Norwich City 1-0 Charlton Athletic: Jovon Makama nets Canaries winner

By Total Football News

Makama, the most impressive player on the field, showed his intent when he crashed a 14th-minute effort off the upright from 12 yards.

The forward was the bright point in a quiet first period and, having set up a long-range Kenny McLean effort, he came close to getting on the end of a Ben Chrisene cross.

Ruairi McConville hooked a shot over the Charlton bar 11 minutes from the break,

Championship: Millwall 1-3 Hull City – Kyle Joseph nets twice as Tigers go sixth

By Total Football News

Hull keeper Ivor Pandur was called into action in the opening exchanges, tipping wide Tristan Crama’s shot from distance.

But the visitors went up the other end and took the lead on six minutes. Belloumi drove forward and crossed from the right to find Joseph, who applied the finish from close range.

Joseph doubled his tally and Hull’s lead seven minutes later, this time turning in Millar’s cross with a

Chelsea 2-1 Liverpool: Estevao nets stoppage-time winner to stun visitors

By Total Football News

Estevao Willian struck deep into stoppage time to give Chelsea victory and condemn Liverpool to a third successive defeat in a dramatic climax at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea’s winning goal, greeted with wild celebrations that ended with coach Enzo Maresca being sent off, was deserved but it was another bitterly disappointing outcome for the out-of-sorts Premier League champions.

Moises Caicedo made the breakthrough for the hosts after 14 minutes as he

Stoke City 1-1 Luton Town: Millenic Alli nets injury-time Hatters leveller

By Total Football News

After a tense but poor first half in which Sam Gallagher’s on-target header for Stoke and Theo Aasgaard volley’s for Luton were the only moments worthy of mention, it quickly livened up after the break.

Big Luton striker Carlton Morris’s crude block on Stoke defender Ashley Phillips got the home fans angry – and things started to get a more heated.

Mark McGuinness headed just wide for Luton, followed by

Blackburn Rovers 1-2 Cardiff City: Yakou Meite nets vital winner

By Total Football News

This was an important fixture at both ends of the Championship as Blackburn looked to revive their faltering bid for a top-six finish while Cardiff searched for just a fifth win in 25 league matches.

Their most recent defeat at home to relegation rivals Luton Town on Tuesday had prompted boos from the Bluebirds’ fans at the final whistle and heaped pressure on Riza.

His team responded well at Ewood

Brentford 0-1 Aston Villa: Ollie Watkson nets winner against old club

By Total Football News

Villa took a massive step towards the quarter-finals of the Champions League with their 3-1 victory at Club Brugge in midweek.

However, with a number of heavyweights still in the competition and the prospect of a last-eight tie against Liverpool or Paris St-Germain – should they advance past the Belgians – this represented crucial progress domestically.

Villa’s post-Champions League struggles have been well documented this term.

Sheffield Wednesday 1-2 Coventry City: Ellis Simms nets two in Sky Blues win

By Total Football News

The Owls were boosted by captain Barry Bannan’s return from injury and he helped set up the game’s first chance in the sixth minute.

Bannan’s ball over the top sent Svante Ingelsson away though he was unable to get his shot away under pressure.

Coventry were initially unable to clear the ball though and only last-ditch blocks from Milan van Ewijk and Liam Kitching prevented Ike Ugbo and Djeidi Gassama

Hull City 1-2 Stoke City: Moran nets as Robins gets first league win

By Total Football News

Stoke’s away form makes similarly grim reading – having previously picked up only 10 points out of a possible 42 on the road this season.

And Robins may have feared the worst when Lynden Gooch was outmuscled by Sean McLoughlin at the back post from a well-worked Hull short corner taken by Matazo. The ball then skidded across the six-yard box, for Matazo to run in and score from a

West Brom 3-1 Preston: Josh Maja nets twice as Baggies triumph

By Total Football News

After scoring just two goals in their first seven home games this season, Albion have now hit 11 in their last five.

The opener came on 18 minutes when Mikey Johnston, fresh from his first two goals of the season in Albion’s last home game, cut in from the left and looked set to unleash one of his trademark right-foot curlers, but he totally foxed the North End defence.

He

Norwich City 1-1 QPR: Marcelino Nunez nets late to rescue Canaries draw

By Total Football News

The Canaries, worthy victors over Millwall last time out to end a four-game winless run, were not at their best but will wonder how they failed to take all three points, let alone have to be content with one, having dominated their stubborn opposition.

QPR, so abject in their 3-0 loss in Wales three days earlier, wasted a glorious opportunity to go ahead when Lucas Andersen sliced a first-time effort
