JUST IN: Man City beat Arsenal as Premier League title race hots up
Manchester City minutes ago beat Arsenal to further pile pressure on the Premier League leaders.
With their 2-1 victory at the Etihad, Pep Guardiola's side are now three points behind the Gunners with game in hand.
Hope had risen for Arsenal when Kai Havertz pounced on goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma’s first half error 107 seconds after Cherki’s opener. Haaland scored the second-half winner.
Arsenal would have gone nine points clear of Manchester City with a win.
Now, their defeat means that their lead is now just three points.
The implication is that if City beat Burnley in their game in hand in midweek by two clear goals or more, then they will be the Premier League leaders. (Based on BBC reports)
