A hat-trick from Tim Cahill helped Everton record a 4-2 victory over Norwich at Carrow Road.

The Australia midfielder had given the Toffees a 2-0 half-time lead, but they came unstuck as Andrew Crofts and Andrew Surman levelled things up for the npower Championship side.

But further goals from Diniyar Bilyaletdinov and Cahill sealed the win.

Fraizer Campbell continued his excellent pre-season form as his goal helped Sunderland to a 2-1 win over Leicester at Walkers Stadium.

Campbell, who grabbed four goals against Hull last weekend, opened the scoring before Andy King equalised for the Foxes.

Jordan Henderson's long-range strike slipped through goalkeeper Chris Weale's grasp for the winner.

Stoke continued their pre-season preparations as they claimed a 2-1 win over Burnley at Huddersfield's Galpharm Stadium.

Turkey international Tuncay Sanli had put the Potters, wearing their new away kit for the first time, in front but Graham Alexander levelled from the spot.

Burnley was not level for long though as Michael Tonge's long-range goal gave it the win.

Carlton Cole bagged his fourth pre-season goal as West Ham picked up a fifth straight success against Ipswich at Portman Road.

Goals from David Murphy and Seb Larsson were enough to give Birmingham a 2-1 win at Derby, Gareth Roberts getting a goal back for the Rams.

Newcastle recovered from two goals down to draw 2-2 with PSV Eindhoven at St James' Park in a match which marked the one-year anniversary of the death or Sir Bobby Robson.

The Dutch side had surged ahead through Ola Toivonen and Balazs Dzsudzsak, but Ryan Taylor and Leon Best ensured that honours were even at full-time.

Bolton drew a blank on the first match of their mini-tour of Scotland as they were held to a goalless draw by Falkirk.

Johan Elmander clipped the post for the Trotters, who were beaten 3-0 by Oldham in midweek.

Wolves suffered a 3-1 defeat against Championship outfit Leeds at Elland Road.

Max Gradel had given the hosts the lead only for Matt Jarvis to equalise. But the Yorkshire club was not to be denied as goals from Lloyd Sam and Bradley Johnson secured the win.

There was also victory for a Liverpool XI, as they beat Skelmersdale United 3-2.

EPL-The Final Day
14/05/2012 4:41:36 PM
What a day it was; Manchester City had the title, then lost it, then had it again. Bolton were safe, then just as quickly they were gone. Arsenal secured their place in next season's Champions League, while fourth-placed Tottenham must wait until Sunday morning to see whether they will join them or not.
