This week’s winner of the top five goals was the dead ball finish from newly promoted man, Ruben Neves.

Everything comes into play here for this decision. A goal to steal a point from Everton. A goal to open your English Premier League account. The most important of them all, one of the youngest to score on the day.

A free kick or a penalty – always is a great battle between the keeper and spot kicker. In this showdown, the keeper was caught napping and exposed. A short goalkeeper caught on the wrong foot.

Neves was intentional in picking his corner after giving Pickford the eyes, and catching him with his pants down. Or cleats tied to each other… Scramble Jordan did.
