Goal!
Everton 1-1 Bournemouth
Everton are back in the game through Oumar Niasse. Ben Davies fires the ball into Niasse who is waiting in the box and hammers it in.
Goal!
Stoke 0-3 Chelsea
It's a second for Alvaro Morata who collected the ball, beat Darren Fletcher and Glenn Johnson then calmly finishing.
Goal!
Everton 2-1 Bouremouth
They're back! Ben Davies had a shot blocked which falls to Oumar Niasse who bundles the ball into the net. Goodison is bouncing.
Goal!
Stoke 0-4 Chelsea
It's a hat-trick! Alvaro Morata has his first hat-trick in English football, and judging by today it may well not be his last. Cesra Azpilicueta put the ball on a plate for Morata who scored with ease.
Goal!
Manchester City 4-0 Crystal Palace
Sergio Aguero has his goal, and as captain of my fantasy team I say about time. The Argentine is unmarked in the area and Palace are punished accordingly.
Goal!
Swansea 1-2 Watford
Richarlison beats Fabianski one-on-one by and sends the Watford fans crazy.
Goal!
Manchester City 5-0 Crystal Palace
Fabian Delph gets in on the act, and what a goal too. He picks up the ball on the edge of the box and curls it in off the bar.
Full time
Burnely 0-0 Huddersfield
