West Ham vs Manchester City LIVE!

Man City battled back from two goals down and missed a late penalty to keep the title race alive after a rip-roaring 2-2 draw at West Ham.

Jarrod Bowen’s first-half double threatened to hand the initiative to second-placed Liverpool, who would have relished the challenge of drawing level on points and gnawing away at the goal difference at Southampton on Tuesday night.

But Jack Grealish pulled one back after the break and an own goal by Vladimir Coufal hauled City level to at least keep their title destiny in their hands.

Pep Guardiola’s side were then awarded a spot-kick which, had they scored it, would have left them needing just a point against Aston Villa next weekend to retain the Premier League crown.

But Lukasz Fabianski saved Riyad Mahrez’s effort to ensure City likely still have work to do if they are to lift the title.

Manuel Lanzini 6

Relatively quiet afternoon for the Argentine before being replaced for Noble’s farewell.

Jarrod Bowen 9

Took his 11th Premier League goal of the season brilliantly from a tight angle after rounding Ederson, then scored 12th with another smart finish. Booked for cynical foul on Jack Grealish, who will surely soon be an England teammate.

Michail Antonio 7

Gave Fernandinho major problems whenever given the chance to run into space and set up Bowen’s second but wasted brilliant chance to score third himself.

So then, Man City have a four-point lead at the top of the Premier League.

They’ve played a game more than Liverpool, who can close the gap to just a single point heading into the final day of the season if they beat Southampton on Tuesday.

If the Reds draw, they’ll need a seven-goal swing on the final day. If Southampton win, Man City win the title.

Got it? Good.

FT: West Ham 2-2 Man City

It finishes level at the London Stadium!

City will feel it should have been three points, after that late Mahrez penalty, but they will reflect on that being a crucial point.

If Liverpool lose against Southampton in midweek, the Premier League will be City’s.

90+3 mins: Antonio down again, Antonio told to get up again.

It’s fair to see he and Anthony Taylor have not got on very well at all this afternoon.

90 mins: Four minutes added on.

Who knows what happens from here! City will be happy with the point you feel.

Well, then. How big a moment could that prove in the Premier League title race? Lukasz Fabianski may never buy a pint on Merseyside again in his life (granted, he probably isn’t there often).
