PREMIER LEAGUE: UNITED, REDS ALSO HELD TO DRAWS

Manchester City's Premier League title challenge suffered a huge setback as managerless Chelsea salvaged a dramatic 1-1 draw, while Harrison Reed's stunning last-gasp strike gave Fulham a 2-2 draw against Liverpool yesterday.

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim sparked fresh talk about his future with a fiery press conference after his side rescued a 1-1 draw against bitter rivals Leeds.

But it was City's spluttering attempt to stop Arsenal running away with the title that took the spotlight as they fell six points behind the Gunners.

After Arsenal's 3-2 win at Bournemouth on Saturday, Pep Guardiola's second-placed side had no margin for error against troubled opponents at the Etihad Stadium.
