00:00:01Oh, look at that!

00:00:03Absolutely phenomenal!

00:00:05Rudy!

00:00:08Welcome to Match of the Day.

00:00:30Well, it may be dry January for some, but our cup overfloweth on Match of the Day tonight.

00:00:55Six games from a brizzy Premier League Sunday,

00:00:58as well as December's Goal of the Month and all the goals from yesterday.

00:01:01And joining me, Shea Given,

00:01:03and making his Match of the Day debut, Gary O'Neill,

00:01:05who scored twice on his Premier League debut,

00:01:07so we are hoping for a similar performance tonight.

00:01:09Yeah, it went all downhill from there, but it was a good start.

00:01:12No pressure, no pressure.

00:01:13A win for Arsenal yesterday opened up a seven-point lead at the top of the table.

00:01:17Manchester City were looking to reduce that gap against managerless Chelsea,

00:01:21who parted company with Enzo Mareska on New Year's Day.

00:01:24Steve Wilson was at the Etihad.

00:01:28In his long managerial career in three countries,

00:01:31Pep Guardiola has never gone successive seasons without winning a league title.

00:01:36That record is under threat.

00:01:38They sit seven points behind Arsenal.

00:01:40It's eight seasons since Chelsea were champions,

00:01:43in which time they've had six full-time managers.

00:01:46Another is incoming.

00:01:48City make three changes to the XI, which drew at Sunderland on New Year's Day.

00:01:53In come Guardiola, Rodri and Reinders for Ake, Nico Gonzalez and Savinho.

00:01:59Callum McFarlane's time in charge of Chelsea will be short,

00:02:03but he makes five changes to the draw with Bournemouth.

00:02:06Caicedo is suspended again.

00:02:08Sanchez injured.

00:02:09Fofana ill.

00:02:10In come Jürgensen.

00:02:11Badia Shield.

00:02:12James.

00:02:13Pedro Neto.

00:02:14Andrao Pedro.

00:02:17Chelsea have lost eight of their last ten games in this stadium,

00:02:21in all competitions.

00:02:23And I don't think many people would favour them here today.

00:02:28Estevão for Chelsea finds Enzo Fernandes.

00:02:31Pedro Neto is on.

00:02:33Here he is.

00:02:37Mathias Nunez ahead of him.

00:02:39Good ball in that, and a chance for Estevão.

00:02:42It's blocked really well by Guardiola.

00:02:46That's the best chance of the game so far, and it goes Chelsea's way.

00:02:50And now Manchester City have the situation under control,

00:02:54and that's a great ball from Mathias Nunez.

00:02:57What a pass that is.

00:02:58Erling Haaland arriving.

00:03:00Phil Foden arriving.

00:03:01Here's Foden.

00:03:03Brilliantly done!

00:03:07Well, this would have been a sensational counter-attacking goal.

00:03:10Great awareness by Foden.

00:03:15Well, they've done really well, Chelsea.

00:03:16They've defended sturdily.

00:03:23Bernardo Silva trying to twist Gusto.

00:03:27And he's succeeded in doing so, and he gets the shot away.

00:03:32Well, great work in a very small area from Bernardo Silva.

00:03:37Manages to work that bit of space quite beautifully.

00:03:41Gets a bit of curl, but not enough dip.

00:03:43Not enough dip.

00:03:50Cherokee's header.

00:03:51Rodri.

00:03:52Foden.

00:03:53Haaland.

00:03:55Deflected!

00:03:56And really well saved by Jürgensen.

00:03:58That big deflection could well have looped over the top of the Chelsea keeper, but he's adjusted here to make a very good save.

00:04:08Philip Jürgensen.

00:04:09Heavy toucher match in Pong, but Rhys James is there.

00:04:24He's only held it up.

00:04:25Rodri.

00:04:26And Erling Haaland!

00:04:28Oh!

00:04:29Goodness me!

00:04:30You don't get any closer than that.

00:04:34Chelsea get a throw in.

00:04:38Chelsea get a throw in.

00:04:42And the post gets a rattling from Haaland.

00:04:46Oh, brilliant really.

00:04:48Very unlucky.

00:04:50His next goal will be his 150th for the club.

00:04:54It won't be long in coming, that's for sure.

00:04:56Chelsea have given the ball away.

00:05:06And Cherokee exchanges the touch with Rodri.

00:05:11Badia Shields touch.

00:05:14Reinders!

00:05:19Great finish.

00:05:22That is a pretty devastating finish from Tijani Reinders.

00:05:27And Manchester City break the deadlock.

00:05:30With four minutes of the first half remaining.

00:05:33Well, this really is a splendid goal.

00:05:36Haaland the threat.

00:05:37Badia Shields kept it from him, but played it straight into Reinders.

00:05:42A little flick off the Chelsea defender as it goes in.

00:05:47Reinders hits it beautifully.

00:05:50Might just be a touch off the toe of Badia Shield.

00:05:53But it flew into the roof of the net.

00:05:56And Manchester City lead by a goal to nil.

00:06:02O'Reilly's cushioned header down.

00:06:04Gusto's nicked it away from Rodri.

00:06:06Well won back by Guardiol.

00:06:08Now Rodri.

00:06:09And Cole Palmer.

00:06:11Guardiol is down.

00:06:12Enzo Fernandes to Palmer's left.

00:06:13And he plays him in.

00:06:14Enzo Fernandes.

00:06:15Lovely little pirouette.

00:06:16And Pedro Neto has missed it.

00:06:17With the goal gaping.

00:06:18And it really should be one each.

00:06:19Well, Guardiol was on the ground throughout that whole Chelsea attack.

00:06:24Which should have resulted in an equalising goal.

00:06:27Enzo Fernandes did well here.

00:06:28Enzo Fernandes did well here.

00:06:29And Pedro Neto simply has to get that on target.

00:06:34Enzo Fernandes got a boot in.

00:06:35But Bernardo Silva would not be denied.

00:06:36Erling Haaland here.

00:06:37Great pace.

00:06:38Tearing away from Canova.

00:06:39Brilliant run, Gablon.

00:06:40Good block.

00:06:41And it's over.

00:06:42It's over.

00:06:43It's over.

00:06:44And it's over.

00:06:45And it has resulted in an equalising goal.

00:06:46Enzo Fernandes did well here.

00:06:47And Pedro Neto simply has to get that on target.

00:06:53Enzo Fernandes got a boot in.

00:06:57But Bernardo Silva would not be denied.

00:07:00Erling Haaland here.

00:07:01Great pace.

00:07:02Tearing away from Canova.

00:07:04Brilliant run, Gablon.

00:07:05Good block, Haaland still, O'Reilly has failed to keep the ball in play, I'll talk about

00:07:20explosive here, Erling Haaland collecting the ball a couple of metres inside his own

00:07:26half and just driving on with enormous threat, good block by Badia Schiel, Gianluigi Donnarumma

00:07:37forward to Erling Haaland, beautifully cushioned, Cherki has got the pace to get away from Santos,

00:07:43Bernardo Silva's there, brilliant recovery from Harto, well that's outstanding, great flick

00:07:51here from Erling Haaland, good pace by Cherki, too much for Andres Santos, look how much

00:07:57ground Jor-El Harto made up.

00:08:07Dilap and Cole Palmer and Enzo Fernandes getting forward, here's Jor-El Harto.

00:08:13And Dilap, good turn, tight angled, Donnarumma save, and those nagging doubts about these

00:08:26three points from Manchester City continue.

00:08:28Chelsea have arguably been the more dangerous side in the second half, well snubbered by the

00:08:37Italian. Certainly some anxiety around the Etihad right now as Enzo Fernandes finds Pedro Neto and Jor-El

00:08:51Harto. Harto's cross missed by Cole Palmer and Dilap couldn't get anything really meaningful on it.

00:08:59That was a real opportunity for Cole Palmer, Chelsea have taken only two points from their

00:09:07last eight league games against Manchester City, they still live in hope of getting one from this.

00:09:13Rhys James, six minutes were indicated, three of them have been played, here's Gusto, oh excellent,

00:09:19got away from O'Reilly, there's four in the middle for Chelsea, Gusto, Dilap couldn't get there,

00:09:24surely from Enzo Fernandes for Chelsea. It's 1-1 in stoppage time and you cannot say they don't deserve it.

00:09:35Donnarumma is beaten, Fernandes scores, Chelsea and Arsenal celebrate an Enzo Fernandes equaliser.

00:09:45There is a check, of course, possible offside. Enzo Fernandes at the second attempt,

00:09:56prodded it into the back of the net and the goal will stand. It's Manchester City 1, Chelsea 1.

00:10:08Pep, very frustrating finish to the game. It felt like the control got away from you a little bit,

00:10:13because first half you were 1-0 up, it could have been more.

00:10:17The control go away for what?

00:10:19Well, I felt you were completely in control of the game at half-time and they changed shape a little bit

00:10:25and the momentum of the game changed a bit.

00:10:28I'm not agreeing, but it's OK. They scored a goal, that's why you analyze the results. Of course,

00:10:34they make a step up, we make it more intense in the pressing. They had the chances because we lost two

00:10:39balls in the beginning of the second half, but if you believe they achieved the momentum, OK,

00:10:45you know, maybe not better than me.

00:10:47We started really well, especially the first half. The second half, it was a bit more open

00:10:51and went more up and down and still we created some big opportunities and, yeah,

00:10:56disappointed that we conceded the goal so late.

00:11:00So we all know the week we've had, but the boys were focused and, yeah, in life you either drop your

00:11:06heads or you keep going. And for us, we knew what the game plan was today. We knew what we wanted

00:11:11and, yeah, we've done well to get the point.

00:11:13It's credit to the players. Like, imagine what they're feeling at half-time.

00:11:18Manchester City with a much better team in the first half, interim coach, all the change that's

00:11:22gone on, all the injuries we've had, by the character they've shown. And they've shown it all week.

00:11:26Like, Reece, Enzo, Tosin, like, the leaders in the group have really pulled it together.

00:11:31So it's a special, special group of players.

00:11:34A frustrated Pep Guardiola there because City have dropped four points in their last two matches,

00:11:39but Callum McFarlane there had a game plan to frustrate them and it worked largely in the first half.

00:11:44Yeah, a rookie manager, you know, one chance in a lifetime to manage against Pep Guardiola,

00:11:47perhaps, away at the edge. He had nothing to lose, but he had a game plan, he definitely had,

00:11:51and City couldn't find a way through. They did eventually with rounders, but at the same time,

00:11:55this was a game plan here. We've seen this for most of the first half. You see a 5-4-1 formation,

00:12:00Gabby, and now you're asking City, can they, are they good enough to play through these lines,

00:12:04play through the first, they're really nice and compact. And you know, you know, Callum McFarlane

00:12:08would have worked on this, you know, leading up to the game, it's a big day for him. But again,

00:12:11there's a lot of turmoil, he says at the football club, but there's a clear message,

00:12:13you see the five again. This time, Rounders, Rounders receives the ball, Achimpong jumps out,

00:12:19but you see then, this opportunity, they do get in. But again, they've got enough players back in

00:12:23a defensive position to clear the danger. You see in the middle, we'll see Haaland, you know,

00:12:272v1, there's plenty of bodies back, enough to defend across. And again, they look comfortable

00:12:32for long periods of the first half, defending against Manchester City, who we know how good

00:12:37they are going forward. I said to Gary Offer, I said, at some stage you'll have to feel a punch

00:12:41when you go to Manchester. You see here, they commit six bodies forward, Gabby. That's great

00:12:45if you can get a shot off or get a goal. But what it does do, if you won the tackle,

00:12:49which they do in the edge of the box, now you're buying in trouble. They do get away

00:12:52because they won the tackle high up the pitch, and you think they've escaped the danger.

00:12:56But they never got back into that 5-4-1 formation that we spoke about just previously. And City,

00:13:01again, we know how decisive they are in the forward positions. They move the ball really quickly,

00:13:05get forward. And again, there's a bit of luck at the end of this, because it comes off the defender.

00:13:09You see a 4v4 high up the pitch. They're really stretched now at this point, Chelsea.

00:13:13But they nearly get away. A bit of luck, a bit of a break. And you think Reinders,

00:13:17on your left foot, you know, it's a brilliant finish from him because he's right-footed,

00:13:20and it's a fantastic finish. But again, defensively, I think Chelsea were really strong today in that

00:13:25first half. Pip might have alluded to that he didn't think there was a momentum shift,

00:13:28but we certainly think there was one. Because 1-0 down at half-time, McFarlane wasn't afraid

00:13:33to make tactical changes. No, I think fair play to him, because the easiest part of a manager's job is when

00:13:37you've got time. So when you've got the week to build your prep, like the bit that Shea's just

00:13:41covered there, you've got days to work on that on the training ground. But when it's match day and

00:13:45it's half-time when you're 1-0 down and you need to make a call, he didn't back out of making that

00:13:49call. You know, to take Esteval off, to shift the shape. You can see it here. They've moved Gusto

00:13:55back into his high right-back position rather than being on the left. Esteval has been withdrawn.

00:14:00They put Santos on to play in that double pivot, and it's allowed Enzo to play higher up the pitch.

00:14:05And then he used that freedom, Enzo, to cause Man City real problems. You see here they regain the

00:14:09ball. Cole Palmer rolled in off this right-hand side like he did so well against PSG in the Club

00:14:14World Cup. And now Enzo just using that running power. You know, and he's able to break forward

00:14:19and show great quality. And then Neto will be disappointed with that, because I know he's

00:14:23better than that from those areas. And then the introduction of Liam De Lappe as well,

00:14:26had a real impact on the game, caused the centre-backs of Manchester City problems.

00:14:30You see Enzo again here with that running power driving the team forward. Wouldn't have been able

00:14:35to do that in the first half from the lower position he was in. Bit of a longer clip,

00:14:38but they managed to sustain the pressure, get Enzo on the ball again in a high position,

00:14:43and a great ball into Liam De Lappe. And he did cause the centre-backs problems when he came on Liam.

00:14:47Although Manchester City did lose their two in Guardiola and in Diaz, they did cause the two that came on

00:14:55real problems. And then Gusto, high right back, he's much better on that side than he's on the left.

00:15:0094th minute, Enzo still using his power and his running power to get himself in a position that

00:15:05allows Chelsea to take a well-earned point away from the Etihad, which is no mean feat for an

00:15:11interim manager on his first day in charge. Yeah, sixth goal of the season. Look what it means to

00:15:14him there. And there were some lovely scenes at the end as well. We saw with Rhys James obviously

00:15:18making him go over to the Chelsea fans. And you can see as a manager, that must be enormously

00:15:22gratifying when you see the difference your changes have made. Yeah, and that should not

00:15:27be underestimated because that's difficult. He alluded to it in his post-match speech there

00:15:31around how the players would be feeling. You know, you've been completely dominated by

00:15:34Manchester City. You just do that to teams. And then to be able to make a change and be able to

00:15:39make the players believe in that change, and then to produce numbers like that, XG, shots,

00:15:44everything up, touches in the opposition box. So Pep might not have felt the momentum change quite so

00:15:49much, but the stats definitely showed that there was one. Yeah, it might be a short tenure as interim

00:15:54manager because reports are, and we understand that, Liam Rossinia is already in London, ready to

00:15:59be announced as Chelsea manager tomorrow. The Strasbourg manager currently, where he's been managing and

00:16:05doing fairly well, Shea, as well. 153 matches in his managerial career today, including Hull. So not the

00:16:11most experienced. No, but I think this is Liam's dream. I think all his life is that he's managed at the

00:16:16very highest level. And the Chelsea is one of the biggest jobs you'll get in the Premier League and

00:16:21maybe in world football. And I think he's ready. You say he's managed 153 games. He's done his

00:16:25apprenticeship and he's ready to go. He managed a young Strasbourg team as well, got them into

00:16:30European competition. And I think he'll be buzzing. You talk about the squad of players that Chelsea have.

00:16:36I know they've spent a lot of money, but they've spent well. He's worked with young players at

00:16:40Strasbourg before, and I think he's eager to jump into this position. The group own Strasbourg and

00:16:45Chelsea. They know how he works. They like the way he sets his team up there. He knows how they

00:16:49work. That's important. Yeah, it will be important. And that will be a key part to him taking the role,

00:16:53I think. And he's, you know, the Premier League's tough, and he'll find that out. But it's much

00:16:57easier doing it with Chelsea and the top players that you have available to you than maybe an

00:17:01introduction to the Premier League for a promotion with a newly promoted side. So he's going to get a

00:17:05fantastic opportunity at a top club. And obviously, we'll see very soon whether he's ready to grasp it.

00:17:10Thank you. Five more games to come from Sunday after December's goal of the month.

00:17:22What a strike! That was Vincent Kompany-esque. Well, it was a belter.

00:17:38Wilson. Oh, what a goal!

00:17:55The link-up play is absolutely sumptuous here. It is perfection.

00:18:01Lindenhock. Bit of space here for Morgan Rodgers. Might have a go at goal. And it's a brilliant

00:18:13strike as well.

00:18:19Rodgers in a lot of space. And how about that for a finish?

00:18:22Well, that's an absolute belter. Always looks good, doesn't it, when it comes in off the post.

00:18:47A free kick, which Chelsea hope will be a profitable one.

00:18:55Rhys James. Oh, it is!

00:18:58It's outstanding from Rhys James.

00:19:03Because that was inch-perfect.

00:19:04Again, giving the ball in a precarious position, but he's kept hold of it.

00:19:18And Morgan Rodgers has kept it in. Head down, it's Rodgers!

00:19:25It's an absolute ripper! He should never score from there. From that position, Rodgers in red-hot form.

00:19:34It's aри.

00:19:38tout court with the long throw.

00:19:41Volta Marder's head.

00:19:43Door goal!

00:19:44OooooooOh!

00:19:49What a memorable way to score your first Manchester United goal!

00:20:02Impressing.

00:20:02it's not well though

00:20:09stack super ball from him and to aarons

00:20:13and this forward here leads aaronson

00:20:18it's a fabulous team goal

00:23:42well for a moment it looked like it was too good to be true

00:23:46when wilson was bearing down on goal

00:23:48that was certainly the

00:23:50initial verdict of the

00:23:52referee's assistant

00:23:54but confirmation

00:23:55virgil van dyke the one that was playing him on

00:23:58and that splendid finish

00:24:01beyond the reach of allison is the goal to make it

00:24:04fulham 1 liverpool 0

00:24:06since the start of november

00:24:09only the top three in the premier league have picked up more points than fulham

00:24:14fulham remains an option

00:24:20fulham remain well organised

00:24:24from xobozlai charged down by smithrow corner kick

00:24:32xobozlai and headed against the crossbar

00:24:42anderson there

00:24:43now appeals for a penalty

00:24:46fulham survive

00:24:47mccallister head in hands

00:24:51knows how close he was to levelling things up

00:24:54bradley

00:25:03pouncing on a loose ball

00:25:05and driving at fulham

00:25:06and finding florian nets

00:25:08and once again

00:25:11the ball finds the back of the net

00:25:15liverpool discover that it was from an offside position

00:25:19florian vets this time

00:25:20the unlucky player in red

00:25:22kind of probably did tremendously well

00:25:25arguably deserved an assist for his contribution

00:25:28but vets was just beyond isa diop

00:25:31this is just being cleared up

00:25:34just in case

00:25:36diop's trailing leg was beyond

00:25:39the outstretched right boot of florian verts at the critical moment

00:25:43once again

00:25:47the on-field decision is going to be overturned

00:25:50and liverpool have an equaliser

00:25:52and florian verts has another liverpool goal

00:25:56it has been delivered at a critical moment

00:26:00belated jubilation in the away end

00:26:03is a muted celebration from liverpool

00:26:05who know there is still work to be done

00:26:07isa diop adjudged to have just been playing

00:26:11florian verts onside

00:26:14and just as in the first half of fulham

00:26:17liverpool's goal has taken some unpicking

00:26:20but the decision is to award it

00:26:23and it's fulham won liverpool won

00:26:25we'll want more than a point now

00:26:30so dominant have his side been in this second half

00:26:34bradley

00:26:37yes sir

00:26:38go go go go go

00:26:40robinson

00:26:42super pass

00:26:44well jimenez

00:26:45looks to be in

00:26:47alison has come

00:26:48knocked out with it

00:26:49wilson

00:26:49off the bar

00:26:51who'll get there first

00:26:53virgil van dyke

00:26:54so close fulham to regaining the leap

00:26:58the direct approach

00:27:00nearly working so effectively

00:27:03harry wilson looking to add to his first half goal

00:27:06denied by the crossbar

00:27:07and van dyke it was

00:27:10who made sure that he got to the loose ball

00:27:13the unbeaten runs have taken liverpool into the top four

00:27:17and fulham into european contention themselves

00:27:20which of the two

00:27:21has the greater desire

00:27:23and the quality

00:27:24to turn

00:27:26the draw into three points

00:27:29time running out

00:27:31but there is still time

00:27:33craven bear

00:27:35and the bradley

00:27:39for frimpong quality cross required

00:27:42and that is a quality cross

00:27:45which looks to have produced a match winning moment for cody gapo

00:27:51that gapo was alert to

00:28:04showing the instincts required

00:28:06has responded with a goal at a critical moment

00:28:11a vicious delivery

00:28:13that gapo was alert to

00:28:16showing the instincts required

00:28:20to step forward late on in the game

00:28:23and score for liverpool a goal

00:28:26that looks to have secured for them a fifth win in eight

00:28:30well having scored

00:28:34and having been cautioned as a consequence

00:28:37cody gapo is going to be withdrawn

00:28:40but he can leave with the acclaim of the travelling support

00:28:44they feel as though it's job done

00:28:47robinson's throw to kevin

00:28:55and then will field defeat is harsh on them

00:29:00harrison reed from distance

00:29:01an exceptional goal

00:29:06from the most unlikely source

00:29:08a how and well moment from harrison reed

00:29:13just as the points look gone for fulham

00:29:17they have responded

00:29:19almost immediately

00:29:21in the groove fulham

00:29:23they simply don't know at the moment when they are beaten

00:29:25sent on

00:29:27to provide some midfield energy late in the game

00:29:31and instead

00:29:32it is harrison reed

00:29:34who has scored the most improbable late equaliser

00:29:38a near perfect strike

00:29:41better than anything he could possibly have dreamed of delivering

00:29:44an exceptional goal

00:29:46to make it fulham to liverpool two

00:29:50have you ever hit a ball better than that

00:29:54it fell nice off the foot

00:29:55and then it was just praying it went in the top corner

00:29:57to see it dip in obviously circumstances as well

00:30:00amazing feeling

00:30:01i will tell you i've been practicing and training

00:30:04the boys

00:30:04the boys know it they've seen it as well

00:30:06so just had

00:30:07just had to get my chance

00:30:08he says he's been practicing

00:30:09is that what you sent him on to do

00:30:11it's not the first time that you see it to be honest

00:30:13yesterday of course is a moment that

00:30:15they use in the end of the minus one session to do it something

00:30:19i i of course if you ask me

00:30:21of course i didn't put him thinking that he's going to score that goal

00:30:23but of course that is poor inspiration from him

00:30:26and he deserves all the greatness

00:30:27i think we fought very hard in the second half

00:30:29we were dominating at moments

00:30:31trying to create chances to go through

00:30:34and at the end yeah i scored i think 90 plus 5

00:30:38the moment i i sat down on the bench

00:30:40they scored wonderful goal to be fair

00:30:42we were two one up and having to defend

00:30:45a long throw in which we expected and

00:30:48we brought joe gomais in because he's of course he's very good for the air

00:30:52but they didn't take it long they took it short

00:30:56and it was an incredible strike

00:30:58the boys should deserve to get a reward

00:31:01once in a while but unfortunately we don't get it

00:31:04and the only ones to blame is ourselves as well

00:31:06because we concede in these moments

00:31:09but fighting so hard to be two one up

00:31:12it's unbelievable that every time then the ball goes in in the end

00:31:16but it was a truly magnificent goal

00:31:20harrison reed coming in with the heroics of harrison ford

00:31:23with that goal

00:31:24at 92 minutes he comes on the pitch

00:31:2696 minutes i think you just need to wax lyrical

00:31:28yeah i don't think marco silver brought him off

00:31:30on off the bench for this

00:31:31probably just to maybe sew it up

00:31:32or to try and like give a bit of balance in midfield

00:31:34if liverpool break away

00:31:36but they set up for it for a long throw

00:31:37is arniss lost

00:31:38but reed comes into the picture

00:31:39i mean at this

00:31:40you know you let the pictures do this justice

00:31:42this is just a phenomenal strike

00:31:43it's quite funny harrison said after that

00:31:45i've practiced this in training

00:31:46but again like that just roider over stuff

00:31:48it really is

00:31:49to get that much dip in movement

00:31:51and swaz allison's got absolutely no chance at all

00:31:53and see if it just pops up as he hits it there

00:31:55this is an unbelievable strike

00:31:57i mean gary you maybe weren't overly happy

00:31:59with the liverpool defending

00:32:00yeah no and i understand they're set up for a long throw

00:32:03but as soon as fulham don't throw it long

00:32:05you have to react to this 4v2

00:32:07you know some of them liverpool players in the penalty area

00:32:09need to get up and get some pressure on the ball

00:32:11you can't leave that 4v2 for that long

00:32:13and of course you don't expect to be punished like this

00:32:16but boy did harrison be punished in a hell of a strike

00:32:19i'm not sure many of his practices went where that one went

00:32:21but the one that mattered did

00:32:23now there's no alexander isak we know for liverpool for a few months

00:32:27ekatike out at the moment

00:32:28could be back later this week for the arsenal game on thursday

00:32:31it's a short-term injury

00:32:32so kody gakpo playing in a more central role today

00:32:35what did you make of his performance

00:32:36yeah i didn't mind it actually

00:32:37you know i think arna slott talked about maybe

00:32:39in front of the goal we struggled

00:32:40but i think gakpo done well

00:32:41you keep an eye on him here on the left-hand side

00:32:44but he actually bends his run here as a centre forward you want to do

00:32:47and he gets through on goal

00:32:48i mean it's just not a great finish at the end of that

00:32:50on his weaker left foot

00:32:51of course we know him cutting in on his right

00:32:52he's very strong

00:32:53but again look at central of the goal

00:32:55and again this is a brilliant header

00:32:56heads it back where it came from

00:32:57just a little bit unlucky

00:32:58that it's come back off the woodwork

00:33:00but great movement from him

00:33:01and then again we show that he's involved in the goal

00:33:03i think latter parts of the stage

00:33:04he went out to the left side

00:33:05but he's not happy just be getting involved in the build-up

00:33:08gabby's thinking right can we score a goal

00:33:10he makes himself 94-95 minutes

00:33:12brilliant ball from frimpong

00:33:13and where is he

00:33:14number nine in the middle of the six-yard box

00:33:16where you want him to be

00:33:17and he tucks it away nicely

00:33:18and again he thinks he's got the winning goal

00:33:20at this stage before

00:33:22mr reed stepped up

00:33:23and stole the party off him

00:33:24but i was happy with gakpo how he played

00:33:27it says he's played before there for PSV

00:33:29he's played there for the netherlands as well

00:33:30so i think he knows the position

00:33:32okay there was a lot of noise online

00:33:34about florian versus goal

00:33:36of course during the match it was checked for offside

00:33:38and to the naked eye

00:33:40there are angles where it does look offside

00:33:42now from a semi-automated kind of opinion and position

00:33:46they're happy that with the tolerance that they have

00:33:49with the lines

00:33:50that it is onside

00:33:51because the advantage when the lines touch

00:33:53between the last player and the defender

00:33:56is about five centimetres

00:33:58and it's given to the attacking player

00:33:59that kind of advantage

00:34:00are you happy

00:34:01all the best gary

00:34:02yeah gabby's done quite well

00:34:03explaining that there

00:34:04i've had my own battles with var

00:34:06and trying to guess as a manager

00:34:08whether it's on or off

00:34:10but they made they did make the lines thicker

00:34:12four years ago i think

00:34:13to try and give an advantage

00:34:14but i think all of us would say

00:34:16that on the naked eye

00:34:18florian verts his foot looks ahead

00:34:20of the ops there

00:34:21florian verts looks like he's just drifted

00:34:24into that lighter cut of grass

00:34:25whereas we would say diop looks firmly planted in the darker cut

00:34:29so you would say

00:34:30that this is probably going to be disallowed for offside at this moment

00:34:34but then when it when it then turns to the to the semi-automated view

00:34:37you can see it doesn't quite look the same

00:34:40and it looks like florian verts has managed just to stay the right side of diop

00:34:46and whether that tolerance

00:34:47we don't have the privilege of seeing the lines here

00:34:50but whether that tolerance of about five centimetres

00:34:52has led to this goal standing

00:34:54is a possibility but

00:34:55florian verts needs the goal to be fair to him

00:34:58full and won't be so pleased with it but a big goal for florian verts

00:35:01marco silva's reaction

00:35:02seems quite measured

00:35:03yeah i guess the harrison reed goal

00:35:06probably takes the edge off it a little bit for him

00:35:08and i think as

00:35:10as managers and coaches in the end

00:35:12you have to accept that

00:35:13the technology is there to do its job

00:35:14and we have to accept that

00:35:16at the moment

00:35:16it's doing the best job that it possibly can

00:35:18and it's being interpreted in the best way possible

00:35:20you mentioned it's been a few years now that that has been the way they've been viewed

00:35:23and actually the premier league is the only major league left in europe that is doing that the others are still kind of working or are working to the toenail

00:35:30yeah so a strong possibility that maybe would have been disallowed in in some of the other major leagues around europe but as it is at the moment the technology has got that one right for us and cleared up a very tight decision

00:35:39you say cleared up i mean we're talking yeah yeah cleared up to the best we can

00:35:42okay next leeds united and manchester united renew their war of the roses as the reds cross the pennines to play the whites of yorkshire

00:35:51your commentator is guy mowbray

00:35:53after today every team in the premier league will have faced all the others this season

00:36:00the opponents leeds look for first are the ones they've had to wait for longest

00:36:06there are two changes to the leads lineup from their new year's day draw at liverpool

00:36:10with dominic calvert lewin and noah okafor coming back in to start

00:36:14lucas mecha is a substitute captain ethan amperdue ruled out suspended and jayden bogle is out with a calf injury

00:36:22for the visiting united only one difference to their team in names as lenny euro replaces joshua zergzi

00:36:28he's on the bench alongside five teenagers with a whole raft of senior players once again absent

00:36:35leeds waiting to play manchester united pales away compared with waiting to beat them

00:36:44they haven't done that in nine premier league meetings and in seven overalls since jermaine

00:36:50beckford's one nil winner for then league one leads at old trafford 16 years ago yesterday

00:36:56lamans nice easy stroke of the ball offside flag is raised as matthias cuña has a go

00:37:04and scores in fine style but it's not going to count

00:37:08and i'm pretty sure he was offside

00:37:14maybe not matthias cuña but i'm pretty certain cesco was and he went for the ball to try and help it on

00:37:24whether he touched it or not is largely irrelevant

00:37:2622 minutes in and leeds united pay tribute to joshua pick who died suddenly aged 22 recently a lead season ticket holder

00:37:41from six years old his dad and sister are here at the game today and we wish them all well

00:37:48justin calvert lewin shielding his eyes from the low sun here's strauch

00:37:56stack calvert lewin off the post

00:38:04so close to scoring again

00:38:08he was inches away from being one nil leads through their number nine once more

00:38:13just what a striker in dominic calvert lewin's form would want

00:38:17only needed just a little bit more head on ball

00:38:21that clears borne out cuña

00:38:27shaw

00:38:29two in the box for cuña dog who can't attack it though

00:38:33it's turned behind by goodmanson

00:38:35and after a spell of leads being in the ascendancy it might be manchester united's turn for a bit now

00:38:42look sure to take the corner

00:38:46it's a deep one

00:38:48and it's casimiro and saved by lucas perry

00:38:51brilliant reaction stop

00:38:53casimiro on to lenny euro just trying to divert it

00:38:58all he could do there was get it goal bound he did that

00:39:02lucas perry in the right place

00:39:04a game that needs a creative spark

00:39:09a game that needs a player of eddie gray's abilities

00:39:13he made his league united debut 60 years ago

00:39:16first of january 1966

00:39:19three nil against sheffield wednesday he scored one and he made two before assists were a thing

00:39:24what a player

00:39:26stroke

00:39:28heaven has a look aronson is closing in and aronson is there first and finishes

00:39:38ellen road has erupted

00:39:39brendan aronson's non-stop running has got reward

00:39:48aiden heaven caught cold

00:39:52a moment for all these young and old to absolutely love

00:39:57aronson has not always been flavor of the month here

00:40:02right now at this minute

00:40:04he's the toast of the town

00:40:06he wanted it just that bit more

00:40:09but then he had to find the composure to put it in

00:40:12brilliantly dispatched

00:40:15and it's league united one manchester united nil

00:40:18and manchester united now feel the need to make a change

00:40:22lenny euro is off

00:40:23joshua zerkzzi comes on

00:40:25well aiden heaven has performed really well

00:40:28in these seven games now in a row that he started

00:40:31but there was an aberration

00:40:33you can't switch off in the premier league

00:40:36and in this fixture of all fixtures

00:40:38you absolutely must be on it at every second

00:40:42zerkzzi

00:40:44looking for cunha

00:40:46and cunha has slid in and slotted it past lucas perry

00:40:50it's 1-1

00:40:52league's turn to get it all wrong in defense

00:40:57this is one of huge importance for manchester united

00:41:02cisco won it laid it off to zerkzzi

00:41:05he played a perfectly weighted pass for cunha

00:41:09and not for the first time cunha found himself free

00:41:12and just like aronson at the other end

00:41:15well how good was the finish

00:41:17the game has been plugged in

00:41:21from 0-0 to 1-1

00:41:23in just under three minutes

00:41:27okafor on his way

00:41:33calvert-lewin in the middle

00:41:35but so is heaven

00:41:36be all got a help on to that

00:41:49good try good save

00:41:50lemons forced to spring into action

00:41:54after okafor's acrobatic attempt

00:41:57great try

00:42:00so alex ferguson was 84 on new year's eve

00:42:06he was never going to miss this one

00:42:09dalo

00:42:11lukate

00:42:15zerkzzi

00:42:16now matthias cunha luke shaw is an extra center forward in this move

00:42:21here's zerkzzi

00:42:22zerkzzi across cisco's effort is wide

00:42:25he made good contact with the ball

00:42:28he made good contact with the ball

00:42:28just maybe hit it too straight

00:42:31planted firmly wide of the post

00:42:34big chance for manchester united to take the lead

00:42:37be all's header goes straight to cunha

00:42:42cisco gets it through the legs for zerkzzi

00:42:45now it's dorku

00:42:47cunha wants it

00:42:48cunha has the try

00:42:49oh was it saved or just wide

00:42:52look at the curl on that from cunha

00:42:57so so close to

00:43:00making it 2-1 manchester united

00:43:02it's justin who heads forward to nyonto

00:43:06lovely ball from nyonto

00:43:10here's stack

00:43:11piru to the right

00:43:13stack finds him

00:43:14piru

00:43:15under the roof

00:43:17made his mind up before the ball came to him

00:43:21that that's what he was going to try to do

00:43:24not far away at all

00:43:27and it is full time at ellen road

00:43:31leads draw for a third game in a row

00:43:35there's seven unbeaten now

00:43:37but manchester united have only lost one of their last eight

00:43:41they're much more resilient away from home these days

00:43:44lead united one

00:43:46manchester united one

00:43:47we are a bit disappointed because it was possible also to win this game

00:43:52you could feel that we were a bit tired today

00:43:55and also we're missing many key players

00:43:57it was probably football-wise not our best performance

00:44:00but we found still a way to defend really well

00:44:02and to go and lead

00:44:04and it was definitely possible also to win this game for that

00:44:06we are a bit disappointed

00:44:07but on the other hand

00:44:08it shows also

00:44:09and says a lot

00:44:10that you are disappointed with just one point against man united

00:44:13as a promoted side

00:44:14an important point for us

00:44:15we talk about this

00:44:16the resilience

00:44:17and then everyone knows like

00:44:19it's so important to the players

00:44:21who miss today

00:44:22but we have like a big character in the team

00:44:25we need like two easy shirts and then show everything in the pitch

00:44:28and then i think we did it

00:44:30and then i hope we can do much more the next game

00:44:32yeah we're going to take it you know with a ton of confidence

00:44:35because you know where we've been you know the last month of games that we've had

00:44:37i mean going to liverpool

00:44:38coming back home you know two away games

00:44:41and sunderland too

00:44:42they're not they're not easy places to go to

00:44:43so to stay unbeaten

00:44:44and i think we could even have more points from these games

00:44:46so um we just need to keep going from here

00:44:48well after the match

00:44:50ruben amaran said this in his press conference

00:44:52i just want to say that i'm going to be the manager of this team

00:44:57not just the coach

00:44:58and i was really clear on that

00:45:01and that is going to finish in 18 months

00:45:03and then everyone is going to to to move on

00:45:07that was the deal

00:45:09that is my job not to be a coach

00:45:12if people cannot handle the gary nevels and the criticism of everything

00:45:17we need to change the the club

00:45:20i came here to be the manager of manchester united not to be the coach

00:45:24and every department the scouting department the sport director needs to do their job

00:45:28i will do mine for 18 months and then we move on

00:45:31the question he was responding to ruben amaran was about control at the club

00:45:36and that answer clearly would would point to discord

00:45:39with regard to the hierarchy at the club

00:45:42yeah yeah he's not happy

00:45:43it looks like there's a bit of a

00:45:45it feels like we don't know obviously

00:45:46it feels like there's a bit of a fallout between himself

00:45:48and and of course jason walcox the director of football

00:45:51and he said in numerous cases two or three times there

00:45:53that he's the manager not just not just the coach

00:45:56so what that tells me is

00:45:57he's overseeing players coming in

00:45:59he's overseeing maybe players going out

00:46:00who comes to the club who doesn't

00:46:02or he would like to

00:46:02he would like to but maybe that's not happened

00:46:04maybe it's been nowhere in january now the promises of maybe players coming in

00:46:08maybe the goalposts have changed

00:46:09and a lot of you know

00:46:10gary may tell you about it

00:46:11but a lot of managers you know

00:46:12they are head coaches now

00:46:13and they've got heads of heads doing other things

00:46:15but you look at the great sir alex fergus

00:46:17and he managed that football club

00:46:18like no other

00:46:19i look at maybe a new nae emery at aston villa

00:46:21it feels like he's got the final say

00:46:24in everything that comes and goes in aston villa

00:46:25and look where they're at in the league

00:46:26and also i'd say if man united won on weston eight against burnley

00:46:29they're up the fourth

00:46:30and if you look at their bench in the last couple of weeks

00:46:32he's got a bunch of kids on there

00:46:33so i don't think he's doing a bad job

00:46:34but it does feel as a bit of a

00:46:36a bit of a falling out behind the scenes perhaps

00:46:38what do you think as a manager sitting in that chair

00:46:40his aim was

00:46:41what was the end game

00:46:42yeah no i think when you deliver a press conference like that

00:46:45you're obviously trying to make a point

00:46:46he's unhappy about something

00:46:48it's very difficult for us

00:46:49without knowing the inner workings at the football club

00:46:51and the conversations that go on

00:46:52what he's unhappy with

00:46:54i agree with shay that

00:46:55there's not much for him to work with at the moment

00:46:58if you look at that bench that manchester united are naming

00:47:00you know it's they are fifth or sixth in the league

00:47:02and maybe they're not underachieving too much

00:47:05with what he's got available to him

00:47:06so i understand his his need and his want for more backing

00:47:09um but it is a dicey game to play

00:47:12when you're sat in that chair

00:47:13and you start to criticize people above you

00:47:14maybe when it's not gone overly well for you

00:47:17over the last 18 months

00:47:18but you know he's an intelligent guy

00:47:20big boy i'm sure he knows what he's doing

00:47:22and if he feels he needs to make a point in that moment

00:47:24then he has every right to do so

00:47:26i guess recent example enzema reska didn't quite work out for him did it when he

00:47:29no it goes one way or the other

00:47:30you normally get some support or or it can end fairly abruptly

00:47:33on the pitch the player that they're looking to at the moment for creativity and an attacking threat

00:47:37you know very well matthias kunya from your time at wolves

00:47:39yeah one of my favorite players that i worked with at wolves

00:47:42we did an awful lot of work with him

00:47:43um on arriving in attacking areas that really suited him

00:47:47so manchester united have used him in a similar zone

00:47:50but it does still feel like he's carrying a lot of the burden in the attacking

00:47:54i know they're missing players at the moment

00:47:55fantastic finish he's unlucky that cesco's just

00:47:58not quite managed to get back from an offside position

00:48:00but shows his quality

00:48:01but here just a lack of attackers on the pitch from ntsc united

00:48:05and you know kunya needs people he needs runners to be able to find

00:48:09and he'll find them his right foot's one of the best in the business

00:48:12so there he's only got cesco

00:48:13and dog who's really late to arrive

00:48:15so a fantastic ball into a dangerous area from kunya

00:48:18but not enough attackers for him to play with and combine and

00:48:21and create things here dallo playing outside

00:48:24poor ball inside and now aronson punishes them on the counter attack

00:48:27and this was the catalyst really

00:48:29this was the thing that sparked a reaction from amory and manchester united

00:48:32zerksey comes straight off the bench

00:48:34and literally instantly you see three attackers who are able to combine

00:48:38no fullbacks playing higher up the pitch

00:48:40three out and out attackers

00:48:42and they're able to combine cesco sets zerksey

00:48:45kunya makes that running behind

00:48:47and we did loads and loads of finishing drills with him

00:48:49and his right foot when you get him in and around the goal is deadly

00:48:52he hits the net time after time

00:48:54same again zerksey zesco

00:48:55they work it between them

00:48:57and then they find the third link

00:48:58matthias kunya

00:48:59once you get him here

00:49:00if he's got a runner

00:49:01he'll find it

00:49:02in the first half he didn't have one

00:49:03second half zerksey makes a fantastic running behind

00:49:06perfect weight on the pass from kunya

00:49:08and then zesco will be disappointed he should do better

00:49:10same again kunya

00:49:12drops down to him

00:49:14he's got two to combine with two attackers who he can play with would probably like more

00:49:17but at least he's got two

00:49:18they combine again

00:49:19zerksey and zesco are able to take the defenders away

00:49:22gets matthias kunya half a yard

00:49:24and then that one of a right foot

00:49:26nearly clinches the whole three points for manchester united

00:49:29but another big big performance for him

00:49:31and here you can see like

00:49:32there's no they're not blessed with goals

00:49:34you know matthias kunya for casemiro for

00:49:37and then there's not a lot else in that group

00:49:39and i understand they're missing players

00:49:41but this is manchester united it's the biggest or one of the biggest clubs in the country

00:49:45and you would expect their starting eleven and bench

00:49:48to provide a lot more goal threat than it does at the moment

00:49:50so heavily reliant on matthias

00:49:51and it says a lot about leeds and their run in december in particular

00:49:55so the reaction of a lot of the players and the manager there

00:49:58that you know yes they're happy with the point

00:49:59but they've had such a good run since that defeat at the end of november to city

00:50:03they haven't lost a game in so

00:50:04yeah the flame he was under pressure daniel farke as well wasn't he

00:50:07and they trusted him they stuck behind him

00:50:08seven unbeaten eight points clear of the drop zone

00:50:10he's doing a great job

00:50:12okay we've got plenty more sport coming up for you on the bbc

00:50:48table by just a single point your commentator for this one is tom gale

00:50:51david moise feels europa or conference league qualification is a realistic game for everton

00:50:58jack grealish is now fully recovered from the festive lurgy

00:51:01tieno barry says watching videos of former toffee striker romelu lukaku

00:51:06helped inspire his goal last time out at forest

00:51:0927 points is brentford's second highest telly at this stage of a premier league season

00:51:14quivine keller has seven seasons at liverpool included only one merseyside derby

00:51:19a one nil victory at anfield in april of last year

00:51:22after a dry december igor tiago is looking to end a six game wait for a goal

00:51:27o'brien tried to reverse the ball

00:51:35only find dams guards

00:51:37tiago

00:51:38blocks jensen's attempted ball and grealish gets away

00:51:43jack grealish

00:51:45back to dwight and a kneel

00:51:47who draws

00:51:48a fine stop from

00:51:50quivine keller

00:51:51first big moment for the irish goalkeeper

00:51:56first corner of the game

00:52:00to be taken by dwight mcneil

00:52:02tricky one

00:52:04cleared off the line by tiago

00:52:06well a nervy few minutes for keith andrews is met

00:52:11and it's brentford's number nine

00:52:14back on defensive duties

00:52:16david moy is just a few days away from mark in 12 months since his return back to the club

00:52:23everton 11 points better off at this stage than last season

00:52:26tarkovsky

00:52:30jenna intercepts cross towards tiago

00:52:35a fair sniff of a goal for igor tiago and he dispatches it

00:52:44david moy is clearly not impressed

00:52:48but that happened ever so quickly for brentford's

00:52:52everton are in possession here

00:52:55tarkovsky

00:52:56that passes red and yanl very speedy on the delivery

00:53:01and tiago gets in behind michael keane only earling harland has bagged more goals than the

00:53:08brazilian so far this season his 12th of the campaign to make it everton nil brentford

00:53:14one brentford's first efforts on goal bringing about maximum rewards

00:53:21jensen

00:53:23tiago to make it two denied by jordan pickford

00:53:28excellent movement off the ball from tiago

00:53:33jordan pickford uses the angle to his advantage

00:53:37grealish

00:53:40last chance possibly here

00:53:44for everton to change the scoreline in the first half

00:53:47grealish

00:53:48still grealish

00:53:50onto his left

00:53:52ball across and what a save

00:53:54barry denied

00:53:55and so too keen

00:53:57incredible

00:54:00goalkeeping from

00:54:02quivine kelleher

00:54:03keeps brentford in front

00:54:05coyote

00:54:13dams guard

00:54:15gets away from irobuna

00:54:16goes low

00:54:18actually gave the everton man another chance at that

00:54:21but it will be a brentford corner

00:54:23janalt in front of the away support

00:54:30decent one and it's headed home

00:54:33captain fantastic nathan collins

00:54:38well what a start to the second half for keith andrews' side

00:54:44the run's not tracked and it's a simple header from close range for the irishman

00:54:51brentford

00:54:52heberton nil brentford two

00:54:55anthony

00:54:59NOA

00:54:59janalt

00:55:02urubuna

00:55:04and sir

00:55:04through the legs of kane

00:55:09Sharda

00:55:12Sharda

00:55:13Sharda

00:55:13Tiago

00:55:14Brentford are running riots at the Hill Dickinson Stadium

00:55:22look at that from Jensen

00:55:28Thiago takes charge his second of the afternoon who saw this scoreline coming pre-kickoff

00:55:40is the suspicion of an offside VAR are we having a look

00:55:44onside goal stands I'm not sure that's necessary from Thiago he's hugged Beto

00:55:53well after what David Moyes described as Everton's best performance since his return back to the club

00:56:01away at Nottingham Forest they're following it up with a horror show here against Brentford

00:56:06Garner's ball in decent one net by Torkoski and tipped over by Kelleher

00:56:15decent stop from underneath this crossbar

00:56:19that's a challenge is higher

00:56:28so slides in and the decision is Everton throw

00:56:34Grealish Beto glances it on and Everton have one back

00:56:47muted celebrations

00:56:51a sterny look from David Moyes is there life in this game yet for the home side

00:56:57it's the first time this season that an Everton player has come off the bench and scored

00:57:05neat header Kelleher beaten

00:57:09I think a few minutes ago maybe some Everton supporters were questioning whether or not they should see this one out

00:57:17well that goal certainly changed their minds

00:57:20dams guard only Lewis Potter to aim for so far does find him back to Thiago on a hat-trick and it deflects

00:57:30and into the welcome arms of Jordan Pickford the speed in which Keith Andrews' side transition

00:57:38and they still managed to get a shot on target

00:57:41roll goes low again and here's Thiago

00:57:50he's in on a hat-trick Igor Thiago

00:57:55caps a superb away day for Brentford

00:58:04he secures the match ball and puts an end to this contest

00:58:10Everton were taking risks they were pushing men forwards

00:58:14and look at just how much time and space Igor Thiago has

00:58:21he's got the freedom of the hill Dickinson stadium to bear down on Jordan Pickford

00:58:27Everton one

00:58:30Brentford four

00:58:31as you can see lots of blue empty seats amongst the home supporters

00:58:40you've seen more than enough

00:58:43Grealish

00:58:47Grealish

00:58:50Barry

00:58:51still time for more goals in this match

00:58:55there hasn't been many positives for Everton here this afternoon

00:59:01but both of their strikers on the score sheet is one

00:59:04Everton two

00:59:06Brentford four

00:59:08we were excellent

00:59:12right from the off really played with a lot of personality

00:59:16conviction

00:59:17energy

00:59:18spirit

00:59:19all the aspects of the game that I want to see from our team

00:59:22it come into a very very difficult

00:59:23ground

00:59:25even though it's a new ground

00:59:26difficult club to play against

00:59:27manager to play against

00:59:28who I have a serious amount of respect for

00:59:31so we knew we'd have to earn

00:59:33a result today

00:59:34but I have to say I thought we were excellent

00:59:36disappointment that we didn't play better

00:59:38but

00:59:39no we're just a bit short at the moment in some areas

00:59:42but in areas we lost the goals today we weren't short

00:59:46we've been very strong in those areas

00:59:47but I thought we were disappointed defensively today

00:59:50and

00:59:51certainly not as strong as we have been

00:59:53a word of appreciation for Igor Thiago

00:59:55I'm sure you go against him a lot in training

00:59:57so you'll know about his attributes

00:59:59and

00:59:59a short spell without scoring but back amongst the goals

01:00:03he's just a handful

01:00:04he has a bit of everything

01:00:05he runs in behind, he works hard, he holds the ball up

01:00:07and he can finish a ball

01:00:08he has everything to be the top striker

01:00:10and if he keeps going like this there's no reason he can't be

01:00:12he's played really well recently

01:00:13and not scored

01:00:14so I always felt the goals would come again

01:00:16it was unrealistic to think

01:00:18he was just going to continue banging in goals

01:00:20left, right and centre

01:00:21week in, week out

01:00:22like he had been

01:00:22so

01:00:23his performance again today

01:00:25was sensational

01:00:26and he truly deserves the accolades

01:00:28that he'll get off the back of it

01:00:29certainly not a typical Brentford performance on the road this season

01:00:33they've lost seven of nine

01:00:34but they were running rampant at the Hill Dickinson

01:00:36today

01:00:37and Thiago in particular

01:00:38off the back of six games without scoring

01:00:40yeah

01:00:40he was excellent Gabby

01:00:41there was

01:00:42there was

01:00:42there was no sign of a lack of confidence

01:00:44after not scoring for six games

01:00:46obviously he's been in the goals over the course of the season

01:00:48Everton were poor

01:00:49you know

01:00:49this is not their finest day

01:00:51mistakes

01:00:51as you'll see in the build up to a lot of these chances

01:00:53but

01:00:53proper number nine

01:00:55great movement off the back of the centre half

01:00:56and a fantastic finish

01:00:58and you can see him here

01:00:59his team mate spoke about it there

01:01:01Nathan Collins

01:01:01always wanting to threaten in behind

01:01:03these runs in behind

01:01:04so hard to deal with

01:01:05Pickford manages to save this one

01:01:07but then maybe he learns from that chance

01:01:09where he's managed

01:01:09where he's smashed it

01:01:10and Pickford's got a hand to it

01:01:11he competes at the top of the pitch

01:01:13and he's a target man for them

01:01:14but now you see him again

01:01:15just threatening in behind that Everton back line

01:01:18and he caused them real real problems today

01:01:20he doesn't get the first one

01:01:21gets this one

01:01:22and that's a great finish

01:01:23to just lift it over Pickford

01:01:24would have been easy to smash it against him

01:01:26another poor ball from Everton

01:01:28and then not well organised

01:01:30behind the ball Everton on that clip

01:01:31and you leave Thiago in this sort of space

01:01:33in the form that he's in

01:01:34and all of us were pretty sure

01:01:35that this was going to end

01:01:36one way in a goal

01:01:37another little dink finish

01:01:39and a Premier League hat-trick for him

01:01:40and well deserved

01:01:42a fantastic performance

01:01:43and look at that

01:01:45he's in very good company

01:01:46he is

01:01:47and I think there's a big tournament

01:01:49coming up in the summer isn't there

01:01:50the World Cup

01:01:51that I'm sure he's got his eyes on

01:01:53because Brazil

01:01:53haven't really ever set number nine

01:01:55for a while

01:01:55and I know he hasn't been called up yet

01:01:57but if he stays on that list

01:01:59and he keeps the company

01:02:00that he's keeping at the moment

01:02:01then it would be very very hard

01:02:02not to take him

01:02:03I mentioned Brentford's away form

01:02:05because actually their league position

01:02:06is very good

01:02:07and it's been built

01:02:07on their home form

01:02:08and Hill Dickinson

01:02:10for Everton

01:02:11at the moment

01:02:12their form there

01:02:13isn't very good is it

01:02:14and having had a good start

01:02:16to their new home

01:02:17things are looking a bit wobbly

01:02:18yeah Moyes said

01:02:19they're short in a few areas

01:02:20and again he'll be looking

01:02:20maybe at the window

01:02:21to try and strengthen

01:02:22but yeah

01:02:22the graph speaks for itself

01:02:24doesn't it

01:02:24I mean they're very

01:02:24Hill Dickinson's a brand new stadium

01:02:26and sometimes the opposition

01:02:27look like they

01:02:28like playing there

01:02:29more so in the home team

01:02:30and sometimes that happens Gabby

01:02:31but David Moyes

01:02:32will want to put that right

01:02:33we know he's a top manager

01:02:33and I'm sure he'll get it right

01:02:35okay

01:02:35Eddie Howe has said

01:02:37that January will be

01:02:38a season defining month

01:02:39for his Newcastle side

01:02:41they begin 2026

01:02:42against another side

01:02:43struggling for forming

01:02:44Crystal Palace

01:02:44commentary comes from

01:02:45Martin Fisher

01:02:46January will be defining

01:02:50it will certainly be tiring

01:02:51nine games over the next

01:02:5428 days for Newcastle

01:02:55in four different competitions

01:02:57Palace know all about

01:02:59hectic schedules

01:03:00this is their 32nd match

01:03:02of the campaign

01:03:03no Premier League side

01:03:05has played more

01:03:06one change for Newcastle

01:03:08Harvey Barnes replaced

01:03:09by Jacob Murphy

01:03:10who scored in their last

01:03:12two wins here

01:03:13over Palace

01:03:14the Eagles give a debut

01:03:15to Brennan Johnson

01:03:16who only joined them

01:03:18from Spurs on Friday

01:03:19for a club record fee

01:03:21of 35 million pounds

01:03:23neither side

01:03:28in good form

01:03:29at the moment

01:03:29first win in four

01:03:31for Newcastle on Tuesday

01:03:33the first point in four

01:03:35for Palace on Thursday

01:03:37to Nali

01:03:40Gordon

01:03:41two to his right

01:03:43gets it back from

01:03:45Gimmarais

01:03:46on now for Murphy

01:03:47whistle waits in the middle

01:03:49Mitchell with the block

01:03:50Newcastle's corner

01:03:51some pieces again

01:03:57something that they have

01:03:58struggled with

01:03:59of late

01:04:00Lewis Hall

01:04:01to swing this in

01:04:02for Newcastle

01:04:03it's deep

01:04:04Henderson helps it

01:04:04on its way

01:04:05Wisser

01:04:08in by Tonali

01:04:11punched away

01:04:13by Henderson

01:04:14back in by Hall

01:04:15Scher

01:04:15great save

01:04:16Henderson

01:04:16well it wasn't the greatest

01:04:22of punches away

01:04:23by the Palace goalkeeper

01:04:25at the start

01:04:25of all that

01:04:26but he was

01:04:28in the right position

01:04:29to deal with it

01:04:30when it came back

01:04:31his way

01:04:31from Fabian Scher

01:04:32Gimmarais

01:04:37lovely ball

01:04:38Wisser

01:04:39in on goal

01:04:40squares for Gordon

01:04:411-0 Newcastle

01:04:448th goal of the season

01:04:48for Anthony Gordon

01:04:49his first in the Premier League

01:04:52that hasn't come

01:04:52from the penalty spot

01:04:53this season

01:04:54I wonder there

01:04:59if Wisser

01:04:59is actually

01:05:00just ahead

01:05:01of Lerner

01:05:02so tight

01:05:04isn't it

01:05:04cut of the grass

01:05:09it looks ever

01:05:09so tight

01:05:10but it's

01:05:10the shoulder

01:05:11of Wisser

01:05:11that is just

01:05:12ahead

01:05:13of the Palace

01:05:14man

01:05:14it won't

01:05:16count

01:05:16Newcastle

01:05:26inside

01:05:29for Gimmarais

01:05:30looking for

01:05:31Wisser

01:05:31and the block

01:05:34was by

01:05:35Canber

01:05:35Wisser

01:05:38looking sharp

01:05:39timed his run

01:05:40better there

01:05:41than he did

01:05:41earlier

01:05:412025

01:05:44brought welcome

01:05:45glory for

01:05:54history

01:05:58now Hughes

01:06:00Mitchell

01:06:01and Pino

01:06:02it's Pino

01:06:04through for Hughes

01:06:05who's in

01:06:05oh he should have

01:06:06buried it

01:06:07what a chance

01:06:08for Will Hughes

01:06:09well he doesn't

01:06:11score many

01:06:11but he really

01:06:13should have

01:06:13buried that

01:06:14opportunity

01:06:14lovely way

01:06:16to pass

01:06:16by Pino

01:06:17and from there

01:06:19Hughes somehow

01:06:20puts it

01:06:21wide

01:06:22of the target

01:06:22and look

01:06:24at the reaction

01:06:24of Oliver

01:06:25Glasner

01:06:25now Gordon

01:06:30four around the

01:07:15look at his face

01:07:16he intended

01:07:16it

01:07:16look at the

01:07:18swing on

01:07:19that

01:07:19Henderson

01:07:20will argue

01:07:20that he

01:07:21had it

01:07:21covered

01:07:22now a chance

01:07:24for Miley

01:07:35free kick

01:07:36this is where

01:07:38Oliver Glasner

01:07:40will be getting

01:07:41a little

01:07:41concern

01:07:41that

01:07:42Palace

01:07:43are beginning

01:07:43to tire

01:08:15Premier League

01:08:16goal of the

01:08:17season

01:08:18matches his

01:08:19best ever

01:08:20tally in the

01:08:20Premier League

01:08:21of two seasons

01:08:22ago

01:08:22it's another goal

01:08:25that Palace have

01:08:26conceded from a

01:08:26set piece

01:08:27it has been

01:08:28there undoing

01:08:29all too often

01:08:30in recent weeks

01:08:32driven in by

01:08:34Murphy

01:08:34Miley

01:08:35for Cher

01:08:36and a header

01:08:38from Barnes

01:08:38brilliantly saved

01:08:39by Henderson

01:08:40it almost

01:08:41bounced

01:08:41to Wissett

01:08:42but Cambo

01:08:44was there

01:08:44for Palace

01:08:45to shove it

01:08:46behind

01:08:46Newcastle

01:08:49pressing hard

01:08:50now for a

01:08:51second goal

01:08:51another dangerous

01:08:54corner

01:08:55Joel Linton

01:08:55got a touch

01:08:56and it's in

01:08:56Malik Chow

01:08:59makes it

01:08:59two

01:08:59to Newcastle

01:09:00and that

01:09:02is that

01:09:02I'm sure

01:09:03from St

01:09:03James'

01:09:04Park

01:09:04another set

01:09:05piece

01:09:06brings another

01:09:07goal

01:09:07against Crystal

01:09:08Palace

01:09:08and once

01:09:10again

01:09:11they have

01:09:12tired

01:09:13significantly

01:09:14the longer

01:09:15the game

01:09:15has worn

01:09:16on

01:09:16we'll pinball

01:09:18in there

01:09:18for a second

01:09:19or two

01:09:19and it's

01:09:20Chow

01:09:20who gets

01:09:21the vital

01:09:22final touch

01:09:22forward by

01:09:27Kimmerich

01:09:27Barnes

01:09:28looked like

01:09:29he timed

01:09:29his run

01:09:29brilliantly

01:09:30Barnes is

01:09:31in here

01:09:31for Newcastle

01:09:32for number

01:09:32three

01:09:33how was that

01:09:37put wide

01:09:38by Joe

01:09:38Willock

01:09:39Henderson

01:09:41did really

01:09:41well

01:09:42to block

01:09:43the effort

01:09:44from Barnes

01:09:44but it

01:09:45looked like

01:09:45it was

01:09:45just

01:09:46a temporary

01:09:47reprieve

01:09:48as Joe

01:09:49Willock

01:09:49came bursting

01:09:50in from

01:09:50the far

01:09:50side

01:09:51from there

01:09:52Joe

01:09:53Willock

01:09:53has found

01:09:54a way

01:09:54of missing

01:09:56the target

01:09:56but it

01:09:57won't matter

01:09:57Newcastle

01:09:58have come

01:09:59through this

01:09:59one

01:09:59in the end

01:10:00rather comfortably

01:10:01Newcastle

01:10:022

01:10:02Palace

01:10:030

01:10:03Two goals

01:10:05happened

01:10:05from two

01:10:06set plays

01:10:06and that's

01:10:07what we have

01:10:08to solve

01:10:10the problem

01:10:10conceding

01:10:10goals from

01:10:11set plays

01:10:11I think

01:10:11from our

01:10:12last 60

01:10:12defeats

01:10:13in five

01:10:14games

01:10:15we just

01:10:15conceded

01:10:15goals from

01:10:16set plays

01:10:16and not

01:10:16one

01:10:17just

01:10:17every single

01:10:17one

01:10:18today

01:10:18two

01:10:18four at

01:10:19Leeds

01:10:19two

01:10:20against

01:10:20Man United

01:10:21one

01:10:21against

01:10:21Tottenham

01:10:22two at

01:10:22Strasbourg

01:10:23and then

01:10:23you can't

01:10:25win games

01:10:26this is our

01:10:27responsibility

01:10:28it's my

01:10:30responsibility

01:10:30to give the

01:10:31players better

01:10:31solutions

01:10:32that they can

01:10:33defend it

01:10:33in a better

01:10:33way

01:10:34I think we

01:10:34work really hard

01:10:35at our

01:10:36set pieces

01:10:36and pleased

01:10:37to see

01:10:37them come

01:10:37off

01:10:37and they

01:10:38can win

01:10:38and lose

01:10:38your game

01:10:39so it

01:10:40was a

01:10:40defining

01:10:40factor

01:10:41today

01:10:41when we

01:10:41come in

01:10:41at 0-0

01:10:42we know

01:10:42we could

01:10:42play better

01:10:43I thought

01:10:43we did

01:10:44play better

01:10:44especially

01:10:44with the

01:10:45introduction

01:10:45of the

01:10:46substitutes

01:10:46I thought

01:10:46they all

01:10:47made a

01:10:47difference

01:10:47and finally

01:10:49we had

01:10:49some

01:10:49strength

01:10:50back in

01:10:50the squad

01:10:51today

01:10:51you could

01:10:51see our

01:10:51bench

01:10:52was

01:10:52much

01:10:54stronger

01:10:55and I

01:10:55think that

01:10:56made the

01:10:56difference

01:10:56so back

01:10:57to back

01:10:58wins for

01:10:58Newcastle

01:10:59United

01:10:59and that

01:11:00coincides

01:11:01with two

01:11:02Premier League

01:11:02starts for

01:11:03Johan Wisser

01:11:03he offers

01:11:04something of

01:11:05an Isak-esque

01:11:06quality to

01:11:07Newcastle

01:11:07you see

01:11:07the difference

01:11:08but yeah

01:11:10I agree

01:11:11totally

01:11:11Gabby

01:11:12and there's

01:11:13good link

01:11:13up play

01:11:13with him

01:11:13and Gemara

01:11:14you see

01:11:14in the

01:11:15picture

01:11:15he drops

01:11:15deep

01:11:16but I

01:11:18like to

01:11:18keep an

01:11:18eye on

01:11:19his movement

01:11:19after

01:11:20he drags

01:11:21the centre

01:11:21half out of

01:11:22position

01:11:22but he's

01:11:23not happy

01:11:23we can get

01:11:23involved

01:11:24in link

01:11:24up play

01:11:24watch where

01:11:25he ends

01:11:25up here

01:11:25now

01:11:25he probably

01:25:29moment

01:25:29a big

01:25:29day

01:25:30for Wolves

01:25:30I know

01:25:31you're

01:25:31pleased

01:25:32for your

01:25:32old team

01:25:33there

01:25:33one of

01:25:34your other

01:25:34old teams

01:25:35as a

01:25:35player

01:25:35West Ham

01:25:36in big

01:25:36trouble

01:25:37yeah

01:25:37it seems

01:25:38that way

01:25:38doesn't

01:25:38it

01:25:38I thought

01:25:39that when

01:25:40they appointed

01:25:40Nuno

01:25:40that they

01:25:42would start

01:25:42to move

01:25:42themselves

01:25:43away

01:25:43and we'd

01:25:43see an

01:25:44upturn

01:25:44it hasn't

01:25:45quite

01:25:45gone

01:25:45that way

01:25:46yet

01:25:46I'm sure

01:25:46they'll be

01:25:47doing their

01:25:47best in

01:25:48January

01:25:48to give

01:25:49him some

01:25:49support

01:25:49and try

01:25:50and give

01:25:50themselves

01:25:51an opportunity

01:25:51because that

01:25:52gap just

01:25:52seems to be

01:25:53widening

01:25:53you know

01:25:54Nottingham

01:25:54Forest
