Premier League Table: 2017 Standings, Week 3 Fixtures After Week 2 Results

Christopher SimpsonAug 21, 2017

Kyle Walker and Morgan Schneiderlin were harshly sent off as Manchester City and Everton drew 1-1 at the Etihad Stadium on Monday, with Wayne Rooney grabbing his 200th Premier League goal.

City are up to fifth as a result, while Everton are eighth by virtue of their slightly inferior goal difference.

Manchester United sit top thanks to their second successive 4-0 win, this time against Swansea City, and they are joined on six points by Huddersfield Town and West Bromwich Albion after they ran out 1-0 winners over Newcastle United and Burnley, respectively.

Recap

After Rooney handed the Toffees a surprise lead with his landmark strike, Walker was quickly booked twice before half-time for a foul on Leighton Baines and for backing into Dominic Calvert-Lewin as they tussled under a high ball, the referee perhaps believing the latter to have been an elbow.

Raheem Sterling volleyed in a deserved equaliser for City late on as he eventually converted their pressure into a goal before Schneiderlin received his second yellow card for a tackle on Sergio Aguero.

James Robson of the Manchester Evening News felt it was deserved:

However, the midfielder won the ball cleanly, with relatively little contact made. The Liverpool Echo's Kristian Walsh believed it to be a fair challenge:

United's win over Swansea was as comfortable as the scoreline suggested, though they had to wait until late on to kill off the Welsh side having failed to build on Eric Bailly's 45th-minute opener until Romelu Lukaku, Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial all struck in the final 10 minutes.

Two well-taken goals from Marcos Alonso helped Chelsea claim victory over Tottenham, who failed to make their dominance pay.

Jese Rodriguez scored to give Stoke a 1-0 victory over Arsenal, who had an Alexandre Lacazette goal disallowed for offside.

Bleacher Report's James McNicholas gave his assessment of the Gunners' performance:

Hal Robson-Kanu gave West Brom their win over Burnley, but the striker also suffered the ignominy of a red card after catching Matt Lowton with an elbow.

Huddersfield's first-ever home match in the Premier League ended in victory over the Magpies thanks to Aaron Mooy, whose lovely finish separated the two sides in a fairly even game.
