Manchester City took hold of their title destiny with an accomplished 4-1 conquest of title rivals Arsenal on Wednesday.
Kevin De Bruyne’s double along with John Stones’ VAR-awarded goal and Erling Haaland’s 49th strike of the season saw the Blues cut the gap to two points at the top with two games in hand. The hosts dominated the match at the Etihad, limiting Arsenal to a mere handful of half-chances aside from Rob Holding’s last consolation.
The win means City are still on for a treble, being also in the final of the FA Cup and the semi-finals of the Champions League. The defending champions are looking to lift their third league title in a row and have seven fixtures left to fulfil that mission.
