Our Premier League Awards highlight the key moments from the weekend, including Manchester City’s victory at Anfield and Dango Ouattara’s performance.
Moment of the Week
The Liverpool versus Manchester City match is usually full of excitement, and while the first half was slow, the second half was anything but dull. Liverpool took the lead thanks to a stunning goal from Dominik Szoboszlai, putting City’s title hopes at risk. However, City fought back, with Bernardo Silva equalizing and Erling Haaland scoring the decisive penalty in stoppage time after a foul on Matheus Nunes. This victory is crucial for City’s season, narrowing the gap with Arsenal to six points and securing their first win at Anfield in nearly 23 years.

Player of the Week
Critics questioned Brentford’s £42.5m investment in Dango Ouattara, but he has proven to be a valuable addition. In a match against Newcastle, he was the standout player, assisting Vitaly Janelt’s equalizer and scoring the winning goal, bringing his tally to five this season. At just 23, Ouattara shows great potential and fits the profile of players Brentford has successfully developed and sold in the past.

Quote of the Week
In an amusing moment, data about Cristian Romero’s red card history caught Thomas Frank by surprise.
Romero has now been sent off six times across all competitions since making his debut for Spurs, the most of any Premier League player within that period.

A week to forget for…
This weekend saw some poor defense in the Premier League. Wolves allowed Chelsea to take advantage by conceding two penalties needlessly at Molineux.
