Adam Lallana plundered a 95th-minute winner as Liverpool edged Norwich City 5-4 in a dizzying Premier League encounter on Saturday, while Manchester United crashed 1-0 against Southampton. Jamie Vardy ended a seven-game scoring drought as Leicester City beat Stoke City 3-0 to move three points clear at the top of the table above Arsenal, who host Chelsea on Sunday.
Charlie Austin marked his debut with an 87th-minute winner as Southampton silenced Old Trafford, but the game of the day was at Carrow Road, where Liverpool and Norwich played out a Premier League classic. "If you win 5-4 it's a funny story, but it's not that funny. We have to solve it," said Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, who lost his glasses in the touchline celebrations that followed Lallana's winner.
United were booed off after £4 million ($5.7 million, 5.2 million euros) striker Austin gave Southampton victory by converting James Ward-Prowse's right-wing free-kick with a header. Newcastle United remain in the bottom three after losing 2-1 at Watford, who prevailed through goals from Odion Ighalo and Craig Cathcart, with Jamaal Lascelles reducing the arrears. Elsewhere, bottom club Aston Villa drew 0-0 at West Bromwich Albion.
