TEENAGER Nathan Redmond earned Norwich City their first Barclays Premier League victory of the season with his first goal for the club.
The £3.2 million summer signing from Birmingham City scored the only goal of his side's 1-0 victory over Southampton at Carrow Road, firing low past Artur Boruc in the 68th minute. The visitors' Adam Lallana hit a post in the first half.
Jermaine Pennant netted for the first time in 63 matches to give Stoke City a 1-0 success at West Ham. The substitute struck with a 25-yard free-kick in the 82nd minute.
Newcastle United edged past Fulham 1-0 at St James' Park thanks to Hatem Ben Arfa scoring their first goal of the season after 86 minutes.
Yohan Cabaye came off the bench for his first appearance of the season despite his future remaining uncertain, with Newcastle having turned down a £10million offer from Arsenal.
Cardiff City held visitors Everton to a 0-0 draw, the Goodison Park side having been denied what appeared to be a clear penalty in the first half when Leighton Baines was brought down by Gary Medel.
Crystal Palace got off the mark with a 3-1 win over Sunderland. Danny Gabbidon opened the scoring at Selhurst Park, with Steven Fletcher equalising after 64 minutes.
However, John O'Shea was sent off for hacking down Palace striker Dwight Gayle after 79 minutes. Gayle stroked home the penalty and Stuart O'Keefe made it 3-1 in injury time.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.

That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
