Tottenham conceeded late to draw 2-2 at Sunderland while, Everton won 2-0 against West Bromwich Albion in the English Premier League on Saturday.

Both sets of fans called for Newcastle manager Alan Pardew to be fired after Southampton thrashed the demoralised Magpies 4-0 in the English Premier League with Graziano Pelle inspiring Ronald Koeman's new-look side at St Mary's on Saturday.

Summer signing Pelle's brace was complemented by goals from Jack Cork and Morgan Schneiderlin.

Pelle headed home with just six minutes on the clock, and the Italian soon added another from close range. Cork's first league goal for the club and a late curling effort from Schneiderlin increased the pressure on Pardew.

Meanwhile, Tottenham conceded late to draw 2-2 at Sunderland as Harry Kane scored an own goal.

Whereas, Everton manager Roberto Martinez will be relieved after winning their first match of the season. Romelu Lukaku and Steven Naismith scored in the 2-0 victory over West Bromwich Albion.

In an another match of the day, Leonardo Ulloa gave Leicester a 1-0 victory at Stoke for their first triumph in the topflight since gaining promotion. However, fellow newcomer Burnley remain winless after Scott Arfield missed a penalty in a 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace.

Meanhile, Chelsea finally seem to have found the solution to their striking struggles. Diego Costa took his goal haul to seven in four matches with a hat trick against Swansea on Saturday while Loic Remy also scored on his debut.

The 4-2 victory was Chelsea's fourth win in four matches this season and ended Swansea's perfect start to the Premier League season.

Costa, who joined from Atletico Madrid for more than $50 million in July, is the first Chelsea player in 86 years to score in his first four games. And by setting up two of Costa's goals, midfielder Cesc Fabregas now has six assists in his four games since leaving Barcelona.

Across London, there was no debut goal for Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck in a 2-2 draw with champion Manchester City. Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere canceled out Sergio Aguero's opener and then set up Alexis Sanchez for a volleyed goal, but Martin Demichelis headed in City's late leveler.
