Premeir League Results and Video-Week Seven

The final score of todays match in EPL.

Arsenal 5-0 Derby
(1st gaol,2nd goal, 3rd goal,4th goal, 5th goal)

Arsenal remain top of the Barclays Premier League after their five-star performance destroyed dire Derby 5-0 at the Emirates Stadium.A hat-trick from Emmanuel Adebayor and goals from Abou Diaby and Cesc Fabregas swept clueless County aside in emphatic style.The Londoners are clearly not missing the departed Thierry Henry as this latest victory preserved their 100% home record and left them undefeated so far this season.

An Emmanuel Adebayor hat-trick helped destroy Derby and keep Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table. Abou Diaby put the Gunners ahead with a vicious drive into the top corner. Then Adebayor showed exquisite control to take down a Cesc Fabregas pass on his chest before rounding Stephen Bywater and slotting a second. Adebayor struck a second-half penalty and Fabregas rifled in a shot before Adebayor again chested the ball down and placed it low beyond Bywater.The final word went to the outstanding Adebayor, who once more demonstrated superb chest control before slipping the ball into the bottom corner.

Liverpool 0-0 Birmingham

Disappointment for Liverpool, who have now drawn and failed to score in their last two Premier League games. In each match Fernando Torres has started from the bench.Birmingham have defended fantastically, they've been comfortable in possession, and their goal keeper Taylor has only had to make one save.

Middlesbrough 2-2 Sunderland

Liam Miller's 89th-minute goal snatched a point for Sunderland in a thrilling 125th Tees-Wear derby. Sunderland took the lead after 75 seconds when Michael Chopra's shot hit Grant Leadbitter and fell kindly for him to slot past Mark Schwarzer. Boro equalised when Gary O'Neil's cross was headed in by Julio Arca and then Stewart Downing drilled past Craig Gordon from 25 yards out. But with time running out Miller fired in a left-foot shot from 20 yards.

Reading 2-1 Wigan

James Harper scored a stunning late winner as Reading secured a much-needed victory over Wigan. The Royals spurned several good chances before taking the lead when Chris Kirkland spilled Kevin Doyle's weak shot and Dave Kitson tapped home.

Wigan hit back and Jason Koumas curled a superb free-kick against the underside of the bar before his corner was headed in by Marcus Bent. But Harper won it, slotting in after a fabulous reverse pass from Kitson. The result which lifts Reading out of the bottom three, was harsh on the visitors given their response to going behind - although Steve Coppell's side could have been four up by the time they took the lead.


Aston villa 3-3 Manchester City
