Stoke City 1-1\u00a0Manchester United<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wayne Rooney became Manchester United’s all-time top scorer when his late goal<\/span><\/span> secured a 1-1 draw at\u00a0Stoke City.<\/p>\n

The Red Devils captain is now on 250 club goals and his strike extended Jose Mourinho’s side’s current unbeaten run which stretches back to October.<\/p>\n

\"ro\"<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

It looked like Mark Hughes\u2019 side were going to grind out the victory after taking a first-half lead.<\/p>\n

New signing Saido Berahino was presented to the crowd before kick-off and he will have been cheering on 19 minutes as Erik Pieters’ shot ricocheted off Juan Mata and past David De Gea.<\/p>\n

Potters goalkeeper Lee Grant made a good stop before the break to deny Paul Pogba’s volley, while Peter Crouch nearly netted his 100th Premier League goal with a speculative long-range effort at the other end.<\/p>\n

\"epl6\"<\/p>\n

Marko Arnautovic was fortunate not to be shown a second yellow for dissent and Man United made their feelings known.<\/p>\n

Marcus Rashford had a good chance on 76 minutes when he tried to shape the ball into the top corner, striking just past the post, before United had a penalty appeal turned down by Mark Clattenburg on 82 minutes, who gestured it was a clear chest control by the Stoke player.<\/p>\n

As the match<\/span><\/span> entered stoppage time, United were awarded a free-kick on the left-hand side and Rooney stepped up to whip the ball past Grant into the far corner in fine fashion.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Middlesbrough\u00a01-3\u00a0West Ham United<\/strong><\/p>\n

West Ham won<\/span><\/span> without Dimitri Payet again, as an Andy Carroll brace helped them to a 3-1 win over Middlesbrough\u00a0at Riverside.<\/p>\n

The Frenchman wants out of the east London club and they have won two Premier League goals in a row since he refused\u00a0to play.<\/p>\n

Former Newcastle striker Carroll put his side ahead in the north east with a powerful header on nine minutes and\u00a0Cristhian Stuani levelled the hosts 18 minutes later with a good strike across goal<\/span><\/span> to beat Darren Randolph.<\/p>\n

\"epl1\"<\/p>\n

Carroll took his tally for the season to five shortly before half-time as he was quickest to follow up Victor Valdes’ save which originally denied Michail Antonio.<\/p>\n

West Ham had some good chances to add to their league in the second half and the three points were\u00a0confirmed late on as Jonathan Calleri netted to secure a fifth win in seven league outings for Slaven Bilic’s men.<\/p>\n

West Bromwich Albion\u00a02-0 Sunderland<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tony Pulis’ West Brom continued their excellent form with a 2-0 victory over struggling Sunderland.<\/p>\n

The three points keeps the Baggies eighth in the Premier League, closing the gap on Everton to just two points, while defeat piles on more misery for David Moyes’ Black Cats at the bottom.<\/p>\n

\"epl2\"<\/p>\n

Darren Fletcher put the hosts ahead on 30 minutes, controlling the ball with his chest before volleying home. They doubled their lead six minutes later when Chris Brunt powerfully followed up after Nacer Chadli’s effort struck the bar.<\/p>\n

Sunderland came out fighting in the second half, but the damage was already done as Albion held on to the clean sheet as well as the win.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Crystal Palace 0-1\u00a0Everton<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everton earned a third win in four when Seamus Coleman’s 87th-minute goal gave them a deserved 1-0 Premier League<\/span><\/span> victory at Crystal Palace and ensured their season continued to gain momentum.<\/p>\n

\"epl\"<\/p>\n

They had last week unexpectedly defeated Manchester City 4-0, but despite that free-scoring performance appeared at risk of dropping two points amid Palace resiliently defending their consistent and convincing attacks.<\/p>\n

Victory strengthens Everton’s grip on seventh place, and leaves relegation-threatened Palace in the bottom three, but the hosts may yet take some consolation in knowing new manager Sam Allardyce’s influence is beginning to be felt.<\/p>\n

AFC Bournemouth 2-2 Watford<\/strong><\/p>\n

Benik Afobe came off the bench to rescue Bournemouth a point with a 2-2 draw at home to Watford.<\/p>\n

Christian Kabasele put the visitors ahead on 24 minutes with his third goal of the season, the 25-year-old converting from six yards after Miguel Britos’ ball<\/span><\/span> across goal.<\/p>\n

\"epl4\"<\/p>\n

Josh King drew the Cherries level early in the second half after brilliant wide play by Adam Smith and they nearly went in front minutes later as Heurelho Gomes made a vital save to deny Ryan Fraser.<\/p>\n

Hornets captain Troy Deeney headed Walter Mazzarri’s side back in front on the hour and it looked like they would hold on to end a six-match winless run. But with seven minutes left on the clock, substitute Afobe drilled home after Andrew Surman’s ball to save Eddie Howe’s side a point at the Vitality Stadium.<\/p>\n
