As Dan Walker would put it, that is an absolute thronker of a shot from Leroy Fer which Julian Speroni somehow keeps out. That was travelling at some pace.

"That was easily the best move of the second half for Manchester City. It was a very well-struck shot but a very good save from Tom Heaton to tip it wide."

Listen to full 90 minute commentary.

Tom Heaton had to be sharp there. The Burnley goalkeeper flings himself left to get glove on a low Samir Nasri shot and turn the ball behind.

Tom Sharpe:, external Do the referees have something against Villa at the moment? That's a terrible decision.

Manchester City are still slumbering.

Passes are being misplaced with worrying regularity and Burnley almost exploit their sloppiness.

Danny Ings control lets him down at just the wrong time as he attempts to collect Ashley Barnes pass and burst in on goal.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho on Sky Sports: "I can believe Southampton defended with everything they have - with organisation, spirit and solidarity of players and the effort they fought to get the point.

"My players tried to win, especially in the second half. I can't understand such a big penalty [when Cesc Fabregas fell under the challenge of Matt Targett]. Out of nothing West Ham manager Sam Allardyce starts speaking about Chelsea players diving, then another coach and another coach. The referee changes a penalty for a yellow card.

"Same happened with Diego Costa in the game against Burnley. That I can't understand. A point is a point against a difficult team. There are doubts and doubts - a penalty like that, I will leave with that. The reality is there are penalties and penalties - this one was a huge one. Match after match coaches are telling Chelsea players are diving. I will go to the referee and wish him a good year and tell him he will be ashamed."

"The huge roar from Southampton's fans at the final whistle told the tale - it was a tribute to the superb resilience, energy, discipline and organisation they showed in surviving Chelsea's second half pressure.

"As for Chelsea, manager Jose Mourinho will know they failed to work Southampton keeper Fraser Forster sufficiently for all their possession, but Chelsea can have real grounds for complaint after referee Antony Taylor turned down their penalty appeals when Cesc Fabregas was challenged by Matt Targett.

"It is a result that will be well received at Manchester City though."

"Tomkins gets to the byline and puts in a great cross. It takes a deflection off an Arsenal head on the way to goal but it is definitely Kouyate's goal. That is game on now."

Leicester have made a change up front. Leo Ulloa gives way with Chris Wood on in his place.

Where's that fusebox?

Half of the floodlight and the electric scoreboard have all gone on the blink at the KC Stadium. Steve Bruce and Nigel Pearson are both digging the mood lighting though and tell the fourth official that they are happy to continue.

Can West Ham claw themselves back into this one? There is hope for them now, as Cheikhou Kouyate heads home a scrappy goal from James Tomkins' cross. Game on.

A what-happened-next moment to forget for Crystal Palace winger Yannick Bolasie, who shanks a corner and sees it trundle out of play at the near post. One for Sue Barker and Co to chortle over next Christmas. Bolasie tries to make amends moments later, but rolls a 25-yard shot harmlessly wide.

Meanwhile, there's a close-up shot of a fan in the Loftus Road stand who appears to have spilled his half-time tea all down himself. Luckily, he can see the funny side.

Is Fabian Delph's reputation beginning to precede him?

The Aston Villa man snaps into a tackle on Jordi Gomez, catching the Spaniard on the ankle with his upturned studs.

It is late, it is definitely a yellow, but a red? Martin Atkinson though decides it a dismissal and the hosts are down to ten.

"If George Boyd touches it he is offside. But I'm not convinced that he did. At that point, City were outnumbered in the box four to three which is very unusual. Burnley are rewarded for it."

It's happening again to West Brom. They had the better of the first half, but they are now behind to Stoke. A visionary pass forward by Bojan picks out Erik Pieters on the left. The full-back delivers a low cross which Mame Diouf collects and turns past Ben Foster via Joleon Lescott's slight deflection. The Baggies just can't catch a break.

Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas on his yellow card for diving: "There was definitely contact, the referee didn't have the best game of his life and I don't think he will sleep that well tonight, he had an awful game."

City have sleepwalked into the second half, needlessly giving away a couple of corners and now a goal.

Danny Ings stands up Pablo Zabaleta, darts left and fires low across goal. George Boyd gambles, bursts into the centre, and gets a crucial touch to guide the ball past Joe Hart.

He looks like he is offside on further inspection but the flag stays down.

QPR are better in the second half and Leroy Fer lashes an unstoppable shot towards goal which goes just wide.
