THE GAMES…<br />

Leeds began the defence<br />

of their title by defeating<br />

Wimbledon 2-1 thanks to a Lee<br />

Chapman brace.<br />

It was a good start for Alan<br />

Shearer who marked his<br />

Blackburn debut by scoring<br />

twice against Crystal Palace<br />

at Selhurst Park, but Kenny<br />

Dalglish’s side couldn’t make<br />

it a winning start after a Simon<br />

Osborn strike in the 90th minute<br />

rescued a point for the home<br />

side as the game ended 3-3.<br />

Teddy Sheringham had the<br />

honour of netting the first live<br />

goal on Sky as Nottingham<br />

Forest beat Liverpool 1-0 at<br />

the City Ground, whilst the<br />

first Monday night live game<br />

ended 1-1 between QPR and<br />

Manchester City.<br />

▲ Forest’s Teddy<br />

Sheringham nets the<br />

first live TV Premier<br />

League goal<br />

ANY OTHER BUSINESS?<br />

<strong>United</strong>’s victory over Manchester<br />

<strong>United</strong> also saw the Blades<br />

record the top crowd of the<br />

opening weekend of the Premier<br />

League when 28,070 watched<br />

what would eventually prove to<br />

be an historic win.<br />
