The first week in December always sees the first set of midweek Premier League fixtures as the festive period starts.
With many teams still in European competition playing nine games over the festive period, points are at a premium.
Man City and Liverpool managed to rotate their squads and come through tough tests at Watford and Burnley respectively, while United and Arsenal played out a 2-2 draw.
You know the scores but what about all the moments you missed, on a goals galore two days of Premier League action?
Sane’s Chested Goal
Leroy Sane’s recent return to the starting line-up has reminded all why he was awarded PFA young player of the year last season.
The German made it three goals in as many games on Tuesday night by chesting in Riyadh Mahrez’s cross.
His awareness to see that he needed just the slightest of touches past Ben Foster was brilliant.
4/7 For Fabianski
Lukas Fabianski has faced his fair share of penalties in his Premier League career, so it’s a good thing he’s pretty good at saving them.
The West Ham stopper’s first half save from Joe Ralls’ attempt was his fourth save in his last seven.
Scare For City
Thanks to Riyadh Mahrez’s goal, the Premier League leaders looked comfortable at Vicarage Road as they went into the dying moments of the game.
But a late goal from Abdoulaye Doucouré put the jitters into City and Pep Guardiola brought on Aymeric Laporte to sure things up defensively.
Doucouré’s goal was just the seventh goal City have conceded all season.
Ederson No Look Pass
While 2-0 up City were comfortable all over the pitch, including goalkeeper Ederson who completed two ‘no-look’ passes to his defenders.
Mahrez Skill
Riyadh Mahrez looked like he was in his element on the right as Pep Guardiola left out Raheem Sterling and Sergio Aguero.
The Algerian terrorised Watford defender Jose Holebas in the first half and produced an outrageous piece of skill that saw Holebas yellow carded, purely because he had no option but to make the foul.
Duffy Headbutt
Brighton defender Shane Duffy has had a brilliant start to the season, but a moment of madness saw him see red in the M23 derby with Crystal Palace.
The Irishman was judged to have headbutted Palace defender Patrick Van Aanholt and will serve a three-match ban.
Fellaini Tries To Get Hair Back
You would think the newly trimmed Marouane Fellaini would be know that the pulling of hair is a foul.
The Manchester United midfielder was caught not just pulling but yanking Mattéo Guendouzi’s hair, maybe a case of jealousy?
Arsenal boss, Unai Emery responded:
“I think the best thing is that he cuts his hair before the next match, then the problem is finished,” Arsenal’s manager said. “Just as Fellaini did. I have not told him that to his face, though. I respect a lot the players; their hair and their hair colour.”
Record Breaking Night
The first midweek fixtures of the Premier League season produced a record breaking night as all 20 teams scored.
According to statisticians OptaJoe, it was the first Premier League matchday since November 27th-28th 2010 in which all 20 Premier League teams scored.
