Manchester City clinched a crucial 2-0 victory against Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday, positioning themselves within reach of a historic fourth consecutive Premier League title. The win places them with a two-point lead over second-placed Arsenal as they head into the final round of games on Sunday.
Erling Haaland emerged as the hero for Manchester City, netting both goals in the encounter. His first came in the 51st minute, capitalizing on Kevin De Bruyne's cross to break the deadlock.

Guardiola's side entered the match trailing Arsenal by a single point and under immense pressure to secure maximum points. Haaland's goals alleviated some of the tension, but substitute goalkeeper Stefan Ortega played a crucial role in preserving the lead, particularly with a decisive save against Son Heung-min in the dying minutes.
With this victory, Manchester City also ensured Aston Villa's qualification for the Champions League, securing fourth place ahead of Tottenham. The stage is now set for a thrilling finale as City prepares to face West Ham in their last league game of the season, while Arsenal takes on Everton at home.
