Manchester City were left with VAR to thank after their second goal vs Arsenal was allowed following a long check.
Pep Guardiola’s side had already assumed full control of the Premier League title showdown, with Kevin De Bruyne putting them in front thanks to a wonderful individual goal. Despite coming into the game as the second-placed team, City dominated the current leaders and could have widened their gap with Aaron Ramsdale denying Erling Haaland on more than one occasion.
But the champions weren’t to be denied and on the stroke of the half-time whistle, it was 2-0 with John Stones getting on the scoresheet. The England international expertly headed past Ramsdale following an expert delivery from De Bruyne.
