Comments:

League position: 1st On his second debut for Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo had now scored two or more goals in 200 games in his career for club and country (27th for United). Aged 36 years and 218 days, he became the oldest player to score twice in a game in the Premier League since Graham Alexander for Burnley against Hull City in April 2010 (38 years and 182 days). The Red Devils had now scored 44 goals in their last 15 home games in the Premier League. They had now won 22 and lost three of their last 36 games in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 19th With one point so far, Newcastle United had now made their worst four-game start to a season in the Premier League since 2018-19 under manager Rafael Benitez. The Magpies became the eighth team to play 1,000 games in the Premier League (won 369, lost 376). In his 104th appearance in the division, Javier Manquillo scored his second goal in the Premier League; also for Sunderland against Chelsea in May 2017.
