Live scoreboard

You can follow all the goals in the EFL, and around Europe, on our live scores page. A few bits of note:

Nathan Tellas has put the Championship leaders Burnley 1-0 up at home to Wigan, who are down to 10 men.

Sheffield United are being held at home by Luyon, but third-placed Middlesbrough are a goal down at Swansea

The League One leaders Sheffield Wednesday are a goal up at Portsmouth through Josh Windass.

Leyton Orient, top of League Two, aren’t playing, but Stevenage – who started the day in third – are 3-1 up at home to Walsall.

Leicester 1-2 Chelsea

Ooh hoo hoo. I’ve just seen Kai Havertz’s goal and it is a work of art. This is the Dennis Bergkamp goal that Paul Merson compared it to on Sky Sports. Havertz’s goal has the same velvet erotica, yet his might be even better because he had less space to work with than Bergkamp.

Half time

These are the half-time scores in the Premier League. The match at the King Power Stadium sounds like a minor classic.

Bournemouth 1-0 Liverpool (FT)

Everton 1-0 Brentford

Leeds 1-1 Brighton

Leicester 1-2 Chelsea

Tottenham 2-0 Nottm Forest

GOAL! Leicester 1-2 Chelsea (Havertz 45+6)

Kai Havertz has put Chelsea back ahead with a gorgeous goal, a cushioned lob on the volley from Enzo Fernandez’s scooped pass. “Goal of the season, Bergkampesque,” coos Paul Merson on Sky.

Leicester 1-1 Chelsea It’s all happening at the King Power Stadium. Chelsea survive a penalty appeal when the ball hits Fofana’s elbow, then Amartey studs Havertz in the chest and isn’t punished. According to Paul Merson on Sky, both Amartey and Ricardo Pereira could have walked in the first half.

NO GOAL! Everton 1-0 Brentford

The ball hit Gray’s arm, so the goal has been disallowed. Next!

GOAL? Everton 2-0 Brentford (Gray 42)

Ethan Pinnock’s attempted clearance hits Demarai Gray and flies into the net, but did it hit his arm?

GOAL! Leeds 1-1 Brighton (Bamford 40)

Patrick Bamford has equalised for Leeds with a deflected shot that looped over Jason Steele.

European roundup: Real Madrid 3-1 Espanyol

GOAL! Leicester 1-1 Chelsea (Daka 39)

This sounds like a helluva game. Joao Felix, who thought he’d put Chelsea 2-0 up a moment ago, has now contributed to Leicester’s equaliser. He lost the ball in a dangerous area, and Patson Daka – making his first Premier League start of 2023 – welted the ball past Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Everton 1-0 Brentford

Leeds 0-1 Brighton

Leicester 0-1 Chelsea

Tottenham 2-0 Nottm Forest

NO GOAL! Leicester 0-1 Chelsea

Joao Felix was offside, so a beautiful goal is consigned to the dustbin.

GOAL! Spurs 2-0 Nottm Forest (Kane 35 pen)

Two for Spurs, two for Harry Kane. This came from the penalty spot after Richarlison, who is having a fine game, was brought down by Joe Worrall.

Potter out! Joao Felix has finished off a wonderful move to double Chelsea’s lead, although there’s a check for offside.

Brighton are ahead at Elland Road. Alexis Mac Allister, who is having the time of his 24-year-old life, has put them ahead from Kaoru Mitoma’s header.

Tottenham 1-0 Nottm Forest “Hey Rob, why do you think Conte is such an awful manager?” says Yash Gupta. “Especially considering Tottenham Hotspur and its fans had nothing to do with his hair at all in the past.”

I think he’s one of the best managers in the world, if you’re into the whole results thing.

Leicester 0-1 Chelsea And now Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has hit the bar at the other end after a deflection off Kalidou Koulibaly.

Leicester 0-1 Chelsea Joao Felix has hit the post for Chelsea, who lead 1-0 in an open game at the King Power Stadium. And yes, since you asked, Gary Lineker is in attendance. Apparently he used to play football for Leicester.

Bundesliga

Bayern Munich were 1-0 down at home to Augsburg. It’s now half-time, and they have edged their way into a 4-1 lead. Joao Cancelo, Benjamin Pavard (2) and Leroy Sane got the goals.

GOAL! Spurs 1-0 Nottm Forest (Kane 19)

Harry Kane plants a header back across Keylor Navas from Pedro Porro’s cross, and this time it counts.

Tottenham 0-0 Nottm Forest

“I already feel quasi-bludgeoned by so many uses of ‘as it stands’ over the last few days but know that there are many more to come,” weeps Steven Hughes. “‘Currently’; ‘at present’; ‘as it is now’; ‘at this time’; ‘where we are now’ could all be used instead or as part of a rotating squad of descriptions but they won’t. Yours, with blood coming from my nose and ears.”

Surely you mean ‘blood coming from my nose and ears the noo’.

Leicester 0-1 Chelsea Daniel Amartey has missed an open goal. “He can’t miss!” says Paul Merson on Sky. “He’s cleared it!”

GOAL! Leicester 0-1 Chelsea (Chilwell 12)

Ben Chilwell has volleyed Chelsea into the lead against his old club, and we have a perfect excuse to link to this piece from Jacob Steinberg.

Spurs 0-0 Nottm Forest I don’t think they did draw the lines on the wrong player for Richarlison’s goal, although there are plenty of people who still think it wasn’t offside.

Everton 1-0 Brentford I’ve just had a vision of Dwight McNeil’s goal and it was a beauty, arrowed into the far corner from the edge of the area after a quick Everton break.

Match report: Hearts 0-3 Celtic

NO GOAL! Spurs 0-0 Nottm Forest

Erm, about that Richarlison goal. It’s been disallowed for offside… but there is a suggestion that the VAR team may have drawn the line against the wrong player again.

WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THIS COUNTRY, WE CAN’T EVEN TIE OUR OWN SHOELACES ANYMORE.

Leicester 0-0 Chelsea Joao Felix is limping heavily after a poor tackle from Ricardo Pereira. On Sky Sports, Paul Merson says it could easily have been a red card. He wasn’t even booked.
