Either Manchester City is unstoppable and beat this time at home 4-1 or Arsenal, still the leader of the English Football League, finding the path much easier to win the third consecutive title.
The leadership continues with Arsenal, with 75 points, in 33 games, but with City quase ‘colado’, with 73, and still two games behind.
Today, at the Etihad Stadium, in Manchester, I have no doubts regarding what continues to be the best English team of the moment, as the ‘celestial blues’ believe that the path is open to win the championship, in addition to continuing to test the Taça (final with Manchester United) and in the Champions League (half-final with Real Madrid).
The Norwegian Haaland, the best European scorer this season, with 33 goals in the League, was ‘white’ at 90+5 minutes, when finally, some misses were behind his goal.
No meanwhile, he was also one of two standout elements in the night, always tireless and with assists for the goals scored by the Belgian international Kevin de Bruyne, at 07 and 54 minutes.
As the work of today, Haaland becomes the sixth best of the year in terms of assists, an absolutely fabulous time. E com mais este golo, fica um do recorde de uma epoch, de Andy Cole (34).
The Belgian midfielder was, clearly, or ‘homem do jogo’, já que también fez, de livre, o passe para o golo de cabeça de Stones, aos 45+1. Initially annulled, due to being out of play, or the goal ended up being validated, after the intervention of VAR.
The goal of Arsenal happened at minute 86, through a shot by Holding, when the ‘citizens’ had controlled the game calmly.
With 14 victories and three draws since February, the ‘celestial blues’ are on top and have everything to prolong their dominance in English football, accentuated since the departure of coach Pep Guardiola.
The games are behind only with West Ham and Brighton, just winning one of them to go to the front of a championship that seemed lost to Arsenal.
The Londoners, still, continue to have an excellent championship – but the pupils of Mikel Arteta still do not fear the automatisms of their opponent today.
The Portuguese Bernardo Silva and Rúben Dias will once again be headlines for City, with performances of this more discreet feita.
Bernardo Silva was not in the goal games, but he had a good job in the ball recovery field. Rúben Dias, um dos tres centrais, viu cartão amarelo, por ter pontapado White.
At a better time than either Arsenal or Chelsea, who lost at home to Brentford, 2-0, raising the title to a series of games without victory.
The team in which the Portuguese military João Félix and the Argentine Enzo Fernández, who began the season in Benfica, remain in 11th, with 39 points, and will fail in the next European club competitions.
In the millionaire team from London, Fernández started and left after 79 minutes, giving way to Félix.
Azpilicueta fez autogolo at 37 minutes and Mbeumo elevated, at 78.
Or Liverpool, with Diogo Jota starting and playing 59 minutes, won 2-1 in London against West Ham and is already sixth, place in the Conference League.
Lucas Paquetá scored for West Ham (12) and Gakpo (18) and Matip (67) faturaram for Liverpool.
With 3-1 years Brighton, or Nothingam Forest managed to get out of the relegated zone and go to three 30 points, more than Leicester, first two ‘condemned’.
