Bournemouth stuns Liverpool Liverpool

Liverpool were brought crashing back down to earth following last weekend’s 7-0 thrashing of Manchester United, when they were beaten 1-0 away to Bournemouth. Philip Billing’s finish at the far post after excellent work from Dango Ouattara was enough to give Bournemouth three vital points on Saturday after they had started the weekend at the bottom of the table. Liverpool controlled nearly 70 per cent of the ball, but the best chance of the game was a 70th-minute penalty that Mohamed Salah blasted high and wide, and some brave defending from Bournemouth did the rest.

Chelsea’s recovery continued at the expense of Leicester City, who slipped to their fourth consecutive defeat. Ben Chilwell’s volley put Chelsea 1-0 up against his former club, with Patson Daka equalizing in the 39th minute before Kai Havertz put Chelsea back ahead deep into first-half injury time. Leicester had chances in the second half, but Mateo Kovacic killed the game off with a 78th-minute volley. Harry Kane scored twice and Son Heung-min also got on the scoresheet, as Tottenham recovered from a bad week in which they were knocked out of the Champions League with a 3-1 win at home to Nottingham Forest. Joe Worrall netted an 81st-minute consolation for Forest, while the win strengthens Spurs’ grip on fourth place. Leeds United came back from a goal down twice to take a 2-2 draw at home to Brighton. Alexis Mac Allister and a Jack Harrison own goal twice put Brighton ahead, but they were pegged back by Patrick Bamford and Harrison, who
