Saturday, September 2nd
22:23 BST - Fulham manager Marco Silva was left fuming after a controversial goal scored by Manchester City's Nathan Ake was failed to be ruled out by a VAR review.
"That moment made a huge impact. Everyone that plays football, has some knowledge about football, are 100% sure they have to disallow that. It's impossible to not," he told reporters. "It's a clear offside, it concerns us how that goal was not disallowed."
22:02 BST - A couple of results to tell you about in France and Italy.
Monaco claimed a somewhat expected 3-0 win over Lens in Ligue 1 - you can read our report on that match here.
And over in Italy, Lazio have dealt Napoli their first defeat of the new Serie A season. Read more here.
19:50 BST - Monaco will kick-off in 10 minutes as they look to go clear at the top of Ligue 1. They face a struggling Lens side who will fall to 17th with another defeat.
Lens were drawn against Arsenal in the Champions League and have endured a terrible start to the campaign so far, but can they turn it around?
You can follow their match against Monaco here.
19:30 BST - The full-time also goes in Germany and Italy with Bayern and Bologna coming from behind to secure late 2-1 wins over Monchengladbach and Cagliari respectively.
19:25 BST - Kaoru Mitoma misses the chance to add another for Brighton at the death but it doesn't matter. The full-time whistle blows and the Seagulls climb to fourth with a 3-1 win, Newcastle suffer their third defeat of the season!
19:20 BST - Right at the end! Mathys Tel scores in the 88th minute to give Bayern the lead. Can they see this one out? They'll have a 100% record in the league if they do...
Meanwhile in Brighton, Callum Wilson has pulled one back for Newcastle, but surely it's too little too late?
And in Italy, Giovanni Fabbian scores for Bologna in the 88th minute and are moments away from winning their first game of the season... but it's a terrible error from Cagliari goalkeeper Boris Radunovic. Goodness me!
19:15 BST - There are 15 minutes left on what has been a superb team performance from Brighton this evening.
19:00 BST - And that's his hat-trick! Evan Ferguson has a speculative shot at goal that takes a wicked deflection off Fabian Schar that goes beyond Nick Pope and into the back of the net. 3-0!
18:54 BST - Ooosh. Pick that one out! Just as Newcastle were pressing, Brighton move the ball to Evan Ferguson who sweeps the ball home from 20 yards for his second goal of the game. 2-0!
18:50 BST - There are 30 minutes left on the south coast. Can Newcastle come back?
Joshua Zirkzee has equalised for Bologna who are now 1-1 against Cagliari, while in Germany, Leroy Sane has scored for Bayern who are 1-1 against Monchengladbach. Time for a Kane winner?
18:37 BST - Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino has spoken to BBC Sport about his disappointment at seeing his team slump to a 1-0 home defeat to Nottingham Forest.
"We are disappointed because we did everything to try and get a different result but football is about not making mistakes and we made one mistake and paid for that," he said
"We created many chances but we did not score. This Premier League is really competitive if you don't score it is difficult to win."
18:35 BST - And we're back underway!
18:19 BST - It's half-time at the Amex between Brighton and Newcastle with the Seagulls still leading 1-0. Monchengladbach are also leading by the same score at half-time against Bayern.
There's a big 45 minutes coming up in both matches.
18:17 BST - There will be two minutes of injury time added on at the end of the first half in Brighton.
Meanwhile over in Serie A, Cagliari are 1-0 up against Bologna. La Dotta will drop into the relegation zone just above Lazio with defeat. It's currently half-time and you can follow the match here.
18:05 BST - Ko Itakura has given Monchengladbach a shock lead over Bayern. It could have been 2-0 almost immediately but Sven Ulreich pulled off a brilliant save to deny Julian Weigl.
17:55 BST - Brighton are on top at the Amex and have deservedly taken the lead against Newcastle with Evan Ferguson quickest to react to a Nick Pope fumble to make it 1-0. Moments later, Joao Pedro saw his shot blaze over the bar. Solly March has already seen his shot hit the post - will Brighton rue these missed chances?
17:48 BST - Over in France, neither Brest or Rennes could put the pressure on Monaco and played out a drab 0-0 draw. Monaco face Lens this evening and will go top of the table with a win.
Also looking to go top of their respective league is Bayern Munich who kicked-off their Bundesliga clash against Monchengladbach a short time ago. It's currently 0-0, and you can follow the match here.
17:38 BST - Erling Haaland has explained why Man City started their match against Fulham at a slow pace.
"Every year is like this at this club," he said. "We start a bit late and a bit sloppy because we play right until the last game (of every season) because we are the best club. It is how it is. We will only get better and better from here."
17:30 BST - And we're underway at the Amex Stadium.
17:17 BST - In Spain, Real Madrid have come from behind to beat Getafe with Jude Bellingham scoring the winner in the 95th minute.

But here's how they line-up today...
16:58 BST - Erling Haaland scores his hat-trick in the sixth minute of injury time!
The full time whistle blows and Man City go top of the Premier League with a 5-1 win over Fulham, as Tottenham climb to second after coming from behind to beat Burnley - who drop to the bottom - 5-2.

16:40 BST - There's roughly 15 minutes left - Chelsea are still trailing to Nottingham Forest but are dominating play. Can they find a breakthrough or will Forest hang on?
In Germany there were 23 goals scored in five Bundesliga matches this afternoon with Monchengladbach v Bayern Munich still to come. I bet Harry Kane will want to add to that tally. Kick off is at 5.30pm.
16:28 BST - It's now five for Spurs! Son Heung-Min has a hat-trick to maintain their perfect start to the season. A few moments later, Erling Haaland scores his second of the game from the penalty spot as Man City take a 4-1 lead over Fulham, while David Brooks gives Bournemouth a 2-1 lead at Brentford.
Over in Spain, Real Madrid have equalised against Getafe.
16:25 BST - Real Madrid are currently trailing to Getafe at half-time. Borja Mayoral put the Azulones up in the 11th minute but have faced relentless pressure since. Can they hang on in the second half?

16:15 BST - Nottingham Forest have taken the lead at Chelsea! Anthony Elanga - who came on as a first-half substitute - finds the bottom corner with a first-time shot. Forest will climb above Chelsea in the table with a win here.
16:05 BST - Whilst we get back underway in the Premier League, Stuttgart have gone 5-0 up against Freiburg - it's the 20th goal of the afternoon in the Bundesliga with just five games playing...
15:54 BST - It's half-time! Manchester City and Tottenham both lead at the break with Brentford, Bournemouth, Chelsea and Forest all level.
15:46 BST - We're into injury time at the end of the first-half around the grounds. Spurs have come from behind to lead at Burnley with a thumping drive from Cristian Gabriel Romero, and Man City have retaken the lead against Fulham with a controversial goal from Nathan Ake following a VAR review.
15:40 BST - There have been goals at every Premier League game so far today, apart from at Stamford Bridge where Chelsea and Nottingham Forest have yet to have a shot on target.
The Blues are currently dominating play however, with 68% possession.

15:22 BST - Son Heung-Min has levelled for Spurs at Burnley. Chelsea v Nottingham Forest and Man City v Fulham are still goalless.
In the Championship, Rotherham have taken a shock lead at home to Norwich - Rotherham were joint-bottom of the league ahead of kick-off and the Canaries were looking to go top with a win, but it's early, of course.
15:10 BST - Lyle Foster has put Burnley 1-0 up against Tottenham and Brentford have taken the lead against Bournemouth, courtesy of a Mathias Jensen strike.

14:55 BST - Over in Germany, Stuttgart have scored three goals in the opening 19 minutes to stun Freiburg, who were joint-top of the Bundesliga ahead of today! You can keep track of that match here.
