/Manchester City ramped up the pressure on Premier League leaders Arsenal by strolling to a 3-0 win over Fulham on Wednesday to cut the gap at the top to three points. Pep Guardiola has sought solutions to his side’s second-half slumps that have cost them precious points in the title race. 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. The January signings of Semenyo and Marc Guehi have added firepower up front and steel at the back to reignite City’s title charge. Haaland scored his first non-penalty Premier League goal since December 20 when he drilled into the bottom corner from outside the box on 39 minutes.
