Everton v Aston Villa, Newcastle v Wolves and more: Premier League – live | Premier LeagueKey events GOAL! Newcastle 3-1 Wolves (Bueno 79')Wolves get one back from a corner, Santiago Bueno bundling home and trotting back to the centre-circle, ball under his arm. GOAL! Leicester 0-2 Crystal Palace (Guehi 77')Game over at the King Power, thanks to a lovely free kick routine. Eze scoops the ball over the Leicester defence and Marc Guehi is there to smash it home with his left foot! Finish. GOAL! Newcastle 3-0 Wolves (Gordon 74')Isak turns provider with a cross for the unmarked Anthony Gordon to tap home – although VAR intervenes, with Isak potentially offside in the buildup. Nope, the green line appears, and the goal stands! A big upset to report in the Coupe de France, where fifth-tier Bourgoin Jallieu have beaten Lyon on penalties. Mon dieu! PSG are kicking off the second-half against Espaly, where it’s still 1-1. Everton are turning up the pressure, too, creating a crowd of bodies at a corner, before Branthwaite sees his close-range shot blocked. In the Championship, Blackburn lead Portsmouth on the hour mark – Makhtar Gueye the man to break the deadlock. Leicester hit the bar! Soumaré goes close with a strange shot that bounces down into the ground and loops up onto the bar, with Henderson watching on. Moments later, Vardy blasts wide from a near-impossible angle. Ever since Villa scored it’s been a scrappy affair at Goodison, with Everton increasingly irate about refereeing decisions. The key problem remains the same – they’re not scoring enough (or, in this instance, any) goals. Leicester have offered very little going forward since half-time and Van Nistelrooy has seen enough, sending on Patson Daka, Ollie Skipp and Kasey McAteer in a triple change. Wolves have had their moments against Newcastle, and Cunha fires over the bar from a tight angle after racing downfield on the break. Jakub Stolarczyk keeps Leicester in the game, denying Mitchell with a fine save. It’s half time at Ibrox, where Rangers still lead Aberdeen 1-0 – and at the Emirates, where Arsenal lead Spurs 2-1. More uproar at Goodison Park where, from an Everton corner, Calvert-Lewin and substitute Lindstrom are both levered off the ball by Villa defenders – but there’s nothing doing. The first incident looked more problematic, Tielemans wrapping an arm around DCL’s shoulder. GOAL! Newcastle 2-0 Wolves (Isak 57')And another! This one is definitely Isak’s goal, as the red-hot forward is played in by Bruno Guimaraes, helped by Wolves’ utterly ragged offside trap. He takes a touch and blasts the ball past Jose Sa! Palace and Mateta almost make it two, but the striker can’t stick a boot on an excellent low cross from Daniel Muñoz. In the Bundesliga, Sané has his second and Bayern lead Hoffenheim 4-0, while Stuttgart have pegged back Leipzig at home. A Gabriel special has Arsenal level against Spurs … and as I type, Leandro Trossard has fired the Gunners in front! Ange, mate. Tempers are fraying at Goodison Park, with Gueye booked for a heavy challenge before Onana stops an Everton break with an arm on the shoulder. The hosts think that warrants a second yellow, and they might have a case. Pickford is booked for dissent in the aftermath. GOAL! Leicester 0-1 Crystal Palace (Mateta 51')Palace take the lead! Leicester are caught napping in midfield and Doucoure threads a lovely pass through to Mateta, who nicks the ball around the keeper and tucks it into the empty net. Cunha has come on for Wolves and tests Dubravka with a snap shot at his near post. José Sá appears to be struggling with something after a brief jaunt upfield, but is carrying on for now. GOAL! Everton 0-1 Aston Villa (Watkins 51')Villa could be about to poop David Moyes’ party. This was a very straightforward goal, Morgan Rogers pouncing on a loose ball and playing in Ollie Watkins, who steers the ball past an out-of-position Pickford. In the Copa del Rey, Barcelona lead Betis 2-0 after half an hour; Gavi and Jules Koundé with the goals. In the Coupe de France, PSG went a goal down at fifth-tier Espaly – but Warren Zaire-Emery has just levelled for the Ligue 1 leaders. A lively start at Everton as Jacob Ramsey flashes a shot wide of goal, before Calvert-Lewin goes down under a challenge in the area, only to be waved back to his feet by the referee. Half-time in the Championship, where it’s Blackburn 0-0 Portsmouth. Sigh! In Serie A, it’s Inter 2-1 Bologna at the break. Peep!Back under way at Goodison and close to a restart at St James’ Park, where it looks like Matheus Cunha is coming on for Wolves. A goal at the Emirates … for Tottenham! Son Heung-min has given Ange’s lads the lead. Ben Fisher Some Aston Villa transfer news for you … Aston Villa are confident of signing Loic Bade from Sevilla. The 24-year-old defender, who received a France call-up in September but is yet to make his senior international debut, would bolster Unai Emery’s back line and represent another early-window boost. Villa stepped up their efforts to buy a centre-half after Pau Torres sustained a metatarsal injury, which is expected to sideline the Spaniard until March. Villa plan to offload Diego Carlos, who has interest from Turkish clubs, providing they can seal a deal for Bade. Jaden Philogene is also expected to depart after the signing of Donyell Malen from Borussia Dortmund this week. Meanwhile, Villa forward Louie Barry, prolific on loan at Stockport County during the first half of the season, is the subject of strong interest from Celtic. Championship clubs are also pursuing a deal for the 21-year-old, who could sign a new contract before departing on loan. At Ibrox, Rangers lead Aberdeen 1-0, Hamza Igamane netting the opener after 13 minutes. Half time: Leicester 0-0 Crystal PalaceJamie Vardy has gone closest in a game that is very much goalless. Half time: Newcastle 1-0 WolvesAt St James’ Park, Isak gets back to deny Hwang with a slightly risky shoulder charge in the area. At the other end, a Tonali shot pinballs beyond the post – and that’s half time, Isak’s deflected strike the difference. Half time: Everton 0-0 Aston VillaEveryone in the stadium thinks Jacob Ramsey has scored for Villa on the stroke of half-time, but his goalbound effort somehow ends up wide of the post. It’s goalless at the break. Everton are getting some joy by pressing the Villa back line, and they win the ball high up the pitch again here. It’s worked to Calvert-Lewin, who takes it down and flicks the ball beyond Martínez … but Kamara is on hand to clear off the line! Oof! Wolves have been second-best, but could easily have been level here as Larsen, unmarked in the area, drags his shot wide of the far post. Newcastle respond quickly, Joelinton sending an effort zipping over the bar. Palace have a free kick out wide which Eze whips in, but Leicester deal with it and Vardy almost breaks clear at the other end. Fancy a Serie A update? It’s Inter 1-1 Bologna after 25 minutes. Villa respond, with Kamara testing Pickford from the edge of the area. “After reading your post about Glasner I realised I couldn’t think what he looked like,” writes Nathan Fisher. “So I googled him and I swear I’ve never seen that man before. Is there some Nineteen Eighty-Four style sleight of hand going on here?” The best chance yet for Everton as Doucoure meets Mykolenko’s pass, but his toe-poked shot is straight at Martinez. It stays goalless here and at Leicester, where James Justin has sent a free kick high and wide of goal. Source link Posted: 2025-01-15 22:10:40 |
