Foden keeps Manchester City's title chase alive

The battle for the Premier League title is still alive. Second-placed Manchester City beat Crystal Palace 3-0 and are two points behind league leaders Arsenal with two matches remaining.

Englishman Phil Foden was the architect of City's home victory. First, he beautifully heeled - with his back to goal - a deep ball to Antoine Semenyo, who made it 1-0 in the 22nd minute.

Barely 20 minutes later, Foden assisted Egyptian Omar Marmoush, who made it 2-0. With seven minutes left in regulation time, Savinho responded to make it 3-0.

City now have 77 points - two points behind league leaders Arsenal. The London club face relegation-threatened Burnley at home in the penultimate round on Monday. Manchester City host Tottenham on Tuesday; Tottenham are fighting for a new contract.
