Jamie Carragher delivers shock Man City verdict as Tottenham hand Arsenal major title boost

Tottenham placed a major dent into Manchester City's Premier League title hopes the day after Arsenal suffered only their second league loss of the season against Everton. Pep Guardiola's men had the opportunity to close the gap down to the Gunners to two points but they were paid a massive favour by their north London rivals who beat City at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday

Harry Kane was the man who provided the winning goal, breaking Jimmy Greaves' 266 goal record in the process, and despite his goal coming in the 15th minute, City were unable to find a way back into the game. That win took Spurs to within one point of Newcastle, who hold the final Champions League qualification spot.

Not only does the victory secured by Antonio Conte's men help their top-four charge but they have also handed Arsenal a significant boost in the title race after they lost 1-0 to Everton on Saturday.
