Fernandes hat-trick inspires five-goal Man Utd comeback against Ipswich

Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes scored a hat-trick in their 5-2 victory over Ipswich Town at Old Trafford, marking a strong comeback after their Hull defeat and a poor opening match result. Michael Carrick's team had suffered a deserved loss in their opening Premier League game, but Fernandes' three goals, along with contributions from Jacob Greaves, Bryan Mbeumo, and Marcus Rashford, helped secure the win. Marcus Rashford made his first Old Trafford appearance in 90 weeks during the match.

Chelsea continued their successful start under manager Xabi Alonso with a 4-3 win over Brighton at Stamford Bridge. The Red Devils dominated early on, with goals from Romeo Lavia, Pedro Neto, and João Pedro, putting them three goals ahead. Brighton fought back with goals from Malick Yalcouye and João Pedro's own goal, but Cole Palmer's four goals, including the decisive penalty, turned the tide in Chelsea's favor.

However, concerns remain about Chelsea's defense, and it remains to be seen if a title challenge is plausible with their current defensive issues. Fulham and Leeds also secured wins in their respective matches, with Isidor scoring the only goal for Sunderland and Calvert-Lewin equalizing for Leeds after Brentford took the lead.
