A blockbuster weekend of football saw plenty of goals, upsets and more across Europe's top leagues.
Arsenal took the sole lead atop the Premier League after a 1-0 win away to Liverpool, after Manchester City were defeated by Brighton & Hove Albion. Chelsea strolled past a hapless Manchester United 2-0, while Tottenham kept their winning run going.
Over in Spain, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona all racked up comfortable wins, with the LALIGA status quo remaining. Lazio took the lead atop Serie A, after Inter Milan lost the derby to AC Milan, while Roma, Como and Juventus all picked up wins to stay in the hunt.
Borussia Dortmund grabbed a late draw in Der Klassiker, to remain joint-top of the Bundesliga alongside Bayern Munich. Paris Saint-Germain remained top of Ligue 1 with a 5-1 win over Le Havre, with Lille two points behind after a 1-0 win over Lens.
