Tottenham won the North London Derby against Arsenal while the Mersyside Derby ended in a stalemate. Manchester United also dropped points at West Ham United in a 1-1 draw.Here is a look at the top 7 goals this weekend:

#7 Jermain Defoe - Sunderland

Defoe is back and how! He has already scored twice since his return to England and is looking fitter and sharper than ever. Defoe received the ball on the half line, surged at the Swansea defenders at pace and drilled a shot into the bottom corner giving Sunderland an unexpected lead against the run of play. The match ended 1-1 with Defoe taking plaudits for this sensational strike.

FACT: With his goal against Swansea, Defoe has now scored against all the 20 teams playing in this season's Barclays Premier League throughout his career!
