Luis Suarez spent most of his first game for Atletico Madrid sitting in the stands at an empty Wanda Metropolitano stadium watching his new team-mates winning without him, the odd 60 to 70 persons in the stands started to clap and chant Uruguayo! Uruguayo! with 20 minutes to go coach Diego Simeone brought on his new striker, Atletico were already winning 3-0 and with only 14 touches he scored twice and provided an assist and won a penalty to complete quite an astonishing debut.

Man City first home game for the 20/21 season ended in disaster as they went down 5-2 to Leicester City. Despite taking an early lead through Riyad Mahrez, the visitors managed to get behind City's defense on a number of occasions and when they did, they punished some hesitant defending. The Foxes were awarded three penalties with Jamie Vardy bagging a hat-trick in the 5-2 loss
