Relentless Man City keep pressure on Arsenal in Premier League title race

LONDON: Manchester City kept the heat on Premier League leaders Arsenal on Sunday , seeing off a feisty challenge from Nottingham Forest after Mikel Arteta's men held their nerve to beat Tottenham.

The Gunners raced into a 3-0 lead at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the early kick-off on Sunday, surviving a late fright to win 3-2 and temporarily move four points clear at the top of the table. But Forest, who remain just one point clear of the drop zone with three games to play, will rue a number of squandered opportunities, including two glaring misses from forward Chris Wood.

Cristian Romero and Son Heung-min struck for Tottenham after the interval to set up a nervous finish, but the visitors clung on by their fingertips. "I was praying," he said."There were so many Spurs players in the box. It was a really emotional game. We had to dig in and suffer and react. I'm very pleased with the way the team has done it."
