​​​​​​​​Southampton held high-flying West Ham to a goalless draw at St Mary's as the Saints' search for a first Premier League win of the season continued.

In a tight game with few chances, it was new Southampton loanee Armando Broja who twice came close to breaking the deadlock.

However, with nine minutes to go, his low shot hit the foot of the post after a mesmeric dribble, before the forward saw his injury-time header cleared off the line by Declan Rice.

And the visitors' day ended on a sour note in stoppage time when Michail Antonio - the joint top scorer in the Premier League - was sent off for a second bookable offence in an incident which his manager David Moyes later branded as "stupid."

As a result, despite extending their unbeaten run to seven games - the first time they have achieved such a feat in six seasons - the Hammers slip to fifth in the table, while the Saints lie in 14th place.

Cristiano Ronaldo completed a sensational second debut for Manchester United with two goals in a 4-1 win over Newcastle. We collate the
reaction and stats from his stellar return...

For all the hype, this is the story of that boy Ronaldo and his ability with a ball. As Old Trafford revelled in his return, he cut through the noise with two goals and a match-winning turn in Manchester United's 4-1 win over Newcastle.
They have seen better individual performances from him here, but not for a long time, and never more remarkable than this. The expectation had been almost overwhelming but Cristiano Ronaldo did what he always does and now supporters will be wondering what it means for United's prospects.

Instantly, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are back on top, leading the way in the Premier League. With Ronaldo back in the building, back on the pitch, everything feels different.

Now, they have a reason to believe they can stay there.
