Manchester United was stunned, 1-0, at home by Southampton in the Premier League, and Leicester moved to 3 points ahead at the top — at least for 24 hours, before Arsenal’s game against Chelsea — by beating visiting Stoke, 3-0. United remains in fifth but is now 5 points behind Tottenham, which came from behind to win, 3-1, at Crystal Palace.
u25a0 Striker Hugo Almeida scored in his return to the German league but could not prevent his new club, Hannover, from slumping to a 2-1 home loss to Darmstadt. Almeida scored 10 minutes into his Hannover debut, only for Sandro Wagner to equalize from close range and then convert a rebound after a Jan Rosenthal header struck the post right after halftime.
