Good morning

AI Dave: Good morning! It's Sunday the twenty-fifth of October, and this is the Dave dot Sport Originals Daily Sports News Bulletin. I'm A.I. Dave!

Jo: And I'm Jo. The clocks went back, so you've all had an extra hour in bed. Dave has used his to get even more excited.

AI Dave: All in, Jo. Always all in! Aston Villa have ended Manchester City's perfect start.

Jo: Chelsea's derby went badly wrong, with a red card for Cole Palmer.

AI Dave: And Luke Littler has been flying in Dortmund. Stay with us.

The headlines

AI Dave: Villa Park first. Nicolas Jackson scored twice as Aston Villa beat Man City two-one, ending City's seven-match winning start.

Jo: Seven out of seven, gone! Be honest, did you see that coming?

AI Dave: Not a chance. Jackson scored after six minutes, Haaland headed City level on fifty-two, and Jackson got his second on sixty.

Jo: It's City's first dropped points under Enzo Maresca. Marc Guéhi's heavy touch gave Villa the first goal, and Donnarumma couldn't keep out the second. That's brutal.

AI Dave: And it's Villa's first home league win of the season! Meanwhile Arsenal beat Everton two-nil, with Ezri Konsa and Gabriel scoring.

Jo: Two centre-backs getting the goals! That puts Arsenal level with City on twenty-one points.

AI Dave: Now, Stamford Bridge. Chelsea nil, Tottenham two.

Jo: Mike Penders, making his first Premier League start, punched a corner into his own net in the seventy-seventh minute. Then Palmer picked up a second yellow, and Mathys Tel sealed it on eighty-seven.

AI Dave: It's Spurs' first win at Chelsea since twenty eighteen! Does Palmer miss a league game, though?

Jo: No. He misses the Carabao Cup tie at Liverpool on Wednesday at eight o'clock, but no league game.

AI Dave: Small mercy for Chelsea. Not such good news for Spurs, though. James Maddison went off, Sky reported a groin problem, and they're awaiting the assessment.

Jo: Fingers crossed for him. Nobody wants to see that.

Results round-up

AI Dave: Right, results. Premier League first: Villa two, City one. Arsenal two, Everton nil. Chelsea nil, Tottenham two.

Jo: And Coventry nil, Fulham one. Oscar Bobb scored an eightieth-minute winner and Fulham climbed out of the relegation zone.

AI Dave: Championship now, and Richard Kone! QPR five, Swansea nil, and Kone scored a hat-trick inside fifteen minutes.

Jo: Fifteen minutes! Second minute, ninth minute, then a penalty on fifteen. Jimmy Dunne got the other two.

AI Dave: West Ham two, Southampton three. Saints led three-one at half-time, and Souček's goal in the ninetieth minute wasn't enough.

Jo: That ended West Ham's nine-match unbeaten run. Lincoln four, Burnley one, and Mikkel Ladefoged scored twice.

AI Dave: Charlton one, Norwich three. Portsmouth two, Millwall one. Wolves one, Watford nil. Cardiff one, Birmingham nil.

Jo: Blackburn two, Wrexham nil, with Andri Gudjohnsen getting both. Sheffield United one, Derby one. Preston one, West Brom one. Stoke nil, Bristol City nil.

AI Dave: League One. Blackpool one, Mansfield four! Luton two, Leicester one, and it was settled in the ninetieth minute.

Jo: Leicester had pulled one back on ninety, then Callum Marshall won it for Luton straight after. Also Reading two, Barnsley one, with a Kyreece Lisbie double.

AI Dave: Doncaster two, Sheffield Wednesday nil, with two from Owen Bailey. Plymouth won three-two at Cambridge.

Jo: League Two is a goal-fest. Chesterfield five, Crewe one. Rochdale nil, Accrington Stanley five. Gillingham one, Grimsby four.

AI Dave: And Rotherham three, Shrewsbury three, with two red cards! Paul Mullin scored twice in three minutes.

Jo: In the National League, Aaron Blair hit a hat-trick as Eastleigh beat Boston four-two. Boreham Wood won four-nil.

AI Dave: Scotland: Rangers four, St Johnstone nil, with Kevin Kelsy scoring twice. Dundee United three, Aberdeen two. Falkirk three, Kilmarnock nil, and St Mirren two, Dundee one.

The big talking point

AI Dave: Talking point time. Chelsea's defeat. Who cost them more, Penders or Palmer?

Jo: Palmer, easy. Chelsea were goalless and competing, and then he got a second yellow for a challenge on Conor Gallagher. Ten men in a derby is a disaster.

AI Dave: Hang on, though! Penders punched a corner into his own net. That's the goal that broke the deadlock.

Jo: It was his first Premier League start, Dave. Have a heart.

AI Dave: Fair, but it was still a keeper's job to clear that. Whereas Palmer's red came after the goal, so Chelsea were already behind.

Jo: But he'd already been booked after the row with Mateus Fernandes. He knew he was on thin ice!

AI Dave: So you're blaming Palmer and I'm blaming the keeper. Who wins?

Jo: Me, obviously. Let us know who's right, listeners. Palmer or Penders?

AI Dave: I'm all in on Penders, and I'm not changing my mind!

Around the sports

AI Dave: Darts! Luke Littler beat Nathan Aspinall ten-five at the European Championship in Dortmund. He averaged one hundred and fourteen point four seven.

Jo: That's the second-highest average in the tournament's history. Only Phil Taylor's one eighteen point one four, back in two thousand and nine, is higher.

AI Dave: Defending champion Gian van Veen is out, though. Luke Woodhouse beat him ten-six.

Jo: Littler plays Krzysztof Ratajski in the quarter-finals today. Can anyone stop him?

AI Dave: I don't think so. All in on Littler! Who've you got, Jo?

Jo: Littler. I'm not brave enough to argue with a one-fourteen average.

AI Dave: Rugby now. Leicester beat Northampton twenty-eight-seven in the Premiership, with four tries after the break. Bristol beat Exeter twenty to seven at Ashton Gate.

Jo: Two tries, two penalties and a late score to close it out. Tidy.
