble handling a weak left-foot effort from Steven Fletcher but the keeper allowed it to bounce off him and into the net. The Clarets soon chalked up number two, Andre Bikey pretending he was Franz Beckenbauer by strolling up from defence to play a one-two with Fletcher into the box and producing a fabulous finish to score. Sebastian Larsson netted a 90th minute free-kick consolation for the Midlanders.

Wigan Athletic 3-1 Chelsea

Wigan Athletic 3-1 Chelsea

The Latics punished slack Chelsea defending on the quarter hour, a quick corner between Rodallega and N’Zogbia ended with Titus Bramble heading in Wigan’s opener. Chelsea needed just one second half minute to equalise as Malouda held up the ball up before crossing for Didier Drogba to score (terrible keeping from Kirkland). But then the drama happened, Hugo Rodallega was taken out by Cech in the box, the Chelsea keeper saw red, and Rodallega dusted himself to score from the spot. In injury time Paul Scharner slid in to finish after Maynor Figueroa squared across the six-yard box to sent the home fans ecstatic.

Liverpool 6-1 Hull City

Liverpool 6-1 Hull City

Hull looked devoid of confidence conceding early at Anfield, Riera slipping a ball into Fernando Torres who turned two Hull defenders before finding the far corner. But the Tigers fought back to level quickly, Srktel and Carragher once again failed to deal with a ball in the box and Geovanni volleyed in the equaliser. Just before the half hour a brilliant solo goal from El Nino, Torres collecting a Benayoun ball in the box and waltzing past a couple of weak challenges before applying the clinical finish. Two minutes in the second half Torres raced towards the Kop to calmly slot in his hat-trick goal. Steven Gerrard put the nail in Hull coffin seeing his over-hit cross sail in off the underside of the bar. A late brace from sub Ryan Babel (first and second) sealed the comfortable Liverpool rout.
