    Man City 5-0 Norwich

    Norwich playmaker Todd Cantwell, who we have not mentioned all game, attempts to run clear but is eventually crowded out by City defenders.

    Aston Villa 2-0 Newcastle

    Axel Tuanzebe, on loan from Manchester United, comes on for Aston Villa in place of Douglas Luiz - it's his first appearance in the Premier League for the club, having been on loan at Villa Park when they were in the Championship.

    Leeds 2-2 Everton

    Patrick Bamford picks up the ball inside the box but can't find a route to goal. Inside the final five minutes at Elland Road... Leeds are doing most of the work in trying to find a winner.

  4. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:46 British Summer Time 21 August 2021

    Aston Villa 2-0 Newcastle

    That is Emiliano Buendia's last involvement. He makes way to give Jaden Philogene-Bidace a Premier League debut.

    Ben Bardsley: Before everyone writes off Norwich, their season won't be decided by the these opening two matches against two of the top 5 teams in the world. Judge them at Christmas, not now. Most PL teams would lose this opening pair of matches

  6. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:46 British Summer Time 21 August 2021

    Aston Villa 2-0 Newcastle

    Jacob Ramsey is an exciting prospect for Villa. He skips away from Fabian Schar and the Newcastle defender can only bring the youngster down. He won't be surprised to pick himself off the turf and see a yellow card being wafted in his direction.

    Emiliano Buendia follows him into the book following a tackle on Joe Willock. No need really when you're 2-0 up with five minutes to go...

    Does Pep Guardiola really need a number nine?

    We should never doubt this man but I think we will end up seeing Harry Kane there eventually.

    A chance for a sixth but Riyad Mahrez smacks his free-kick into the wall.

    Riyad Mahrez is a good foot onside, it's not really close. He just takes his time and now Daniel Farke has been shown a yellow card for arguing, not sure what there is to argue about there.

    5-0 is probably a deserved score, when you can bring on someone like Mahrez how painful is that for Norwich?

    Leeds 2-2 Everton

    This is like a boxing match at Elland Road, and now it's Everton on the ropes as Leeds push for a knockout blow. Raphinha whips in a dangerous corner but Dominic Calvert-Lewin is back to head clear for the Toffees. A right good tussle.

    Riyad Mahrez (84 mins)

    A five star showing from the champions.

    Sub Riyad Mahrez gets in on the act, timing his run to perfection to trap Ruben Dias' chip over the Norwich defence and the Algerian opens up his body and strokes in via the post.

    Aston Villa 2-0 Newcastle

    Danny Ings nods wide at the far post for the hosts, who seem buoyed by that penalty decision being overturned in their favour. Newcastle look pretty glum now, to be fair.

    Leeds 2-2 Everton

    Jermaine Beckford
    Ex-Everton striker on BBC Final Score

    It's Raphinha's third game against Everton and he's scored in each of them but I think this is the pick of the bunch.

    He's whipped it hard and low, he's got a crowd of players in front of him so Jordan Pickford had no chance of seeing it or getting to it.

    I don't think it's any short of what Leeds deserve.

    Everton have been ruthless in defence but Leeds' press has paid off.

    Aston VIlla 2-0 Newcastle

    Oh no! Newcastle's hopes disappear in the blink of a VAR call...

    Callum Wilson is ruled offside and the penalty turns into an Aston Villa free-kick.

    Emi Martinez complains that his yellow card should also be chalked off. It won't be.

    The way that City are playing just now you wouldn't be surprised if they get a few more goals.

    A word on Cole Palmer, he is a delight to watch - he's so rangy and tall. They all play in similar styles the way they come through the academy at City. He's finding little pockets of space, a bit like Kevin de Bruyne. At his young age he looks very comfortable at this level. He effortlessly picks up space and positions, we're only seeing little glimpses but what a lovely start he's had to his game.

    Norwich make a rare foray forward but Milos Rachica cannot find the target with his effort from out wide.

    Raphinha (73 mins)

    And Leeds are level. What a hit!

    The ball breaks to the edge of the box and Raphinha has time to pick his spot, curling a lovely left-footed effort into the far corner and Jordan Pickford cannot get anywhere near it.

    Lovely finish from the midfielder. Great game, this.

    Leeds 1-2 Everton

    That's better from Jack Harrison and Stuart Dallas, exchanging a neat one-two before the winger whips a low ball in. Tyler Roberts then almost catches Jordan Pickford out with a mishit cross towards the front post.
