Manchester City saw Liverpool dismantle Manchester United yesterday and rise to first place in the table, but tonight (Wednesday) the Citizens returned to where they want to be - at the top.
The Blues defeated Brighton 0: 3 at the Etihad Stadium thanks to goals from Riyad Mahraz (53), Phil Fuden (65) and Bernardo Silva (82), and after 32 rounds they are one point ahead of the Mighty Reds, in a fight that will last until the last minute.
In the London derby Arsenal surprised Chelsea at Stamford Bridge with a huge 2: 4.
Eddie Nakietta scored first (13), Timo Werner equalized quickly (17), Emile Smith Rowe returned the lead to the Gunners (27) and Cesar Aspliquata (32) equalized again in a crazy half hour of football.
In the second half Nekita completed a double (57) and set up a 2: 3 lead, with Bukayo Saka nailing the fourth in extra time.
