Premier League leaders Manchester City and title challengers Liverpool and Chelsea all needed penalties to secure victories on Saturday, leaving the top of the table unchanged.
Manchester City beat Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Etihad thanks to a Raheem Sterling spot kick after a controversial penalty award.
England forward Sterling's 100th Premier League goal was just enough to earn leaders City victory over 10-man Wolves. Referee Jon Moss ruled the ball had hit the Portuguese midfielder's arm and although the television images suggested it had struck him in the upper ribs, VAR backed the on-field decision.
After the break, Martinez produced a brilliant reflex stop to keep out a powerful header from Virgil van Dijk but Liverpool's pressure finally paid off when Salah went down in the box under challenge from Tyrone Mings."We’ve lost to a soft penalty because if you watch it properly, Tyrone’s been fouled first," said Gerrard.
Tuchel's men turned the game around when referee Chris Kavanagh, after a VAR check, awarded them a penalty after a Raphinha challenge on Antonio Rudiger and Jorginho fired high into the net. United lacked ideas at Norwich, with home keeper Tim Krul making two fine saves in the second half before Ronaldo won and converted his spot-kick against the second-half run of play.
