EPL Weekly Round-Up: United Grab Hard-Earned Win, Newcastle Gun Down Arsenal And Chelsea Lose At Anfield

Manchester United closed the gap on league leaders Chelsea to two points as they struggled to beat Wolves 2-1 at Old Trafford... Workaholic midfielder Ji-Sung Park scored the injury-time winner after United academy striker Sylvan Ebanks-Blake had cancelled out his first-half strike... Owen Hargreaves was a surprise starter in Sir Alex Ferguson's 2000th game as manager but cupid struck again as he limped off after 6 minutes with a hamstring injury... United now play a crucial Manchester derby on Wednesday at Eastlands...

How The Rivals Fared This Week


Newcastle upset Arsenal at the Emirates as Andy Carroll headed home the winner to help the Geordies rise to 5th place in the league...

Fernando Torres struck twice in the first half to help Liverpool beat Chelsea 2-0 at Anfield... It was Liverpool's third consecutive win in the league & finally the Merseysiders lie comfortably in the upper half of the table...

Summer signing Mario Balotelli scored a brace against West Brom at the Hawthorns before his hot-headedness got the better of him & he was sent off in the second half... This means the Italian forward will miss this week's Manchester derby...

The Weekly Verdict

Player Of The Week - Ji-Sung Park

Team Of The Week - Liverpool

That's all Folks!
