In the Premier League, there was rare action for midfielder Christian Atsu who came off the bench in the 84th minute in Newcastle United’s 5-0 defeat to Manchester City. It was the first time Atsu has played since the Premier League returned after the coronavirus enforced break.
On Tuesday, Jordan Ayew played full throttle for Crystal Palace who lost 3-2 at home to Chelsea.

TURKEY
Forward Caleb Ekuban featured as Trabzonspor dropped points at home against Antalyaspor in the Turkish Super League on Wednesday night.
Ekuban lasted 65 minutes before he was replaced by Anthony Nwakaeme, and just a minute after he left the pitch the visitors leveled the scoreline to 2-2.
Ghana’s Afriyie Acquah scored the crucial match winner to help Yeni Malatyaspor edge past countryman Isaac Coffie’s Sivasspor in the Turkish Super Lig on Wednesday.
Both midfielders started the game for their respective sides but it was Coffie who did not last full-time, making way in the 87th minute.
