Read on for a recap of how Saturday's action played out.

Recap

Huddersfield's first-ever goal in the Premier League came courtesy of Palace defender Joel Ward when he deflectedย Mathias Jorgensen's header in after 23 minutes, and their second came just three minutes later when Mounie headed home.

Mounie added a third for the Terriers in the second half, which was enough to lift them to the summit of the English top flight.

Match of the Day host Gary Lineker was pleased:

A chaotic game at Stamford Bridge saw Burnley capitalise on Gary Cahill's 14th-minute red card with three well-taken goals before half-time, as Stephen Ward struck a magnificent effort in between a volley and a header from Vokes.

Alvaro Morata's introduction lifted the Blues in the second half as he glanced in before nodding on for David Luiz, but Cesc Fabregas picked up a second booking to end his afternoon early.

ESPN FC's Liam Twomey is concerned for the Blues on the back of the result:

The one silver lining was Morata, per Squawka Football:

If there was one for Liverpool, it would be that Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah all scored.

The Reds twice came from behind asย Stefano Okaka andย Abdoulaye Doucoure both scored for Watford before Salah fired them ahead, but Britos scrambled home a controversial equaliser.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp felt it was offside, per BBC Sport's Neil Johnston:ย "It's obvious because the linesman is on the line. He needs to see it.ย I cannot change it. We would have had defensive areas we need to work on if we'd won 3-2. We were the better team, we should have won."

It took until the 70th minute for City to break the deadlock against Brighton, but when they did it was through a moment of outstanding quality as Sergio Aguero applied a finish to David Silva's slide-rule pass.ย 

Footballer Joey Barton was impressed:

It was 2-0 soon after when Lewis Dunk headed Fernandinho's cross into his own net.

Rooney's fairytale return to Goodison Park as an Everton player saw him make the difference when he headed homeย Dominic Calvert-Lewin's cross to finish off a lovely team move from the Toffees.

Meanwhile, Southampton failed to take their chances as they dominated Swansea City for much of their meeting at St Mary's, withย Dusan Tadic and Maya Yoshida guilty of missing clear-cut chances.
