Breaking news from the world of sport: A remarkable finale - but will 13 chaotic minutes cost Man City title? To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. This video can not be played Figure caption, Doku scores late to salvage draw in six-goal thriller By Shamoon Hafez Manchester City reporter at Hill Dickinson Stadium Published 3 minutes ago A chaotic 13-minute spell from Manchester City in the second half of a six-goal thriller at Everton could prove to be the visitors' undoing in this season's Premier League title race.
Monday's thrilling match was one of the games of the season and the result, following an incredible finale, might well prove pivotal at the end of the campaign. Pep Guardiola's side led 1-0 through Jeremy Doku's fine opener but conspired to fall apart by conceding three times through Thierno Barry's double - one goal gifted by a Marc Guehi error - and Jake O'Brien's header in just 13 minutes. Though Erling Haaland instantly pulled a goal back and Belgium winger Doku earned a point with a stunning late leveller, City ultimately lost ground on leaders Arsenal this weekend.
Match Details
And that means the destiny of the trophy is entirely in the Gunners' hands. This fixture at Hill Dickinson Stadium was deemed a tricky game for Guardiola's side to negotiate - and that turned out to be the case, with City dropping two points against a side aiming to secure a European spot. "It's better than losing," said Guardiola.
"It shows what type of team they are. Before it was, now it's not. We will see what happens.
" Arsenal now know three wins from their final three matches will secure a first title since 2004. Former Gunners striker Thierry Henry said on Sky Sports: "I wouldn't be thinking 'we can afford to drop points now' if I was Arsenal , but it is back in their hands, that is a fact. "I am going to stay in my lane, I am not going to celebrate too early.
Reactions and Expectations
" Man City score late equaliser but title hopes dented in Everton thriller When can the title be won? After their draw at Everton , City's maximum points tally this season is 83. Arsenal are currently on 76 points - so they know three wins from their final three games will clinch the title.
The Gunners' goal difference is also four better than City's, giving them a slight edge there as well. There is a scenario where Arteta's side could win the league as early as Wednesday, 13 May. Should they beat West Ham on Sunday and Man City lose to Brentford a day earlier, another City defeat against Crystal Palace a few days later would hand Arsenal the title with two games remaining.
But if both teams keep winning, the race will go down to the wire. "That is a big dent in the title race for Manchester City , but you have got to pick yourself up and go again," former Blackpool midfielder Charlie Adam said on Radio 5 Live. There may still be plenty of twists and turns yet to come.
The story has climbed to the top of the sports agenda, with fans and analysts following closely.
