Lukaku and Rashford gave United the win over Newcastle with a goal each in the second half, continuing a spectacular start for interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The Red Devils manager is making history at the club:

Coupled with Chelsea's scoreless draw against Southampton United are suddenly just six points back of fourth place and the final UEFA Champions League ticket, with plenty of football still to play.

Like Arsenal on Tuesday the Blues struggled on Wednesday, but where the Gunners found an answer to their issues and pulled away from Fulham, Chelsea could not.

Eden Hazard was completely isolated and the hosts resorted to long balls, leading to virtually no chances.

Per Squawka Football Maurizio Sarri's troops need a quick turnaround:

Away from the contenders for the top four, there was plenty of excitement to be found. Bournemouth and Watford went berserk in the first half, scoring six goals between them.

Sport Witness' Tom Coast loved it:

Troy Deeney had the first two for the visitors while Callum Wilson added to his tally for the hosts.

Burnley scored a key win over Huddersfield in the battle against relegation, with Ashley Barnes bagging the winner and both teams finishing the contest with 10 players.
