MANCHESTER, England (AP): Chelsea's winning start to the Premier League was ended by a dramatic goal from one of their greatest ever players, while Manchester United's all-star attack was undermined by a jittery defence in a 5-3 loss at Leicester on Sunday.

Frank Lampard struggled to contain his emotions after grabbing 10-man Manchester City's 85th-minute equaliser in a 1-1 draw against Chelsea, the team who released the former England midfielder this summer after his club-record 211 goals in 13 years at Stamford Bridge.

"It is a special and weird day," said Lampard, who was applauded before and after the game by Chelsea's traveling support.

Lampard was talking about his own experience but he could easily have been summing up an afternoon full of surprises in England's top division, which finished with Chelsea holding a three-point lead after five games.

Surprise home defeats by Tottenham and Everton were upstaged by an implosion from Manchester United, who conceded four goals in 20 minutes to lose a Premier League game for the first time after holding a two-goal lead.

Robin van Persie's header and Angel Di Maria's exquisite chip put United 2-0 ahead after 16 minutes and Ander Herrera regained the team's two-goal cushion at 3-1 in the 57th minute.

However, penalties by David Nugent and Leonardo Ulloa, the second after Tyler Blackett's sending-off, came either side of goals by Esteban Cambiasso and Jamie Vardy as United's defence fell apart at King Power Stadium.

West Bromwich Albion beat Spurs 1-0 through James Morrison's goal to climb off the bottom of the standings and Crystal Palace also grabbed a first win of the season, defeating Everton 3-2 at Goodison Park.

Lampard's first goal for City overshadowed strong words by City manager Manuel Pellegrini, who described Chelsea as a 'small team' because of what he perceived as defensive tactics.

"I think we played against exactly the same team we played against Stoke here," Pellegrini added, referring to his team's 1-0 loss to Stoke in City's last home game.
