After Chelsea who beat Southampton heavily Southampton heavily (4-0) or Aston Villa which sank on the lawn of Crystal Palace (4-1), the 27th day of the Premier League continued this Wednesday. There was notably the right to a top shock between the second arsenal and the third Nottingham Forest. Relegated to eleven points of leader Liverpool (the Reds played one more match), the Gunners had to prevail so as not to lose their last thin hopes of title. For their part, the premises had an opportunity to return to three points from their evening opponent and especially to distance their distance from their competitors in the race for the Champions League. And the start of the match was to the advantage of the players of Nuno Espirito Santo. Driven by their audience, the Forest players were managing the team of Mikel Arteta who was going to wait 20 minutes to get out of his camp. It was nevertheless with the way since Riccardo Calafiori came to hit the right post (23rd). Otherwise the first period was quite disappointing between two solid formations defensively, but little inspired in attack.
On the return from the locker room, Arsenal was going to show more things and was going to get corners. A weapon that the Gunners and Mikel Merino saw his head be pushed back by Matz Sels (51st). The Belgian porter was intractable in the air while the Londoners multiplied the assaults and the centers to force their destiny. However, that was not enough to make Nottingham Forest bend enough which was not to be outdone and reacted at the end of the game. Finally, the initiatives of the two training courses gave nothing and no goal was scored. With this 0-0 draw, Arsenal has 10 points ahead of Liverpool (which leads 1-0 against Newcastle) and can even be at 13 points from the Reds after the evening. Nottingham Forest remains third, but has only one point ahead of Manchester City (4th) and Chelsea (5th).
Manchester City thanks Erling Haaland and Ederson Moraes
We had left Manchester City (5th) on a defeat against the leader Liverpool (2-0) and the Pep Guardiola team wanted to resume its fourth place chipped yesterday by Chelsea. To do this, it was necessary to succeed in his trip to the lawn of Tottenham (13th) which remained on three successes of rank. Galvanized by the return of Erling Haaland, Manchester City put himself in battle order. The Norwegian would quickly highlight himself, but Guglielmo Vicario was going to repel his strike (8th), but the Mancunian scorer was going to take his revenge. Benefiting from a nice center at the ground of Jérémy Doku on the left side, Erling Haaland made the difference by scoring (1-0, 12th). The Sky Blues were going to multiply the attempts to take shelter since Savinho struck just above the transverse bar (28th) before Guglielmo Vicario prevents Erling Haaland from the Doublé (30th).
Balled, Tottenham had only one head of Kevin Danso pushed by Ederson Moraes to put himself under the tooth (45th +1). In the second period, the Spurs would however offer another face. Served by Mathys Tel, Wilson Odobert was going to touch the left post (56th) to ring the revolt. On a corner, Rodrigo Bentancur in turn placed a bandor, but his head was captured by Ederson Moraes (64th) before that of Brennan Johnson passed over the frame (68th). Ederson Moraes was still going to intervene at the end of the game against Heung-Min Son (84th). In the last moments, Erling Haaland was going to afford a double (90th +5) but he made a hand and his realization was refused. Sufficient to win 1-0 and allow Manchester City to resume 4th place by returning to 1 point from Nottingham Forest (3rd).
Manchester United is scary
Fifteenth of the Premier League, Manchester United wanted to revive against the relegation Ipswich Town (18th) in his lair of Old Trafford, but it did not start as expected. Following a long opening in the back of the Mancunian defense, Patrik Dorgu and André Onana were guilty of a big disagreement and that allowed Jaden Philogene-Bidace to score in the goal of great open (1-0, 4th). The start of a fairly crazy match between the two teams. After this failed start, the Red Devils were going to raise their heads and Samy Morsy was going to push the ball to the bottom of his own goals following a free kick by Bruno Fernandes (1-1, 22nd). The Portuguese's paw brought the danger since on corner, Harry Maguire deviated from his head, but the goalkeeper rejected before intervening on a strike from Diogo Dalot. However, Matthijs de Ligt was on the lookout to give the advantage to MU (2-1, 26th). Nevertheless, Manchester United was still going to be scuttled with a very dangerous sole of Patrick Dorgu on Omari Hutchinson who led to the expulsion of the Danish (43rd).
The punishment was immediate since Jaden Philogene-Bidace on a right side center which was not touched by Liam Delap was going to surprise André Onana (2-2, 45th +2). Assommé, Manchester United, immediately raised his head after the break on a corner struck by Bruno Fernandes and taken up victoriously by Harry Maguire at the penalty spot (3-2, 48th). Behind, the rhythm fell and that benefited Manchester United which won 3-2 in pain and dates back to 14th place while Ipswich Town remains 18th at 5 points from the first non-relegation. Finally, the last match opposed two mid -table teams, namely Brentford (11th) and Everton (15th). At home, the Bees dominated the debates during the first act and it is very logically that the Congolese Yoane Wissa was going to capsize the team of Thomas Frank just before the break (1-0, 45th +4). In the second half, the former Lorientais thought of offering a double, but he was offside on a Mikkel Damsgaard caviar for Keane Lewis-Potter, the latter procrastinated and found Yoane Wissa who marked in an illegal way (70th). Finally, Everton was going to return to a sublime center of Vitaliy Mykolenko taken over in the second post victoriously by the former Lyonnais Jake O'Brien (1-1, 77th). This 1-1 draw allows the two teams to leave with one point each.
