The Boxing Day provided us with some greatly entertaining matches. Machester United easily brushed aside Sunderland's challenge at the Stadium of Light, leaving Roy Keane with some serious work to do in order to raise his team's morale after a crushing defeat. Arsenal looked shot-shy and fatigued as they drew away to a resilient Portsmouth team. Moving on, Rafael Benitez and his players should be deeply ashamed of themselves as they needed a stoppage time Gerrard-goal to defeat woeful Derby County. It was Chelsea and Aston Villa that provided us with the most pulsating and intriguing match. In a game that had everything (great goals, awful mistakes, red cards, dubious penalties), Gareth Barry scored from the penalty spot in stoppage time to hand Villa a deserved draw. The following are all the results from the Boxing Day fixtures.

Sunderland 0-4 Manchester United (0-2)

Portsmouth 0-0 Arsenal (0-1)

Chelsea 4-4 Aston Villa (2-1)

Derby 1-2 Liverpool (0-4)

Birmingham 3-0 Middlesborough (1-1)


Everton 2-0 Bolton (3-0)

Tottenham 5-1 Fulham (3-1)

West Ham 1-1
Reading (2-0)

Wigan 1-0 Newcastle (1-1)

Manchester City 2-2 v Blackburn (3-1)

Last time, I got FOUR results right but ZERO perfect scores.
