The date is Apr. 26, 2023, and one of the biggest games in the Premier League this season happened today, which may have determined who wins the league. The two teams that played this game were Arsenal and Manchester City. Arsenal is currently sitting in first place and Manchester City is currently the second place team. 

Going into this game, many believed that Manchester City would win, and they were right. It was an intense game, but the result would be 4-1. 

Two of the four goals for Manchester would come from Belgian midfielder Kevin De Bruyne. He put on a stellar performance for the team, creating amazing chances, and being able to put two goals in the back of the net. The other two goals would be scored by English defender John Stones, and Norwegian striker Erling Haaland. Haaland is currently the Premier League’s top scorer with 33 goals in 29 matches.

It is possible that with this loss, Arsenal may lose their spot at the top of the league, as City are only two points behind, and are eager to win it all.
