EPL table: Man City thrash Crystal Palace to go two points behind Arsenal

Manchester City Defeats Crystal Palace, Closes Gap on Arsenal
Manchester City maintained pressure on Arsenal in the Premier League title race with a decisive 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace on Wednesday night.
Entering the match five points behind the Gunners, City aimed to reduce the deficit after Arsenal’s narrow 1-0 win against West Ham last weekend. Despite making six changes to his starting lineup, manager Pep Guardiola’s squad dominated the contest.
Phil Foden played a crucial role, providing assists for goals from Antoine Semenyo and Omar Marmoush before halftime. Savinho added a third goal in the closing minutes of the match, bringing City within two points of Arsenal.
Both teams have two fixtures remaining in the season. Arsenal will face Burnley on Monday night, while City will travel to Bournemouth on Tuesday.
