The latest Premier League weekend saw a number of impressive individual performances, none more so than at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium where the hosts defeated Manchester City 2-0 on Saturday evening.
That match came after two other fixtures on Saturday, with Chelsea strolling to a 2-0 win at Newcastle United and Brighton & Hove Alibion claiming three precious points at Aston Villa.
Sunday started with Manchester United edging past West Bromwich Albion thanks to what has become a customary Bruno Fernandes penalty. Everton then got back to winning ways with a 3-2 victory at Fulham, before West Ham United consigned bottom club Sheffield United to another defeat.
Arsenal, reduced to 10 men for most of the second half, then somehow managed to escape Elland Road with a point after Leeds United hit the woodwork three times.
Sunday concluded with injury-hit Liverpool brushing aside Leicester City 3-0 as the champions made it a record 64 home matches unbeaten.
There are still two matches of the round left to play as Burnley host Crystal Palace on Monday night and Southampton travel to Wolves on Tuesday.

Islamophobia definition
A widely accepted definition was made by the All Party Parliamentary Group on British Muslims in 2019: “Islamophobia is rooted in racism and is a type of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness.” It further defines it as “inciting hatred or violence against Muslims”.

Day 5, Abu Dhabi Test: At a glance
Moment of the day When Dilruwan Perera dismissed Yasir Shah to end Pakistan’s limp resistance, the Sri Lankans charged around the field with the fevered delirium of a side not used to winning. Trouble was, they had not. The delivery was deemed a no ball. Sri Lanka had a nervy wait, but it was merely a stay of execution for the beleaguered hosts.
Stat of the day – 5 Pakistan have lost all 10 wickets on the fifth day of a Test five times since the start of 2016. It is an alarming departure for a side who had apparently erased regular collapses from their resume. “The only thing I can say, it’s not a mitigating excuse at all, but that’s a young batting line up, obviously trying to find their way,” said Mickey Arthur, Pakistan’s coach.
The verdict Test matches in the UAE are known for speeding up on the last two days, but this was extreme. The first two innings of this Test took 11 sessions to complete. The remaining two were done in less than four. The nature of Pakistan’s capitulation at the end showed just how difficult the transition is going to be in the post Misbah-ul-Haq era.
