A look at the Premier League week 2 !

As promised we will do our best to totally keep it up with the Premier League too from this season ! So let's see what happened in the 2nd week.

One of the best result is definitely the victory of the Antonio Conte's Chelsea in the away fixture against Tottenham for 1-2 ! The Blues got the lead thanks to a great set piece by Alonso. The match has been pretty balanced but we frankly think that Chelsea deserved the 3 points in the end. Actually the Tottenham even leveled the match because of a very unfortunate own goal by Batshuayi at 82' but just when none was expecting it anymore here came the victory goal scored once again by Alonso that beat the goalkeeper with a precise shot in the opposite angle of his position for the final 1-2!
Very convincing was also the 0-4 made by Manchester United against Swansea city but the home team definitely had its chances but wasted them so the Mourinho's players had the time to completely kill the match thanks to its jewels. Goals made by Lukaku, Pogba, Martial and Bailly.
At this point you might know that the Leicester City is one of our favorite teams so we are happy they got 3 points in the rather easy home match against Brighton also thanks to a great match played by Marhez that even without scoring but still he put his foot in both goals actions. Super quick goal after 58 seconds by Okazaki and header by the new signing Maguire in the second half. well put 2-0.
We are understanding that the new surprise of the Premier League is called Huddersfield Town which brought home another 3 points this time against Newcastle. Match winner goal score by Aaron Mooy, 1-0 and supporters crazy all over the stadium.
It's really not a great moment for the coach Frank De Boer that seems to destroy every team he got on his hands but anyway the second consecutive Crystal Palace's defeat came against Liverpool and for only 1-0 thanks to a close range shot by Mane'. We feel like Liverpool still has to reach its best form but well until you get 3 points they really can't complain much.
Couple of away victories were the ones of W.B.A. that won 0-1 against Burnley thanks to a goal by Hal-Robson Kanu at 73' and the same player got sent off ten minutes later and he got in the pitch ten minutes before his goal, just to talk about curious numbers and facts. The other victory was made by Watford that got over Bournemouth for 0-2 thanks to Richarlison and Etienne Capoue, both scored in the last 20 minutes of the match, great perseverance.
Dramatic match between Southampton and West Ham finished 3-2 for the home team that won thanks to a penalty kick given in the last minute making the situation very hot amongst the supporters that made the stadium shaking when the ball got in at the 93'. The late goal was scored by Charlie Austin. The other goals were scored by the Italian Manolo Gabbiadini and Tadic ( on penalty kick again ). Despite the West Ham was left in 10 men since the 33' when Arnautovic got sent off they still managed to level the match with two goals scored by Chicharito but they weren't enough!
We close with the 1-1 draw between Manchester City and Everton. Rooney was almost going to give 3 points to his team but Sterling ruined everything at 82'. Wayne Rooney is well alive in England!
