Premier League: Sound the “that man again” klaxon! Chelsea’s next £100m target Kaoru Mitoma scores what could prove to be another late winner for Brighton, this time with his head. That’s his fifth in seven for the Seagulls – what a signing he’s turning out to be.

GOAL! Wolves 3-0 Liverpool (Neves 71)

Premier League: Wolves pile the hurt on Liverpool, with Ruben Neves riffing, be-bopping and scatting all over their pain with their third goal. He receives a pass from Adama Traore after charging forward from midfield, takes a touch with his right foot and then fires past Alisson with his left.

Manchester United 2-0 Crystal Palace: Casemiro gets a straight red card for his part in the brouhaha, as outlined below. He’ll serve a three-match domestic ban.

Manchester United 2-0 Crystal Palace: Casemiro could be in trouble as VAR picks over the bones of that melee at Old Trafford. He grabbed Will Hughes around the neck with both hands and could be about to receive his marching orders.

Brentford 2-0 Southampton: New signings Paul Onuachu and Kamaldeen Sulemana are on for Southampton, who trail at the Gtech Community Stadium. Onuachu, signed from Genk, stands 6ft 7in in his socks. Get it launched!

Aston Villa 2-3 Leicester City: Early in the second half, Kelechi Iheanacho has hit the side-netting when he should have scored, spurning an opportunity to stretch Leciester lead against Villa.

Green Football Weekend: Various clubs, players and fans throughout the Premier League, WSL and EFL are raising awareness of and helping to tackle climate change by reducing their environmental impacts this weekend. With that in mind, here’s an email from Chris Redston from Rainsforest Trust UK.

“Rainforest Trust UK are a charity partner of the Green Football Weekend and they are inviting fans to pledge a small donation for every goal scored in the Premier League and Women’s Super League over the weekend,” he says. “All money raised will be used to protect threatened rainforest in the Brazilian Amazon. It only costs 75p to save half a football pitch of rainforest per goal scored - please click here to find out more.

“To date supporters have already made pledges that will protect 145 football pitches of rainforest for every goal scored, which will store 41,470 metric tonnes of carbon - the same as the annual emissions of 8,936 cars per goal.

“It would be great to get that figure up to 200 pitches per goal today. I’m actually a Wolves fan so hoping my team can contribute to the goals tally against Liverpool today!”

Wolves are certainly doing their bit.

GOAL! Aston Villa 2-1 Leicester City (Soutar 32og)

Premier League: Having scored one and just missed a sitter for Villa, Ollie Watkins plays a part in doubling their lead. From inside the box, his cross is deflected past Emiliano Martinez by Harry Soutar, whose first significant act for his new team is to unwittingly score against his own goalkeeper.
