Manchester City delivered a dominant performance, defeating Crystal Palace 3-0 to keep their Premier League title hopes alive.
Goals from John Stones, Manuel Akanji, and a late strike from Gabriel Jesus sealed the win for City at Selhurst Park.
The result means that had Manchester City faltered, Arsenal would have been crowned champions on Wednesday. However, City’s win ensures the title race will go down to the wire.
City now trail Arsenal by two points with games in hand as they continue their pursuit of a potential treble this season.
