Arsenal substitutes Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard pounced in the final stages to secure a 2-0 victory at Athletic Bilbao in their Champions League opener on Tuesday.Last season's beaten semi-finalists got off to a winning start in the Basque country as they shaded a tight game at the San Mames stadium in the first of eight group matches.Mikel Arteta's side, chasing a first major trophy since 2020 and their first ever Champions League win, ground out their victory with a typically sturdy defensive display and their late goals.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Martinelli scored in the 72nd minute, 36 seconds after coming off the bench, before Trossard added a second after 87 minutes, each setting the other up.Athletic, back in the competition for the first time in 11 years, were on top in the early stages, buoyed by boisterous home support.Their coach Ernesto Valverde lined up with an entire team of players making their Champions League debut, including talisman striker Inaki Williams but not his injured brother Nico Williams.Arsenal started with four Spaniards, including two Basque midfielders in Mikel Merino and Martin Zubimendi, who used to play for Athletic's rivals Real Sociedad.The Gunners, missing several regulars including Bukayo Saka, began to turn the tide through the movement of Viktor Gyokeres and Noni Madueke's persistence on the right wing.Swedish striker Gyokeres had an effort saved by Unai Simon and then headed narrowly wide of the post after reaching a dangerous cross by Jurrien Timber.Alejandro Berenguer pulled a shot wide of the far post with Athletic's first real chance shortly before the break.Gyokeres, sporting a bandage after a clash of heads left him bleeding, nodded Declan Rice's free-kick wide when well placed.Williams was denied by David Raya and Merino headed straight at Simon at the other end as the match stepped up a gear.Arteta brought on Martinelli for the ineffective Eberechi Eze and immediately found the goal he craved as the Gunners countered at pace.Martinelli ran on to Trossard's pass, took a fine touch to leave Andoni Gorosabel trailing in his wake and then fired under Simon.The Brazilian was involved again in the second, cutting the ball back for Trossard, who beat Simon with the help of a deflection.Arsenal reinforced heavily in the summer to increase their squad depth, particularly in attack, and it paid dividends here.Arteta brought on two more new arrivals in Christian Norgaard and Piero Hincapie for their debuts late on.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has revealed Alexander Isak could make his highly anticipated debut in Wednesday's Champions League clash against Atletico Madrid.Isak joined the Premier League champions in a British-record £125 million ($169 million) move from Newcastle on transfer deadline day.The 25-year-old did not feature in Sunday's 1-0 win at Burnley -- Liverpool's first match since his blockbuster transfer -- because he is still short of full fitness after missing much of the pre-season.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Isak had trained alone in a bid to force through his switch, leaving him in need of extra work to get up to speed."Definitely a chance because he's in the squad, so then there's a chance to play. I would usually say 99.9 percent sure, but I can say 100 percent sure he will not play 90 minutes," Slot told reporters on Tuesday.Asked if there was a chance of Isak starting at Anfield, Slot said: "The only thing we're sure of is he will not play 90. "He's part of the squad, so it's already a Champions League game to look forward to, but if people look forward to his playing time, that could mean that could happen tomorrow as well."Isak's goals helped Newcastle end their 56-year trophy drought when they defeated Liverpool in the League Cup final last season, while the Magpies also qualified for the Champions League thanks in large part to the Swede's prolific form.But his only appearance this season came for Sweden in an 18-minute substitute cameo in a 2-0 defeat against Kosovo on September 8.Slot said getting fit was the striker's biggest challenge."He doesn't have to prove to anyone that he's good enough to play in the Premier League, because that's what he's proven already at Newcastle," said the Dutchman."So the main challenge he has is to become so fit that he's first of all ready to do what he did last season."<h3>'Above expectations'</h3>The spotlight will be firmly fixed on Isak, which could be a blessing for Liverpool playmaker Florian Wirtz.Prior to Isak's arrival, the German was briefly Liverpool's club-record signing after his summer move from Bayer Leverkusen for an initial £100 million.Wirtz has struggled to make an impact, leading to suggestions the hefty price tag is weighing on him.Slot was quick to defend the 22-year-old, saying: "There's so much focus on our new signings. He's been part of a team that is on top of the league, that won four games."Yes, he hasn't scored four goals or 12 assists in the first four games, but for me that's down to the quality we've faced, and he's part of a team that's number one in the league at the moment."Liverpool's off-season was dominated by the death of forward Diogo Jota in a car crash in July, which Slot acknowledged had had a profound impact on the club. Yet despite that trauma and a significant rebuild at the cost of nearly £450 million ($614 million), they are top of the Premier League with four wins in four games."It's only a compliment that people tell everyone that we've spent so much because that tells you the players we've brought in are seen as very good players," Slot said.He added that the team were performing "far above" his expectations."For us to be on 12 points now is so much more than I expected, especially after we've had so many changes in the group as well," he said.

Paris Saint-Germain's Khvicha Kvaratskhelia remains a doubt for the holders' midweek Champions League game at home against Atlanta with the forward training separately from his teammates on Tuesday.The 24-year-old Georgian injured himself in Sunday's 2-0 win over Lens but has not been included in the club's official medical update, meaning his presence on Wednesday remains possible, according to a source close to the squad. The reigning European champions' sporting advisor, Luis Campos, had expressed his "optimism" about the Georgian's participation on Wednesday.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Meanwhile, Ballon d'Or favourite Ousmane Dembele and Desire Doue, injured playing for France during the international break, are "continuing their treatment," the club said, while Lucas Beraldo, injured against Lens "remains in treatment due to a sprained ankle".

Barcelona will host Getafe in La Liga at their tiny Johan Cruyff training ground stadium on Sunday as they work to obtain permits to reopen their revamped Camp Nou home.The Spanish champions thrashed Valencia 6-0 at the Johan Cruyff on Sunday in their first home match of the season after playing away for three consecutive games."The club continues to work intensely to obtain the administrative permits required for the opening of the Spotify Camp Nou in the coming weeks," said Barca in a statement Tuesday.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>The Catalan giants intend to partially reopen Camp Nou with a reduced capacity as rebuilding work continues at the stadium, which is due to be completed in 2026.The Johan Cruyff stadium, where Barca's women's team regularly plays, holds around 6,000 spectators.Barcelona closed the Camp Nou for building work at the end of the 2022/23 season, saying they would partially reopen the stadium in November 2024.They played their home matches at the Olympic stadium on the city's Montjuic hill until the end of last season, as the return date was repeatedly pushed back because of delays in construction and problems obtaining licenses.Barcelona are estimated to be paying 1.5 billion euros ($1.75 billion) for the Camp Nou rebuild.

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim insisted he will not change his formation or tactics but said he is suffering more than the club's supporters after a 3-0 derby defeat to Manchester City on Sunday.The Red Devils have taken just four points from their opening four Premier League games and been dumped out of the League Cup by fourth-tier Grimsby.Since Amorim took charge in November last year, United have won just eight of 31 Premier League games, finishing 15th in the table last season.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>However, the Portuguese bristled when asked whether he has to rethink his preferred 3-4-3 system."I understand that and I accept it. It's not a record that you should have in Manchester United," said Amorim."I'm not going to change. When I want to change my philosophy, I will change. If not, you have to change the men (players).... I play my way and I'm going to play my way until I want to change."The former Sporting Lisbon boss has so far received steadfast support from the United hierarchy.But after being backed with a £200-million ($271 million) investment in a new forward line, time is running out for the 40-year-old to show results.United have scored just four goals in the Premier League so far this season, two of which were own-goals by the opposition and one from the penalty spot.Of the new signings, Matheus Cunha was sidelined by injury against City, but £74 million striker Benjamin Sesko was ineffectual on his first start."My message is that I'm going to give everything. I will do everything, always thinking about what is best for the club," Amorim added on his future."Until I'm here, I will do my best. I really want to win games. I'm suffering more than them (the fans)."United went into the derby above City in the table for the first time in five years.Pep Guardiola's men had shown their frailties in back-to-back defeats to Tottenham and Brighton before the international break.City remain six points behind leaders Liverpool, but Guardiola is hoping the good feeling created by a derby win can be a launching pad for their season."I would love it to (be the start of a good run) but I would say we started last season winning four games in a row and look how we struggled in October, November, December."We have to improve, but that's true that winning games, especially in the derby, you see the faces of our fans, the joy, the happiness after the game, always it helps."

Victor Boniface came off the bench late to set up a Justin Njinmah goal on debut as Werder Bremen cantered to a 4-0 victory at Borussia Monchengladbach in the Bundesliga on Sunday. Bremen were dominant against the hapless hosts, taking a two-goal lead at half-time thanks to goals from Samuel Mbangula and Jens Stage. Romano Schmid added a second-half penalty and Boniface, signed on a season-long loan from Bayer Leverkusen, came off the bench with 75 minutes played. <div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>The Nigerian threaded a brilliant pass through a crowded penalty box, allowing Njinmah to score as Bremen won their first match of the campaign. Gladbach are still yet to score this season in three matches.

A Bradley Barcola brace earned Paris Saint-Germain a 2-0 win over Lens in Ligue 1 on Sunday.The result sent PSG back to the top of the table as the reigning champions secured their fourth win from four outings this term.However, the match threw up further injury headaches for coach Luis Enrique ahead of the start of PSG's Champions League defence next week, with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Lee Kang-in and Lucas Beraldo all limping off.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>The trio joined star attackers Ousmane Dembele and Desire Doue on the treatment table, after the pair picked up knocks while on France duty last week."Unfortunately, Kvara was tackled in the first half and couldn't continue. For Kang-in it doesn't look too serious, but Beraldo seems to be worse off," Luis Enrique told Bein Sports.However, the Spaniard insisted that the club's lengthening sick list did not constitute a crisis."It happens to everyone. It's a bit of a difficult time for us because we have injured players. We have to wait for the (test) results," he said, before adding that his charges have "the ability to adapt and respond as a team".Barcola sent PSG ahead on the quarter-hour with an elegant curling finish from 20 yards.The first casualty for the hosts came in the form of star winger Kvaratskhelia, who was forced off 30 minutes in with a calf issue, casting a doubt over his presence for Wednesday's European clash with Atalanta.Barcola doubled PSG's lead six minutes after half-time when he drove in from the left before arrowing a right-footed finish from distance past the dive of goalkeeper Robin Risser.PSG's injury woes accumulated in the second period when first midfielder Lee, then defender Beraldo had to be replaced.

Erling Haaland struck twice as Manchester City inflicted another damaging defeat on Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim with a comprehensive 3-0 win on Sunday.Phil Foden opened the scoring before Haaland took centre stage with a second-half double, either side of an incredible miss from the Norwegian, as City bounced back from two consecutive Premier League defeats.United went into a derby ahead of City in the Premier League table for the first time in five years.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>But that owed more to City's early season struggles than signs of progress for Amorim's men, who have taken just four points from their opening four games and been dumped out of the League Cup by fourth-tier Grimsby."In these kind of games we need to be perfect and in this game we were not perfect," said Amorim."The frustration is always the same because with the amount of chances (we create), we need to score goals."To cap a fine City display, goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma marked his debut with a stunning save from Bryan Mbeumo to deny United a foothold in the game at 2-0.City remain six points adrift of leaders Liverpool, but victory is a huge confidence boost for Pep Guardiola's side ahead of facing Serie A champions Napoli and Premier League title rivals Arsenal next week."We needed this," said Haaland. "You always want to win the derby but you could feel it extra today."I'm so relieved, so happy we managed to do it altogether. We have to keep going."Before kick-off, both sets of fans put rivalry aside to pay tribute to boxing legend Ricky Hatton, who died on Sunday at the age of 46.A massive City fan, Hatton's face was displayed on big screens during a minute's applause.Foden, a fellow boyhood City supporter, said before kick-off that the news gave the home side extra motivation to win in Hatton's honour.And the England international was central to a much-needed victory after a difficult start to the campaign for him personally and City as a whole.Foden was the Premier League player of the season in the 2023-24 campaign, but his form dipped drastically last season.Fitness issues meant he had not started a game this season until Sunday, but he took just 18 minutes to make his mark.United's defence allowed Jeremy Doku to bundle his way to the by-line and the Belgian's cross picked out Foden, completely unmarked, to head in the opening goal.<h3>Donnarumma decisive</h3>Doku was the creator once more when City doubled their lead on 53 minutes.Haaland showed his power, pace and incredible precision to dink the ball over the onrushing Altay Bayindir.City's number nine went from the sublime to the ridiculous moments later when he missed an open goal with the chance to double his tally.United were architects of their own danger as Matthijs de Ligt's poor pass set up a City counter-attack.Tijjani Reijnders's dummy set Haaland clear on goal, but after rounding Bayindir, he could only hit the post on the stretch.Moments later, Donnarumma produced his moment of magic to prevent what could have been a turning point.Mbeumo's sweetly-struck volley was arrowing into the bottom corner until the Italian reached out a giant right hand to turn it behind.What could have been 2-1 was soon 3-0 thanks to another United gift.Harry Maguire this time gave away possession to Bernardo Silva, who set Haaland racing away into the vacant United half and he kept his cool to score for the eighth time in nine appearances against United.City fans goaded Amorim with chants of "sacked in the morning" in the closing stages.The Portuguese is not in danger of an immediate dismissal, but his Premier League record now reads a dismal eight wins in 31 games.

</blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></figure>Liverpool are the first side in Premier League history to win four consecutive games with winning goals scored in the final 10 minutes or later -- with Sunday's coming in the 95th minute.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>They are three points clear of Arsenal, who went top of the table on Saturday with a 3-0 win against Nottingham Forest.Arne Slot's Liverpool, chasing a record 21st English league title, have not been at their best this season but have found a way to win all four of their matches.The Dutchman said his team had struggled to create clear-cut chances against a side who defended deep.They had 27 shots at Turf Moor but just four of those were on target."We kept playing, we kept moving the ball around," Slot told Sky Sports. "They got more and more tired which is normal when you have to defend for 80 percent of time and then we got as many attackers on as possible."Difficult game but all of them are in the Premier League. A clean sheet and from open play we hardly concede a chance. That's a good thing."It is normal and a lot of new players, we will get better and better but in the meantime we have 12 points."<h3>Isak absent</h3>Slot left new signing Alexander Isak out of his squad after warning he would ease the forward into action gradually.But he could still field an impressive attacking line-up including Salah, Cody Gakpo, Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike.Liverpool dominated from the start while Burnley sought to break quickly on the rare occasions when they won possession.Liverpool centre-back Ibrahima Konate headed over from close range and Ekitike flicked a shot wide of the far post from a narrow angle.But their one shot on target in the first half came from Andy Robertson soon after he had replaced Milos Kerkez in the 38th minute.The Hungary international had been booked for diving for a penalty, and Slot removed him from the fray after another foul to avoid a potential sending-off.Ryan Gravenberch flashed a volley wide early in the second half and goalkeeper Martin Dubravka kept out a long-range effort from Dominik Szoboszlai.Slot made his first attacking change in the 72nd minute, bringing on Federico Chiesa for Ekitike.The move almost paid immediate dividends but the Italian international failed to direct his header from Robertson's cross on target.Burnley were reduced to ten men as Lesley Ugochukwu was shown a second yellow card for bringing down Wirtz on the edge of the box in the 84th minute.Slot threw on Jeremie Frimpong and Rio Ngumoha for Wirtz and Konate in a last-ditch bid for all three points.Their relentless pressure finally paid off when Mejbri handled Frimpong's cross in the penalty area and referee Michael Oliver pointed to the spot.Salah stepped up and blasted the ball into the net, ensuring a fourth win from four matches.Burnley, promoted back to the Premier League in April, have one win and three defeats from their first four matches of the season.

Harry Kane scored in each half as Bayern Munich piled the pain on old foe Hamburg in a 5-0 home win on Saturday. Kane brought his Bayern tally to 93 goals in 101 games while Serge Gnabry, Luis Diaz and Aleksandar Pavlovic also scored. Alongside Borussia Dortmund as the only Bundesliga sides to win the European Cup, Bayern and Hamburg have taken different paths since dominating German football in the 1980s. <div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Bayern have won 12 of the past 13 league titles while Hamburg were promoted last season after seven seasons in the second division. Gnabry hammered the ball into the roof of the net just three minutes in. Bayern junior Pavlovic finished off a team move six minutes later. Kane converted a penalty awarded for handball with 26 minutes played. Diaz made it four three minutes later, his fourth goal since joining Bayern in the summer. Nicolas Jackson came on at half-time, making his debut after moving to Bayern on loan from Chelsea in the summer. Bayern open their Champions League campaign at home against Chelsea on Wednesday. The England captain then started and finished off his own move to score Bayern's fifth and final goal in the 62nd minute. Since Hamburg's last win in Munich in 2007, Bayern have won 16 and drawn three of their home matches in the series, scoring 76 goals to Hamburg's seven, a run which includes two 8-0 wins and a 9-2 victory. Bayern moved atop the table as the only side with three wins from three.

Tottenham ran riot in the second half of their 3-0 win over 10-man West Ham on Saturday as the pressure mounted on under-fire boss Graham Potter.Thomas Frank's side took the lead through Pape Sarr's header soon after the interval at the London Stadium.West Ham midfielder Tomas Soucek was sent off for a studs-up foul on Joao Palhinha seven minutes after Sarr's opener.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Lucas Bergvall made sure Tottenham capitalised on Soucek's dismissal as he bagged Tottenham's second goal and provided the assist for Micky van de Ven to seal the points in a one-sided London derby.Tottenham climbed to second in the Premier League, their third win in four games erasing the bitter taste of a surprise defeat against Bournemouth before the international break.It was the ideal preparation for Tottenham's Champions League campaign, which starts with a visit from Villarreal on Tuesday."We had some good crosses into the box, dominated and kept West Ham hemmed in," Frank said."We scored a brilliant goal from a corner. The red card helps, of course, but I felt we were dominant in the game."In stark contrast to Tottenham's early-season success, West Ham are languishing in the relegation zone after a third defeat in four matches.Potter and his team were booed off at the final whistle as the few fans who remained in the stadium showed their displeasure."The scoreline is a difficult one for us. We made a mistake early in the second half and the game gets away from us after the red card," Potter said."It was difficult for the players, we're at home, we've got our pride and don't want to make it worse."I understand the fans' reaction because the scoreline is the scoreline. I understand why people are upset."The Hammers have conceded 11 goals in the league, as well as crashing out of the League Cup against Wolves to leave Potter fighting to avoid the sack.Hired in January after Julen Lopetegui's sacking, Potter has struggled to make an impact in east London.The former Chelsea and Brighton boss desperately needs a winning run to stave off the axe, starting with next weekend's game against Crystal Palace."We are a new team and we have to stick together and focus on the things we've done well and see where we can improve," Potter said.<h3>Soucek sees red</h3>West Ham midfielder Lucas Paqueta squandered a golden opportunity when he dragged his shot wide in the opening moments.Hammers captain Jarrod Bowen lashed just wide after a flowing move early in the second half.But it was Tottenham who took the lead from their first shot on target in the 47th minute.Sarr was left unmarked at the far post to meet Xavi Simons' corner with a powerful header into the roof of the net.It was the fifth goal in four games that West Ham had conceded from a set-piece this season.Guglielmo Vicario preserved Tottenham's lead moments later, plunging to his right to keep out Bowen's drive from just inside the area.Soucek saw red in the 54th minute, rashly crunching into Palhinha with his raised boot in an ugly challenge that left the midfielder writhing in pain.Just nine seconds after Soucek's dismissal, Bergvall doubled Tottenham's lead with his first goal this season.Romero sent a long pass arcing over the Tottenham defence and the Swedish midfielder rose highest to loop a superb header beyond Mads Hermansen.Bergvall was Tottenham's youngest scorer in the Premier League since Dele Alli 10 years ago.The 19-year-old wasn't finished. His buccaneering run unhinged the West Ham defence in the 64th minute, with Van de Ven applying the finishing touch as he drilled into the far corner from 10 yards.

Juventus sit level on points with Napoli at the top of Serie A on Saturday after a thrilling 4-3 win with Inter Milan as both teams continued their perfect starts to the new season with the Champions League set to begin.A stunning strike in stoppage time of the 'Derby of Italy' from teenage substitute Vasilije Adzic put Juve on nine points from their first three matches, behind on goal difference from Napoli who cruised to a 3-1 win at Fiorentina with new boy Rasmus Hojlund on the scoresheet.Midfielder Adzic, who made his debut for Montenegro in June, had come on for Teun Koopmeiners not long before Khephren Thuram levelled the scores at three each in the 83rd minute and let fly with a rocket of a shot which squirmed through Inter goalkeeper Yann Sommer's fingers.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div><figure class="article-segment--embed"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Derby d'Italia. 3-3. 92nd minute. Step up, Vasilije Adžić! 🤯<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/JuveInter?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#JuveInter</a> <a href="https://t.co/lBTiwkbZiw">pic.twitter.com/lBTiwkbZiw</a>— Lega Serie A (@SerieA_EN) <a href="https://twitter.com/SerieA_EN/status/1967121136787116112?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 14, 2025</a>
</blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></figure>"What can I say, it's a dream to play and score such a hugely important goal for Juve," said Adzic."I can only thank the coach and the staff for showing faith in me and bringing me on in such a big game."Adzic's strike overshadowed the contribution from France's Thuram brothers who netted for each team.Marcus Thuram headed Inter deservedly 3-2 ahead in the 76th minute after Hakan Calhanoglu twice drew the away team level with superb long-range strikes of his own.Under the gaze of their iconic father Lilian Thuram, who watched on from the Allianz Stadium stands, Khephren Thuram then nodded Juve level and set the stage for Adzic's powerful strike, which have the Turin giants a huge boost ahead of Tuesday's visit of Borussia Dortmund."It was a crazy match, loads of goals and end-to-end, and we're really happy to get a win against such a good team that has really great players," said Juventus coach Igor Tudor.Inter are stuck on three points after a second straight defeat under novice coach Cristian Chivu, who replaced Simone Inzaghi in the summer even though his only previous elite coaching experience was a handful of matches in charge of Parma last season.Chivu's team spent large chunks of the match dictating the play in what is traditionally the biggest fixture of Inter's season -- even more important than the Milan derby."You have to look at the performance and the fact that we came here and played with personality, try to win the match and not settle for any other result," said Chivu, whose team next travel to Ajax. <h3>Hojlund strikes</h3>Napoli warmed up for their clash at Manchester City on Thursday with a powerful display in Florence which strengthened their status as the team to beat in Italy.The champions were two goals ahead within 14 minutes in Florence, with Kevin De Bruyne smashing home a penalty and Hojlund expertly guiding home from Leonardo Spinazzola's pass on his debut.Hojlund looked a completely different player to the one who flopped at Manchester United as Napoli threatened to run riot amid the jeers of an unhappy home crowd.And Napoli were assured of the win five minutes after half-time when Andre-Frank Anguissa, who won the penalty De Bruyne scored ahead of his return to Manchester, pushed a flick-on at a corner back into the path of Beukema who tapped in from close range.Luca Ranieri salvaged some pride for Fiorentina in the 79th minute, too late for the hosts to mount a comeback."It's a very important win today, we won the first three now and want to continue like this," said Hojlund to Sky. "We have a very important game in the Champions League coming up, I am very happy to be with this incredible team."

Kylian Mbappe was at his brilliant best as Real Madrid showed grit to claim a 2-1 win at Real Sociedad in La Liga on Saturday, despite playing for an hour with 10 men after Dean Huijsen's red card.Mbappe and Arda Guler's first-half goals were enough for Los Blancos to maintain their 100 percent record, with Mikel Oyarzabal pulling one back for the hosts from the penalty spot.Xabi Alonso's side top the table on 12 points from four games, three ahead of second-placed Athletic Bilbao after they fell 1-0 against Alaves to tarnish their own perfect start.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Later Saturday Atletico Madrid face Villarreal, while champions Barcelona host Valencia on Sunday.Huijsen was dismissed for pulling down Oyarzabal as he ran through on goal with Madrid leading 1-0 through Mbappe's opener, and the Frenchman set up Guler for the second."The red card changed the game a bit but we weren't afraid, we scored the second... we suffered as a team, but we go home with the three points," Mbappe told Real Madrid TV."The start to the season has been very good, and mine too, but the season is nine months, 11 with a World Cup, so I have to play well for a lot more time (to come)."Madrid lined up with Dani Carvajal at right-back, leaving Trent Alexander-Arnold on the bench, while Fede Valverde was rested and Dani Ceballos came in.Guler had a goal disallowed for offside early on as Los Blancos started strongly, with Real Sociedad still looking for their first win under new coach Sergio Francisco.Mbappe broke the deadlock after 12 minutes when he sprinted on to a loose back-pass, beating two defenders for pace before producing a clinical finish for his fourth league goal this season.Madrid's task grew harder when Spanish centre-back Huijsen, signed from Bournemouth this summer, was dismissed for pulling back Oyarzabal as he ran towards goal."For me it was a yellow card, (Militao) was close and the ball was not under control, and seeing the replay didn't change my mind," Alonso said."I asked about it, (the referee) explained it and it didn't convince me."Despite their numerical disadvantage Guler doubled Madrid's lead before the break with a neat finish after a superb run from French superstar Mbappe, who teed him up after floating inside from the left.The hosts improved in the second half and won a penalty after a Carvajal handball, which Oyarzabal dispatched. However the Basque side did not have enough to take anything from the game, with Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois twice denying Oyarzabal.Alonso warned Madrid's stars ahead of the match they would be picked on merit and after a frustrating afternoon Vinicius Junior was replaced by Fran Garcia with over 20 minutes remaining, as the coach tried to shut up shop against his former playing side.Madrid held on through six minutes of stoppage time to secure a win which ensures they will be sole leaders as Ernesto Valverde's Athletic stumbled in a Basque derby.Alejandro Berenguer's own goal, deflecting Denis Suarez's cross into his own net, split the teams at San Mames as hosts Athletic dominated but could not avoid defeat.

Serhou Guirassy scored for the eighth straight league match and Maximilian Beier added another as Borussia Dortmund won 2-0 at 10-man Heidenheim on Saturday.Heidenheim's Budu Zivzivadze received a red card 21 minutes in when he hit Dortmund's Felix Nmecha with a studs-up challenge just below the knee.An acrobatic save from Heidenheim goalie Diant Ramaj, on loan from Dortmund, denied Guirassy from the ensuing free-kick. <div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>The Guinean did not take long to get on the scoresheet however, heading in a pinpoint Julian Ryerson cross with 33 minutes played. In the sixth minute of first-half stoppage time, Karim Adeyemi danced through the Heidenheim defence before squaring to Beier who tapped Dortmund two in front. "Our goal is to become champions, so we have to get points. We did that," Beier told Sky Germany. "When you're a man up the entire game, that makes it easier."Guirassy, 29, has only failed to score in two of his past 15 matches for Dortmund in all competitions, racking up 18 goals in the process. Champions League finalists in 2024, Dortmund kick off their European season away at Juventus on Tuesday. Elsewhere, Freiburg scored three goals inside the final 10 minutes to beat Stuttgart 3-1 at home.Left to carry the mantle up front after Nick Woltemade's big-money move to Newcastle, Ermedin Demirovic put Stuttgart in front with a classy backheel after 20 minutes, holding up two Freiburg defenders and sliding a slick finish into the corner.Stuttgart looked set to hold on for victory until Freiburg's Igor Matanovic kick-started a late flurry, scoring with nine minutes remaining.Derry Scherhant put the hosts in front five minutes later and Matanovic grabbed another in stoppage time for Freiburg's first points of the season.Union Berlin gave away two penalties, conceded twice more and finished a man down in a 4-2 home loss to Hoffenheim.Hoffenheim's Fisnik Asllani scored a brace, while Andrej Kramaric and Tim Lemperle converted from the spot. Trailing 3-1, Union's Tom Rothe scored with 71 minutes played to give the hosts hope but was sent from the field 11 minutes later while giving away a last-man penalty, allowing Hoffenheim to seal the match. Johan Bakayoko scored his first goal since arriving at RB Leipzig in the summer in a 1-0 win at Mainz. Promoted Koln scored in the 14th minute of second-half stoppage time to snatch a point in a 3-3 draw at Wolfsburg, with Jakub Kaminski providing the crucial goal for the visitors against his parent club.

Arsenal ruined Ange Postecoglou's first game in charge of Nottingham Forest as Martin Zubimendi's double sealed a 3-0 win at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.Zubimendi bagged his first goals for the Gunners following his close-season move from Real Sociedad.The Spain midfielder opened the scoring in the first half and netted again in the closing stages after Viktor Gyokeres doubled Arsenal's lead soon after the break.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Arsenal's third win in four games took them to the top of the table on goal difference ahead of Liverpool, who face Burnley on Sunday.A 1-0 defeat against champions Liverpool in their last match before the international break had punctured the optimism at Arsenal after successive wins against Leeds and Manchester United to start the season.But this was the kind of confident display, highlighted by Noni Madueke's virtuoso performance, that Gunners boss Mikel Arteta believes will keep his side in contention to win the title."When the players have been away for internationals, it's always a question mark how they're going to react and connect again. To win 3-0, another clean sheet is very important," Arteta said."Unbelievable from Zubimendi, two very difficult goals in terms of execution. He's come into the club and you feel a real presence, a real authority with everything he does on the pitch."Some of the players were starting for the first time so, overall, very good."The only dark cloud for Arteta was an injury to Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard, who was forced off in the first half with what looked like a shoulder problem.Odegaard joins a lengthy injury list that already includes Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz, Gabriel Jesus and William Saliba."It's the same shoulder. He was uncomfortable to continue. That's a shame because he played with the national team and was feeling good. He'll do everything to be involved midweek (in the Champions League) but I don't know," Arteta said.It was a frustrating return to north London for Postecoglou, just three months after he was unceremoniously sacked by Tottenham despite winning the Europa League last season to end the club's 17-year trophy drought.Postecoglou was hired by Forest this week following Nuno Espirito Santo's dismissal after his relationship with owner Evangelos Marinakis collapsed.<h3>'Disruptive week'</h3>Marinakis immediately piled pressure on Postecoglou, who presided over Tottenham's worst top-flight finish since 1976-77 last season, by claiming Forest were in a position to challenge for major trophies.However, the Australian didn't win a north London derby as Tottenham boss and was unable to guide Forest to their first victory on Arsenal turf since 1989."They're a very good side and pretty formidable at home. But even in that context, it's disappointing," Postecoglou said."It's been a really disruptive week for the players. We've only had one training session together but hopefully now we can start bedding in some of the principles we need to."Arsenal's Eberechi Eze made his first start since signing from Crystal Palace in August, while the winger's England team-mate Declan Rice was left on the bench.Arsenal's set-piece excellence had tormented Postecoglou during his time at Tottenham and it nearly paid off again when Jurrien Timber's glancing header flashed just wide from Madueke's corner.It was no surprise when Arsenal took the lead from another dead-ball delivery in the 32nd minute, but Zubimendi's strike was far from routine.Meeting the ball on the volley, he blasted a brilliant strike from the edge of the area that took a slight deflection off Forest defender Murillo as it flashed past Matz Sels.Gyokeres put Arsenal in complete control just 46 seconds after the interval.It was a goal that showcased Arteta's summer recruitment as Eze whipped in a low cross for Gyokeres to slot home with ease for his third goal since arriving from Sporting Lisbon.Zubimendi administered the knockout blow in the 79th minute, rising to meet Leandro Trossard's cross with a clinical header.

Alex Grimaldo scored a free-kick in each half as Bayer Leverkusen survived two red cards to beat Eintracht Frankfurt 3-1 at home on Friday in new coach Kasper Hjulmand's debut.Grimaldo curled in an expert free kick 10 minutes in and Patrik Schick converted a penalty to give Leverkusen a 2-0 lead at half-time. Can Uzun pulled one back for Frankfurt with 52 minutes gone to keep the visitors in the match. <div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Leverkusen's hopes of a first win of the season looked in doubt when captain Robert Andrich got his marching orders for a second yellow card with half an hour left -- and looked worse when Equi Fernandez was also sent off in stoppage time. But Grimaldo, handed the captain's armband when Andrich was sent off, once again curled in from outside the box with eight minutes gone to seal a famous victory. Appointed on Monday in the seat vacated by former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag, sacked after just two games, Hjulmand opened his account with a win. Grimaldo, widely tipped to join the exodus exiting Leverkusen this summer, put the hosts ahead just 10 minutes in, cutting a free kick over the wall and in, hitting the post and then the back of goalie Michael Zetterer. Schick, another holdout from Bayer's incredible unbeaten season in 2023-24, doubled their lead in first-half stoppage time, cooly converting from the spot after Nathan Tella was fouled. Uzun cut the deficit when his strike was deflected past Leverkusen goalie Flekken with 52 minutes played.Germany midfielder Andrich's second yellow for a harmless but lazy studs up challenge turned up the heat on the home side, who had not won a league match since April. Leverkusen lost another man in stoppage time when Fernandez was sent from the field but the hosts would be the next to score when Grimaldo once again showed his prowess from set pieces, threading the ball expertly home. The result extended Leverkusen's recent record against Frankfurt, particularly at home. Leverkusen have now beaten Frankfurt in their past six games and have not lost to them at home since 2013. On Saturday, Bayern Munich host newly promoted Hamburg, while Borussia Dortmund travel to minnows Heidenheim.
