FULL TIME: Tottenham Hotspur 4-0 Everton
A first win of the season for Spurs. Everton on the wrong end of a big scoreline for the second week in a row.
GOAL! Rangers 6-0 Ross County (Danilo 90). As if the trip back up the A9 wasn’t going to be miserable enough already.

Hat-trick number ten at City for Erling Haaland.

Fulham 2-1 Leicester. The Foxes are looking for a last-gasp equaliser as well, but don’t look like scoring.
Southampton 0-1 Nottingham Forest. Saints are pushing in the hope of securing a first point of the season, but Forest are sitting back and holding firm.
A diminuendo end to the afternoon. Not what Leicester or Southampton fans, desirous of late-equaliser news, want to hear.
GOAL! Tottenham Hotspur 4-0 Everton (Son 77)
A second goal for Son, but this is all about Micky van de Ven’s barnstorming pitch-length run. Franz Beckenbauer on some choice amphetamine. Over to Mary Waltz: “This is the moment in most Everton fixtures where I say: ‘Hang on old girl, it’s only football.’ Sigh.”
Manchester City 3-1 Ipswich Town. İlkay Gündoğan is back, baby. He replaces Savinho to make his second debut for City.
GOAL! Rangers 5-0 Ross County (Matondo 69). Cyriel Dessers already has one; now there’s a brace for Rabbi Matondo as well.
GOAL! Fulham 2-1 Leicester (Iwobi 70)
Alex Iwobi tears clear to restore Fulham’s lead at the Cottage.
GOAL! Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 Everton (Romero 71)
It’s nixed now. Cristian Romero heads home a James Maddison corner, and it’s all over in N17.
Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 Everton. James Maddison whistles a free kick inches wide. That would have put the nix on any possible Everton comeback.
GOAL! Crystal Palace 0-2 West Ham (Bowen 72)
Come to the Guardian for the very latest in London Buses news.
GOAL! Southampton 0-1 Nottingham Forest (Gibbs-White 70)
Saints only half-clear a corner, and now look.
GOAL! Rangers 4-0 Ross County (Lawrence 65). The majority in Hampden now en fête.
Crystal Palace 0-1 West Ham. When the Hammers were celebrating that goal, a pitchside screen fell on a nearby ballboy. Thankfully he seems OK, with Tomas Soucek pulling him clear of danger just in time.
GOAL! Crystal Palace 0-1 West Ham (Soucek 67)
So having said that … there’s something to say now! Wan-Bissaka is immediately in the thick of it. He cuts back for Tomas Soucek who opens the scoring. Can Clockwatch claim a karmic assist?
Crystal Palace 0-0 West Ham. Another debut to report: Aaron Wan-Bissaka comes on for the Hammers. There’s not a great deal else to say.
GOAL! Rangers 3-0 Ross County (Dessers 58). A second goal for Cyriel Dessers and the Gers are home and hosed against the Highlanders.
Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 Everton. Some more hope for Mary Waltz, Eric Peterson, Robin Cannon et al. Jesper Lindstrøm is on for his Everton debut and has already taken one promising whack at goal.
Aston Villa v Arsenal. The teams for tonight’s 5.30pm kick-off have dropped at Villa Park. Barry Glendenning is all over it.
GOAL! Dundee United 1-0 St Johnstone (Stephenson 54). Simon McMahon can start planning for his European tour.
Manchester City 3-1 Ipswich Town. Mateo Kovačić takes a boot up the Aristotle and can’t continue. He’s subbed off for John Stones, so no second debut for İlkay Gündoğan yet.
Southampton 0-0 Nottingham Forest. A slow start to the second half all round, really.
Fulham 1-1 Leicester. Woet Faes gets overly fancy with a back-heel and is dispossessed by Adama Traoré, who sets up Rodrigo Muniz … to miss.
Half-time Everton-infused postbag. “I know I’m too optimistic for my own good when it comes to supporting Everton, but Jarrad Branthwaite’s absence can’t be underestimated. It’ll make a real difference when he gets healthy. Because, you know, it’s not like he’s a transfer target or anything, especially from the folks across town … oh …” – Eric Peterson
“Are Everton a flawed team? Absolutely. Does that mean we can’t ever show any ambition in a game? Not in the slightest. That’s entirely a self inflicted limitation” – Robin Cannon
“Easy there, Gregory Hilton. You come for Waltz, you come for us all” – Stephen Holliday
Scottish Premiership half-times.
“A feisty first 45 at Tannadice,” begins Simon McMahon. “No goals and three bookings, meaning that as it stands Dundee United are still seventh in the table. One goal would change that, though. Then it would be a case of Europe here we come! Come on United!”

Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 Everton
Manchester City 3-1 Ipswich Town. Some role reversal at the Etihad. Leif Davis, who earlier gave away a penalty with a clip on Savinho, is now impeded by the same player in the City box. But he’s not getting a penalty, despite some clear contact. A generous decision goes the way of the champions.
GOAL! Rangers 2-0 Ross County (Matondo 45). Rabbi Matondo doubles the Teddy Bears’ lead on the stroke of half-time.
Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 Everton. A little bit of hope for Everton and Mary Waltz. Three corners in a row, and James Maddison is forced to hack a Abdoulaye Doucouré effort off the line.
