The celebrations during Manchester City’s 2-0 win against Tottenham on Tuesday were testament to the importance of the high-stakes match as the reigning champion took a huge step towards a fourth straight English Premier League title. City now jumps two points ahead of Arsenal at the top of the table, meaning a win in its final game of the season against West Ham would secure the unprecedented feat. It was Erling Haaland who once again made the difference, with the striker scoring two second-half goals during a cagey game in north London. Despite the emotional celebrations from both the players and fans after each of the goals, City manager Pep Guardiola said his team knows the job isn’t done yet. “I like that they were so happy in the locker room but they know it’s not done,” he told reporters. “I didn’t see an extra celebration. They know perfectly it will be tough. “All we have to do is win that game. To have the chance to live that possibility we are so fortunate.”
