English Premier League: Relegation rivals Leicester and Everton draw 2-2

Leicester and Everton remained in serious relegation danger in the English Premier League after their thrilling 2-2 draw. Alex Iwobi's 54th-minute volley on Monday secured a point for Everton, which stayed in next-to-last place with four matches left to play as the team bids to extend its 69-year stay in the top division. Leicester, the league champion only seven years ago, moved out of the bottom three but only on goal difference ahead of Leeds and Nottingham Forest, with all three teams a point clear of Everton. Forest dropped into the relegation zone. Dominic Calvert-Lewin converted a penalty he won himself after getting barged in the back by Timothy Castagne to put Everton ahead in the 15th minute. Caglar Soyuncu equalized in the 22nd, hooking in a finish as he slipped after fellow center back Wout Faes headed the ball back across the face of goal. Leicester took the lead for the first time in the 33rd when James Maddison slipped in Jamie Vardy, who ran behind Everton's defens

English Premier League: Landmark goals for Haaland, Kane; Man City on top

Erling Haaland's goals are propelling Manchester City toward a treble of trophies. Harry Kane, meanwhile, seems powerless to stop Tottenham's slide. English soccer's two most prolific strikers both scored landmark goals on Sunday. But while Haaland's 50th in all competitions this season helped City to go top of the table, Kane's 208th goal in the Premier League could not prevent Spurs from a third loss in four games, albeit in the most dramatic fashion in a 4-3 defeat to Liverpool. Kane is now tied with Wayne Rooney as the Premier League's second-highest scorer of all time, behind only Alan Shearer on 260. Trophies, however, continue to elude Kane, even in a season when he has become the all-time record scorer for England and Tottenham. It is a different story for Haaland, who seems destined to end his first year at City with both silverware and individual honors. The Norwegian's third minute penalty in City's 2-1 win at Fulham saw him score his 34th Premier League goal of the s

Manchester United beats Leicester 1-0 for 3rd straight win in EPL

Manchester United secured its third straight win in the Premier League by beating Leicester 1-0, with Cristiano Ronaldo again only making a late appearance off the bench. Jadon Sancho finished off a flowing move on the break for the only goal of the game in the 23rd minute as United's players backed up victories over Liverpool and Southampton to put their early-season crisis behind them. It is another step forward," United manager Erik ten Hag said. It was only 10 days ago that United went into its home game against Liverpool on the back of back-to-back defeats to open the season with doubts swirling around the suitability of Ten Hag its recently hired coach from Ajax and his new signings. Those doubts have pretty much disappeared, with United playing with more confidence and the additions of Casemiro a second-half substitute like Ronaldo and Antony who wasn't available after completing his move from Ajax on Thursday strengthening the team.
