After an entertaining goalless draw between Bournemouth and Tottenham in the early kick-off, fans were treated to some stunning strikes and wonderful winners in the afternoon\u2019s action.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a round-up of all the 3 O\u2019clock Premier League fixtures:<\/p>\n

Arsenal 0-0 Middlesbrough<\/strong>
\n<\/a>
\"arsenal2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Boro were the party poopers on Arsene Wenger\u2019s 67th birthday as they held Arsenal to a goalless draw at the Emirates Stadium, although the Gunners had Petr Cech to thank for a share of the points.<\/p>\n

Arsenal, predictably, dominated possession throughout the game but it was Middlesbrough who created more chances.<\/p>\n

\"arsenal-cech-save\"<\/p>\n

Gaston Ramirez rattled the crossbar with free-kick before forcing Cech into wonderful point-blank save with a back-post header, while the Czech glovesman came to the Gunners\u2019 rescue again with a smart double save to thwart a Boro counter-attack.<\/p>\n

Victor Valdes was also impressive when called upon, with the former Barcelona and Manchester United keeper leaping across his line to deny a Alexis Sanchez free-kick, and he was on hand with another superb stop to deny Sanchez again after the break.<\/p>\n

\"arsenal3\"<\/p>\n

Boro sat back in the closing stages and invited pressure from Arsenal, but the hosts struggled to create.<\/p>\n

Arsenal thought they had won it in stoppage time when Mesut Ozil had the ball in the net, only for the linesman\u2019s flag to halt celebrations.<\/p>\n

Leicester 3-1 Crystal Palace<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"leicester-musa-goal\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Defending champions Leicester stretched their unbeaten home run to 20 league games as they hit three past Crystal Palace.<\/p>\n

Jamie Vardy started on the bench but it mattered not one bit as \u00a316m summer signing Ahmed Musa gave the Foxes a first-half lead with his first goal for the club, thumping home from just outside the area<\/p>\n

\"leicester-musa-cele\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Shinji Okazaki then drilled home to double the hosts\u2019 lead after the break, and full-back Christian Fuchs made it three in glorious fashion with a thunderbolt of a half-volley from 25 yards.<\/p>\n

\"leicester-fuchs\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Yohan Cabaye scored a consolation late on for the Eagles, but it was too late to entertain any thoughts of a possible comeback.<\/p>\n

\"leicester-cele\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Burnley 2-1 Everton<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"everton1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Scott Arfield hit a 890th winner as Burnley stunned a more dominant Everton side at Turf Moor.<\/p>\n

The hosts took the lead through Sam Vokes just before the break, poking home after a mistake from Maartin Stekelenburg.<\/p>\n

\"everton-bolasie-cele\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Yannick Bolasie later levelled with a cracking finish into the bottom corner, after he literally robbed Lukaku of the ball in a quick counter.<\/p>\n

The Toffees pushed hard for the winner, but three points went to the Clarents thanks to Arfield\u2019s late strike, finding the bottom corner with a neat finish after Johann Berg Gudmundsson\u2019s long-range effort came back out off the bar.<\/p>\n

\"everton-arfield\"<\/a><\/p>\n

West Ham 1-0 Sunderland<\/strong><\/p>\n

West Ham claimed a dramatic late win over win-less Sunderland thanks to Winston Reid stoppage-time winner.<\/p>\n

The Hammers were the best team by far but were frustrated throughout, with Dimitri Payet and Simone Zaza going close early on.<\/p>\n

\"west-ham\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Black Cats were edging closer to a point but their hard work was undone by a moment of brilliance from Reid, who turned well on the edge of the box from a late corner before sending a fine drive into the bottom corner.<\/p>\n

It leaves David Moyes’ side rooted to the foot of the Premier League with just two points from their first nine games.<\/p>\n

\"west-ham-reid\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hull 0-2 Stoke<\/strong><\/p>\n

Xherdan Shaqiri netted a fine brace as Stoke comfortably beat Hull to move out of the bottom-three.<\/p>\n

\"stoke-shaqiri-goal\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Swiss star cut in on his left foot and sent a thunderbolt into the top corner to give the Potters the lead in the first-half.<\/p>\n

\"stoke-shaqiri-goal2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Joe Allen, aiming to score in a fourth consecutive Premier League game, was close to early goal when played through by a lovely dinked through ball from Shaqiri, but it was too strong and the keeper did well to burst out and gather.<\/p>\n

In truth, Hull offered very little throughout the game and Shaqiri sealed the three points for Stoke in the second-half with a neat free-kick.<\/p>\n

\"stoke-shaqiri-cele1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Swansea 0-0 Watford<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bob Bradley earned a point in his first home game as Swansea manager as the Welsh side played out a goalless draw with Watford.<\/p>\n

After a dull first half, Hornets goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes kept his side in it with a series of brilliant stops, including a great reaction save to deny Mike van der Hoorn from close range.<\/p>\n

\"swansea\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Jacks came closest to a winner\u00a0when Gylfi Sigurdsson hit the post with a neat sidefooted effort in the 83rd minute.<\/p>\n

Just the one point sees Swansea stay second bottom of the table, while Watford’s climb one place up to ninth.<\/p>\n
