Three Premier League talking points
Manchester City underlined their hunger to win an unprecedented fourth successive Premier League title with a vital victory against Manchester United.
Liverpool's Darwin Nunez kept the leaders just ahead of City with a controversial winner, while Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is feeling the heat.
AFP Sport looks at three talking points from this weekend's action:
SAME CITY, DIFFERENT LEAGUE
Manchester United threatened to cause a twist in the title race for nearly an hour at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, but Manchester City's 3-1 victory eventually did justice to the champions' dominance of their bitter rivals.
Only an astonishing miss from Erling Haaland and some fine goalkeeping by Andre Onana kept United's lead – given to them by a stunning strike from Marcus Rashford – intact until halftime.
Phil Foden finally turned the screw after the break by blasting into the top corner and then coolly slotting home his 18th goal of the season after a slick one-two with Julian Alvarez.
Haaland added the icing on the cake in stoppage-time to atone for his earlier miss and move second-placed City one point behind leaders Liverpool with 11 games left.
These two LOVE a derby!
