A day late but here are the other write-ups
Aston Villa vs. Wolves (Week 3)Midlands club derby that set to be a entertaining fixture straight from the off. It took Aston Villa just over 10 minutes to find the net with Emile Heskey flicking the ball in from 6 yards. Wolves' defense pulled themselves together eventually in the 1st half to keep the score 1-0. In the second half Villa were quick off the mark when Richard Dunn scored a head in the 49th. Wolves had a brief spell on the attack when Stephen Hunt forced a save from Shay Given but Villa were the better side and put a third goal in the 84th minute after Agbonlahor had a pacy run to defeat the defense. Full-time score Aston Villa 3-0 Wolves.
Wigan vs. QPR (Week 3)The game started off with Wigan dominating possession and attacks and inevitably scored in the 29th minute when di Santo volleyed home and found the top corner with a deflected drive . However,this was the end of Wigan's dominance as this caused QPR's attack to go into overdrive and began fluently attacking and was denied by the woodwork twice before half time. QPR continues this momentum to equalise after less than 60 seconds in the second half with Adel Taarabt providing the goal with the aid of the woodwork. QPR continued attacking and Bruno Perone found the goal in the 77th minute when he headed home from Taarbat's corner (which ironically need the woodwork as well). It looked like the match was done and dusted but QPR had one last burst and in the 88th minute when substitute Jay Bothroyd's effort on goal from the edge of the box went in Full-time score Wigan 1-3 QPR
Blackburn vs. Everton (Week 3)The game started off fairly dully as Everton's attack rarely reached the final third but after quarter of an hour they finally learnt how to pass a ball and began to start creating chances. The Blackburn defense realised they were going to concede if they kept this up so decided to see if the boot would fit on the other foot and when Mauro Formica was brought down by Ross Barkley, Junior Hoilett powered the penalty home to give the home side the lead. In the second half, Blackburn continued how they left off and Formica was brought down by Phil Jagielka. Formica got up to take the penalty and the giant American keeper Tim Howard could only watch as the ball went in off the inside off the post. Everton looked to created a comeback when Mikel Areta scored the third penalty of the game in the 68th minute; but it was short lived. Blackburn rounded off the game in the 83rd minute when Fellaini teed himself up to secure the match. Full-time score Blackburn 3-1 Everton
Swansea vs. Sunderland (Week 3) Swansea's hunt for a Premier League continues after a dull performance with Sunderland. The game started off dully and Sunderland raised the tempo of the game a little towards the end of the first half. All I can say is I'm glad I was being paid to watch it not paying to watch it
In the second half Sunderland began where they left off and continued attacking and with the constant pressure Swansea eventually cracked when debutant John O'Shea was left unmarked and nodded the ball home in the 69th minute. Sunderland continued looking for a second but Michel Vorm made a string of saves to deny Asamoah Gyan. Full-time score Swansea 0-1 Sunderland
Liverpool vs. Bolton (Week 3)Jordan Henderson and Charlie Adam scored their first goals for Liverpool in a deserved victory over Bolton. Defender Martin Skrtel netted their other goal, a powerful close-range header from Adam's whipped corner. Henderson opened the scoring by curling a left-footed strike into the top corner of the net, on 10 minutes dead, while Adam found the target with a low shot from 18 yards in the 25th minute. Bolton scored a consolation through Ivan Klasnic's close-range strike in the 71st minute.
In the corresponding fixture last season on New Year's Day, Liverpool were in the midst of a crisis. Roy Hodgson was in charge and the public voted with their feet as just 35,400 turned up - their lowest Premier League attendance for almost seven years. Fernando Torres scored his last goal for Liverpool at Anfield that day, and after a 3-1 defeat at Blackburn four days later, Hodgson was sacked with the Reds 12th in the table, and Kenny Dalglish installed in temporary charge.
Liverpool's final goal came from substitute Skrtel powerfully heading in Adam's whipped corner from close range with just 4 minutes to go Full-time score Liverpool 3-1 Bolton.
