Hello, it’s Jasper again, Junior Sports Reporter for the Havering Daily. Please read on to find out about the latest Premier League (and Champions League) results as well as details from the most recent Hornchurch FC match.

Sport Report

Hornchurch 3 – 2 Bath City

I didn’t attend the match this week, but Hornchurch secured another victory with goals from Henry Hearn, Charlie Ruff & Darren McQueen. The winner in this game came from a Penalty scored in the 90+7 minute!

Hornchurch has dropped to 2^nd in the league. They have the same points as top of the table Weston-Super-Mare, but Weston has a slightly better win record and goal difference.

Premier League round-up

Saturday:

Nottingham 0 – 3 Chelsea (UCL 5-1 win)

Another red card for the Blues, after Gusto got one too many yellow cards; however, they still won 3-0, away at The City Ground. After another disappointing loss and only 39 days at the club, Ange Postecoglou (Forest) was sacked.

Manchester City (UCL 2-0 win) 2 – 0 Everton

Haaland (City) scored two goals within 5 minutes; Grealish (Everton) couldn’t play due to the conditions of his loan move.

Burnley 2 – 0 Leeds United

Neither of these teams played in Europe, but you wouldn’t know they were both newly promoted. Both teams played well, with Burnley getting a deserved win.

Sunderland 2 – 0 Wolverhampton

Terrible, utterly terrible, Wolverhampton Wanderers, WOW! With a woeful performance, Sunderland win another one of the easy fixtures they’ve had, making up for last week.

Crystal Palace 3 – 3 Bournemouth

A game full of goals with Mateta (Palace) scoring a hat-trick, Kroupi (Bournemouth) scoring a brace, and an additional goal from Christie – what a game!

Brighton 2 – 1 Newcastle (UCL 3-0 win)

Brighton keep their fantastic record against Newcastle, with another goal against them in consecutive matches from Danny Welbeck. The Magpies did, however, pick up a comfortable win in the UCL against Benfica.

Fulham 0 – 1 Arsenal (UCL 4-0 win in the “Haramball” derby)

A scrappy Trossard goal gives Arsenal a win against their London rivals. Two other Arsenal goals didn’t count as Calafiori’s was ruled offside, and Saka’s penalty was overturned by VAR.

Tottenham (UCL 0-0) 1 – 2 Aston Villa

Villa wins despite a very early opener from Spurs. On form, Morgan Rogers scored an equaliser before E. Buendia secured a late winning goal.

Liverpool (UCL 1-5 win) 1 – 2 Manchester United

Liverpool lost embarrassingly despite a convincing performance in the UCL, after Isak and Gakpo missed some key chances.

West Ham 0 – 2 Brentford 

West Ham lost 2-0 to Brentford. A late first-half goal and a late second-half goal shows West Ham cannot be resilient in key moments throughout the game.

Thanks for reading, and wishing all the other kids who may be reading a happy half-term!
