"Just three days after their Champions League dreams were shattered by a 3-0 defeat at Real Madrid, a second part of what until not long ago was a potential quadruple also went up in smoke."
"Pep Guardiola had admitted the title race would be "over" if his side dropped points, while just 20 minutes before kick-off at the London Stadium, Arsenal had snatched two late goals to beat Everton."
"It was also a big night at the other end of the pitch, with a point lifting West Ham out of the relegation zone for the first time since December."
Manchester City drew 1-1 with relegation-threatened West Ham, significantly damaging their title aspirations. Bernardo Silva gave City the lead, but Konstantinos Mavropanos equalized for West Ham. The result leaves City nine points behind Arsenal, who secured two late goals against Everton just before West Ham's match. This draw comes three days after City's 3-0 Champions League defeat to Real Madrid ended their quadruple hopes. Pep Guardiola had previously stated the title race would be over if City dropped points. For West Ham, the draw provided crucial relief, lifting them out of the relegation zone for the first time since December.
