The English Premier League opening weekend continued with two exciting matches on Sunday, August 17, 2014.
Liverpool proved they can still find the net despite the exit of last year's leading scorer Luis Suarez. Raheem Sterling and Daniel Sturridge each tallied in a 2-1 win over Southampton. Click here to read Richard Jolly's report from Anfield
In the other match, David Silva converted in the first half and then Sergio Aguero made it official in injury time as the reigning league champions rolled past Newcastle United 2-0.
The action continues Monday as Chelsea will visit Premier League newcomer Burnley at 11pm (UAE time).

Recipe
Garlicky shrimp in olive oil
Gambas Al Ajillo
Preparation time: 5 to 10 minutes
Cooking time: 5 minutes
Serves 4
Ingredients
180ml extra virgin olive oil; 4 to 5 large cloves of garlic, minced or pureed (or 3 to 4 garlic scapes, roughly chopped); 1 or 2 small hot red chillies, dried (or ¼ teaspoon dried red chilli flakes); 400g raw prawns, deveined, heads removed and tails left intact; a generous splash of sweet chilli vinegar; sea salt flakes for seasoning; a small handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
Method
▶ Heat the oil in a terracotta dish or frying pan. Once the oil is sizzling hot, add the garlic and chilli, stirring continuously for about 10 seconds until golden and aromatic.
▶ Add a splash of sweet chilli vinegar and as it vigorously simmers, releasing perfumed aromas, add the prawns and cook, stirring a few times.
▶ Once the prawns turn pink, after 1 or 2 minutes of cooking, remove from the heat and season with sea salt flakes.
▶ Once the prawns are cool enough to eat, scatter with parsley and serve with small forks or toothpicks as the perfect sharing starter. Finish off with crusty bread to soak up all that flavour-infused olive oil.
