EPL Gameweek #28 Review – Liverpool Thrashed by Watford

The English Premier is so well loved that sometimes it’s easy to focus on the football and forget why it hooks far more than the passing fans who love a stepover, a nutmeg or a mazy run. The sheer unpredictability of the results is the USP of the EPL, and there can be no better example of that than what happened on Saturday evening at Vicarage Road.

While other results went the way of the odds, such as the 0-0 stalemate played out by Newcastle and Burnley and the smash-and-grab win executed with predictable precision by Crystal Palace, there were some surprising moments.

Norwich rallied to defeat Leicester City at Carrow Road and grab three points that might yet give them the greatest escape from relegation in Premier League history. West Ham scored three goals to defeat Southampton to boost their own survival hopes. Bournemouth provided a stirring performance to get a point against a Chelsea side still smarting from the lesson Bayern Munich gave them in midweek. Let’s take a look at three more results that provided their fair share of headline moments.
