Liverpool hasn’t been this close to Manchester City in three months. The gap is down to one point in a Premier League title race that looks set to go to the wire after Liverpool’s 2-0 win at Arsenal. That’s nine straight wins for Liverpool, which has a momentum that City can’t quite match with nine games left of the season. Diogo Jota and substitute Roberto Firmino scored for Liverpool.

Tottenham moved thre points behind Arsenal.
