Liverpool and Brighton keep the Premier League ball off the grass
A prolonged aerial exchange tops fifteen new uploads, alongside Gabriel helping David Raya and Trey Nyoni's last-ditch defending.

The Ball Was In The Air For HOW LONG?! 😲
How long can a football match go without the ball touching the pitch? Long enough for the commentators to start laughing, in the Premier League's most-watched new upload.
"The Ball Was In The Air For HOW LONG?! 😲" turns Liverpool and Brighton's headers and volleys into a timed challenge. A short first attempt gives way to a much longer exchange, with Virgil van Dijk joining in and the counter reaching 25 seconds before the ball finally lands. The commentary's suggestion that it might be a day to keep the ball down proves particularly well timed.
The Short has passed two million views. In the comments, viewers wonder whether the players began keeping it airborne deliberately, compare the sequence to volleyball and Rocket League, and invoke the familiar playground rule that the floor is lava. That sense of an accidental game within the game is the clip's particular charm.
There was plenty of less cooperative defending elsewhere in the fifteen-upload week. "Gabriel Saves David Raya... TWICE 😅" revisits the Arsenal goalkeeper searching for a ball behind him, with Gabriel providing assistance. Trey Nyoni's desperate effort to deny Brighton a potential goal also drew a substantial audience. Those three uploads are currently the channel's busiest viewing spots.
Daily views across the official league channel are comfortably above their usual level, while subscribers were unchanged over the week. Among nearby football channels, Arsenal is also enjoying above-usual daily viewing; Liverpool and Manchester United are having quieter days by their own standards. The Premier League's lineup also makes room for Evanilson's Old Trafford finish and a tribute celebrating Harry Kane's Ballon d'Or win, but this week's biggest new attraction barely lets the ball near the ground.
