For Brentford, the rescue duel with Newcastle did not go well from the beginning. Already in the 11th minute, Dasilva received a red card after Targett, and the weakened newcomer gradually came under a lot of pressure. He scored first with Joelinton’s head and at the end of the first half after a quick break by Willock, who hit the league for the second time in a row.

Shortly after the break came the long-awaited moment. Eriksen ran to the pitch with a long applause from both home and away fans, who started the competition for the first time since June and the opening Euro match against Finland, during which he collapsed and was revived on the pitch. The doctors then operated on a cardioverter-defibrillator, and Eriksen had to end his engagement at Inter Milan because he was not allowed to play with him in the Italian league.

Newcastle moved up to 14th place in the table, Brentford is back 15th.

Everton’s match with Manchester City was preceded by an emotional introduction, which brought home defender Mykolenko and his Ukrainian compatriot in the colors of City Zinchenko to tears. The home players ran to the field with the Ukrainian flags on their shoulders, while the guests ran with the flags printed on their jackets. The audience also expressed support for the fight against Russian aggression. In the end, none of the Ukrainian representatives intervened in the match.

Tottenham scored three times from 10 to 27 minutes. Kulusevski followed Doherty’s opening shot with a second goal after coming to England in January and Kane added a third goal with a quick volley. In addition, the English gunner prepared the tenth league goal of the season in the team’s best scorer in the 85th minute.

Leeds collected at least three goals for the fifth time in a row, which only happened to Sunderland in the history of the Premier League in 2005. In addition, coach Bielsy’s charges gained a single point in the last six matches and fell to 16th place.

Although Manchester United did not lose in the league eight times in a row, they again lost points in the fight for the top four and participation in the Champions League. Against Watford, the “Red Devils” had the best chance in the beginning, but Ronaldo only hit the bar from the turn. After the New Year, the Portuguese star still has only one hit from the ten competition duels.
