Manchester City beat Arsenal 4-1, taking the Cityzens two points behind the Gunners with two games in hand and closer to a third consecutive Premier League title
The Premier League title is now Manchester City's to lose after a 4-1 rout of Arsenal on Wednesday.
Pep Guardiola's team looked like champions-in-waiting with a ruthless win over the team that has led the way for much of the season.
Arsenal is still out in front in the standings, but by the time Erling Haaland completed the scoring in stoppage time, the Londoners' title challenge looked effectively over.
City remains two points behind the league leader but with two games in hand appears to be on course to be crowned champion for the third year in a row.
“It is in our hands,” Guardiola said. “Until today, I preferred Arsenal’s position because if Arsenal beat us it is in their hands. Now it’s our destiny."
After 17 games without defeat, it is hard to see City slipping up from here.
