Manchester United are two points clear at the top of the Premier League table after Chelsea were held to a 1-all draw at Newcastle yesterday. Andy Carroll gave the Magpies an early lead, before a Saloman Kalou goal just before half-time secured a point for the Londerers.
Aaron Lennon scored an injury time winner to give Tottenham a 2-1 victory over Liverpool also in the Premier League yesterday. Martin Skrtel put Liverpool ahead just before half-time, before he scored a second-half own-goal to put Spurs level. Jermaine Defoe missed a penalty, before Lennon’s winner deep into injury time.
Meanwhile
Liverpool were drawn away to bitter rivals Manchester United in the third round of the FA Cup last night. It’s the only all Premier League clash in the third round, while holders Chelsea will entertain Roy Keane’s Ipswich Town and Sven Goran Eriksson’s Leicester City take on his former club Manchester City.
