After Saturday’s six matches, another four took place on Sunday, during which, every single team engaged scored at least once, in another thrilling day of Premier League entertainment.

Highlights of these four Premier League 19/20 matches are found below, courtesy of the official UK highlights distributor, Sky Sports Football, who have enabled fans, like me, to embed the official video, to lay them all out in one place. For the fans!

Please note, I don’t run ads in my personal website. If you see ads on the video, these are added by Sky / YouTube – the highlights packages don’t pay for themselves!

So, on seeing this, as well as laughing really hard, I realised that it was very important to keep up with traditions.
