  1. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:23 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Liverpool 3-1 Bournemouth

    On comes Wataru Endo for his Liverpool debut, to shore up midfield following the red.

    Fulham 0-1 Brentford

    That award seemed a bit harsh and the fact Fulham have lost their captain makes it even worse.

    No Ivan Toney to take this for Brentford.

    Wolves 1-4 Brighton

    Lots of pressing from Wolves at the moment. They have a massive task, but if they can get another back...

  4. RED CARD FOR FULHAMpublished at 16:22 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Fulham 0-1 Brentford

    Even worse for Fulham, Tim Ream is shown a second yellow card and he's out of here.

    I was just going to suggest that this is a golden chance for Bournemouth to get something here after that red card.

    But that's looking unlikely now!

    Dominik Szoboszlai's angled drive is palmed out by Neto but only as far as Diogo Jota, who finishes.

    The 10 men have a two-goal lead.

  6. PENALTY TO BRENTFORDpublished at 16:21 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Fulham 0-1 Brentford

    The referee points to the spot for a Brentford penalty kick. Tim Ream had his arms on Yoane Wissa, who goes down. Fulham aren't happy.

    Mac Allister has made a genuine attempt to play the ball. The all is bouncing. I don't think that is a red card.

    His studs are showing, he catches Christie, but he hasn't gone out to hurt the player.

  8. Postpublished at 16:21 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Another Mathias Jensen long throw causing problems and Yoane Wissa has a shot deflected wide.

  9. VAR

    Wolves 1-4 Brighton

    The goal stands and Wolves have the faintest glimmers of hope.

    Former England striker on Final Score

    Not a red for me. Downgrade it to a yellow.

    It is a high foot, there is no malice in there. Mac Allister has tried to go in side footed, not with a straight leg.

    Both had high feet, both went for the ball, yellow for me.

  11. VAR

    Video Assistant Refereepublished at 16:20 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Liverpool 2-1 Bournemouth

    VAR check the tackle but agree with the on-field decision.

    I mean, yes he did catch Christie on the follow through, but was it serious foul play?

    The officials clearly all think so.

  12. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:19 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Fulham 0-1 Brentford

    Brentford defender Rico Henry is shown a yellow card for time wasting.

  13. goal

    GOAL - Wolves 1-4 Brightonpublished at 16:19 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Hwang Hee-Chan (61 mins)

    One back.

    The changes pay off for Wolves as substitute Hwang Hee-Chan heads in from Pablo Sarabia's corner.

    This is being checked by VAR, however...

  14. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:18 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Wolves 0-4 Brighton

    James Milner and Danny Welbeck make way for João Pedro and Joël Veltman for Brighton.

  15. Postpublished at 16:18 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Fulham 0-1 Brentford

    Ethan Pinnock and Nathan Collins in defence have been outstanding so far for Brentford. Doing the simple things but doing them very well.

  16. Postpublished at 16:17 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Fulham 0-1 Brentford

    Fulham fans scream for a penalty - Christian Norgaard on Harry Wilson - but the referee says no.

  17. RED CARD FOR LIVERPOOLpublished at 16:17 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Liverpool 2-1 Bournemouth

    Wow! This has come completely out the blue! Alexis Mac Allister has been sent off!

    The Reds midfielder has gone in to tackle Ryan Christie and caught him on the shin. I don't think that's a red card, but the ref whipped it out very quickly.

    If VAR cannot be 100% correct, then we may as well go back to normal refereeing, because we are no better off. We’ve gone from complaining about the referee to complaining about VAR so where is the progress?

    I swear every time I do a stat about a team having no shots they have one before I've even finished. Fulham midfielder Harry Wilson has a pop from outside the box but it's down the throat of Mark Flekken.

  20. 'Brighton are showing their superior quality'published at 16:16 British Summer Time 19 August 2023

    Wolves 0-4 Brighton

    Dion Dublin
    Former England striker on Final Score

    We haven't seen the same Wolves side that we saw at Old Trafford last week, but maybe that is because Brighton are playing much better than their previous opponents did.

    Brighton are showing to be a better side.

    Solly March this time waits for the keeper to go down and it's a cultured finish into the bottom corner.
