Man Utd, Leicester lose perfect records; Bournemouth make history
Published in Saudi Press Agency on 23 - 08 - 2015

AlQa'dah 7, 1436, Aug 22, 2015, SPA -- Two of the Premier League's four perfect records bit
the dust on Saturday as Manchester United and Leicester were held to draws, according to dpa.
United could only draw 0-0 at home with Newcastle while Leicester
came from behind to draw 1-1 with Tottenham.
Callum Wilson scored a hat-trick as Bournemouth made history with
their first ever Premier League points in a 4-3 win at West Ham.
Crystal Palace edged out Aston Villa 2-1 to move up to fourth while
the other two matches also ended in draws, with Norwich v Stoke
and Sunderland v Swansea both finishing 1-1.
Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney had the ball in the
Newcastle net inside six minutes but it was ruled out for offside.
Aleksandr Mitrovic hit the woodwork for Newcastle but United were
denied by several good saves from Tim Krul and could have won it late on when Chris Smalling hit the post.
Leicester joined United on seven points at the top after they drew
1-1 with Tottenham.
Riyad Mahrez, with his fourth goal of the season, equalized directly
after Dele Alli had given Spurs an 81st minute lead.
Bournemouth were hanging on at the end but claimed a 4-3 win at West
Ham to take their first ever Premier League points.
Wilson put them 2-0 up with two goals inside 28 minutes and though a
Mark Noble penalty and a Cheikhou Kouyate goal made it 2-2, Mark Pugh
and then a Wilson penalty restored Bournemouth's two-goal advantage.
But a Modibo Maiga strike pulled one back for West Ham and the
visitors survived a few goalmouth scrambles at the end to claim
victory.
Palace left it late to see off Villa 2-1, Bakary Sako winning it
three minutes from time after Scott Dann's header had been wiped out
by a Pape Souare own goal.
Norwich threw the kitchen sink at Stoke but the visitors held on for
a 1-1 draw thanks to a string of outstanding saves from Jack Butland.
Mame Biram Diouf headed Stoke in front but Russell Martin found the
equalizer for the hosts.
Swansea remain unbeaten after a 1-1 draw at Sunderland, Jermain Defoe
earning a point for the home side after cancelling out Bafetimbi
Gomis' opener.
