"But City had the job done by halftime as three goals in 15 first-half minutes from Antoine Semenyo, Nico O'Reilly and Erling Haaland secured a 20th consecutive win over Fulham in all competitions. Arsenal can stretch their lead back to six points when they visit in-form Brentford on Thursday. But the Gunners' advantage has reduced from nine points to three in four days to give City hope of denying them a first league title in 22 years."
"Semenyo swooped for his fifth goal since joining from Bournemouth after Sander Berge inadvertently turned Matheus Nunes' cross towards his own goal. The Ghana international then turned provider for O'Reilly to coolly chip over Bernd Leno at the end of a lightning counter-attack. Haaland kept his cool to score from the penalty spot in stoppage time for City's first win at Anfield in front of a crowd since 2003 on Sunday."
Manchester City beat Fulham 3-0 to reduce Arsenal's Premier League lead to three points. City scored three times within 15 first-half minutes through Antoine Semenyo, Nico O'Reilly and Erling Haaland. Pep Guardiola has sought solutions to the team's second-half slumps that have cost points in the title race. City built momentum from a late comeback win over Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday. January signings Semenyo and Marc Guehi have strengthened City's attack and defence. Arsenal can return to a six-point lead if they beat Brentford. The Gunners' advantage fell from nine points to three in four days.
