Premier League Roundup: Isak’s Brace Sinks Blades, Klopp-Salah Drama, and VAR Denies Chelsea Win

In a thrilling day of Premier League action, Anel Ahmedhodzic’s early goal gave Sheffield United hope, but Alexander Isak’s brace, along with goals from Bruno Guimaraes and Callum Wilson, sealed a 5-1 victory for Newcastle United at St James’ Park. The defeat marked the Blades’ 25th loss of a dismal season, further solidifying their relegation fate.

Meanwhile, Liverpool’s title hopes took another hit as they were held to a 2-2 draw by West Ham. A touchline row between Mohamed Salah and Jurgen Klopp added to the drama, with Salah coming off the bench to equalize after Michail Antonio’s goal. Despite goals from Andy Robertson and an own goal, Liverpool failed to secure the win.

Chelsea’s comeback at Aston Villa was denied by VAR, ruling out a stoppage-time winner in a 2-2 draw. Mauricio Pochettino’s side fought back from a 2-0 deficit, with goals from Noni Madueke and Conor Gallagher, only to see Axel Disasi’s late header disallowed.

In another dramatic match, Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw by relegation-threatened Burnley, with Zeki Amdouni converting a late penalty. The result leaves United just a point above Newcastle in the battle for European qualification.

Elsewhere, Everton secured a 1-0 win over Brentford, Crystal Palace grabbed a late equalizer against Fulham, and Luton suffered a 2-1 defeat at Wolves. The day’s results have added more twists and turns to an already unpredictable Premier League season.
