Coventry's first Premier League win in 25 years, Brighton put three past Arsenal
Jay Dasilva's goal ends a wait that started in April 2001. Arsenal's worst defeat in three years, and Tottenham still have not won.

Frank Lampard's Coventry City beat Nottingham Forest 1-0 on Sunday for their first Premier League win in 25 years, and Brighton handed Arsenal their heaviest defeat in any competition since April 2023.
Coventry 1-0 Nottingham Forest
Jay Dasilva scored in the 55th minute. It is Coventry's first top-flight league win since April 2001, against Sunderland, in the season they were relegated. They came up through the Championship and their opening fixtures were brutal: away at Arsenal and Manchester City, and a 5-0 home defeat by Brighton.
Brighton 3-0 Arsenal
Played at the Amex on Saturday. Pascal Gross opened on 31 minutes, Charalampos Kostoulas made it two on the stroke of half time, and Chema Andres finished it on 60.
"Brighton deserved to win the game," Mikel Arteta said afterwards. "We didn't do the basics right for long periods."
It was Arsenal's heaviest loss in any competition in more than three years. Brighton have now scored 16 goals in five league games.
Tottenham still without a win
Tottenham lost 3-2 at home to Aston Villa on Saturday and remain winless. They go into the international break in the bottom three.
Elsewhere
In Serie A, Lautaro Martinez scored twice as Inter came from behind to draw 2-2 with Roma. In Turkey, Mohamed Salah scored a hat-trick in Trabzonspor's 4-0 win over Galatasaray, which we covered here.
Watching from Pakistan
Premier League Sunday fixtures at 6:30pm and 9pm UK time start at 10:30pm and 1am Pakistan time, which is why the Saturday afternoon kick-offs, 7:30pm here, are the ones most people actually get to watch. Pakistan is four hours ahead of the UK while British Summer Time lasts, and five hours ahead once the clocks go back in late October.
