Tottenham beat Southampton 5-2\u00a0to begin Boxing Day in style and there were plenty of goals in the 3pm games, too.<\/p>\n

BOURNEMOUTH 3-3 WEST HAM<\/strong>
\nA controversial stoppage-time goal salvaged a 3-3 draw for\u00a0Bournemouth\u00a0against West Ham in a thrilling\u00a0Premier League\u00a0encounter at Dean Court.<\/p>\n

Callum Wilson was credited with the Cherries’ third after he had the final touch as Nathan Ake headed goalwards. There was a suspicion of offside and handball but referee Bobby Madley eventually awarded the equaliser after a lengthy conversation with assistant Simon Long.<\/p>\n

\"collins-cele\"<\/p>\n

Wilson’s disputed effort cancelled out a brace from Hammers forward Marko Arnautovic that had David Moyes’ travelling side expecting victory.<\/p>\n

CHELSEA 2-0 BRIGHTON<\/strong>
\nAlvaro Morata returned from suspension to ignite Chelsea’s 2-0 Premier League victory over Brighton at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n

Morata was unavailable for the goalless draw at\u00a0Everton\u00a0three days previously but his firepower inspired the champions following a lifeless first half that saw a number of fine chances wasted.<\/p>\n

\"morata-cele1\"<\/p>\n

It was a familiar sight that broke the deadlock as the Spain striker combined with international team-mate Cesar Azpilicueta, nodding home the full-back’s pinpoint cross a mere 40 seconds after the interval.<\/p>\n

Alonso nodded in the second from Fabregas’ delivery.<\/p>\n

HUDDERSFIELD\u00a01-1 STOKE<\/strong>
\nTom Ince’s first Premier League goal since February 2014 was cancelled out by Ramadan Sobhi’s second in four days as Huddersfield and Stoke drew 1-1.<\/p>\n

\"ince-cele\"<\/p>\n

Ince, who last registered a top-flight goal with\u00a0Crystal Palace, finally ended his drought with his 45th shot in the division this season in the 10th minute.<\/p>\n

MANCHESTER\u00a0UNITED\u00a02-2 BURNLEY<\/strong>
\nJesse Lingard came off the bench to spare Man\u00a0United a Boxing Day defeat at the hands of\u00a0Burnley, scoring twice to rescue a 2-2 draw for Jose Mourinho’s side.<\/p>\n

\"barnes-cele\"<\/p>\n

Lingard answered a half-time SOS call with United staring down the barrel at 2-0 down, but pulled one back with an instinctive back-heel before striking through a packed box in added time to cap a frantic finale.<\/p>\n

WATFORD\u00a02-1 LEICESTER<\/strong>
\nWatford\u00a0came from behind to beat Leicester 2-1 and seal a first Premier League victory in seven games.<\/p>\n

A tap-in from Molla Wague and an own goal from Kasper Schmeichel cancelled out Leicester forward Riyad Mahrez’s opener.<\/p>\n

\"watford\"<\/p>\n

The victory was a first for Marco Silva’s side since a 3-0 success at Newcastle on 25 November.<\/p>\n

WEST\u00a0BROM\u00a00-0 EVERTON<\/strong>
\nWasteful West Brom extended their winless run to 18 games after failing to find a way through against Everton.<\/p>\n

Salomon Rondon and Craig Dawson missed golden chances as the Baggies were held to a goalless draw at The Hawthorns, with boss Alan Pardew still looking for his first win after six attempts.<\/p>\n

They will go half a season without a Premier League victory if they fail to beat\u00a0Arsenal\u00a0at home on Sunday and Pardew’s side are three points from the safety line.\u00a0Sam Allardyce, meanwhile, is unbeaten as Everton manager.<\/p>\n
