In the English Premier League, five matches of the fifth round were played at 5 PM.
The match between the "Wolves" and London's "Chelsea" teams attracted a lot of interest. Tammy Abraham's hat-trick and Chelsea's victory were recorded in a seven-goal showdown.
These matches fantastically unfolded for 21-year-old Chelsea striker T. Abraham, who scored three goals in less than 20 minutes. He became the youngest "Blues" player to score a hat-trick in the Premier League.
Two more goals were added by other two Chelsea academy graduates - defender Fikayo Tomori and Mason Mount.
This was the second victory for the Chelsea team this season.
Manchester United players had to settle for a victory due to Marcus Rashford's penalty shot in the 11th minute against Leicester.
It was also the second victory for the Man Utd team.
A strong performance was held at their home stadium by the London Tottenham team, who crushed Crystal Palace 4-0. Heung-min Son scored twice, Erik Lamela and an own goal by the opponent gave Spurs a commanding lead within the first 40 minutes.
Tottenham, along with Leicester, Man Utd, and Chelsea, have eight points each.
Other matches ended with a minimal Southampton victory and a draw between Burnley and Brighton.
