if manchester united, if my sister city had won, that would have been it. chester united being second, it is all about united dropping points next week and. it becomes a little bit tougher for manchester city, and those doubts will begin to creep in. exactly. they were very much in control, it was there as toulouse, in their hands. their next game will be at wembley against tottenham. it is not com pletely wembley against tottenham. it is not completely in their hands. you can see there are 13 points between manchester city and united. they will need to be 15 points, 16 points ahead after that match. it means that they will need to win against totte n ha m , that they will need to win against tottenham, but also hope for a horse for united. it is not fully in their hands. they do have those six games, though. people here are shouting, champions, champions! they know that the leaders there is. it is just a matter of when. 0bviously the leaders there is. it is just a matter of when. obviously very dejected for them notjust for this result but also that result

what of manchester city? quadruple not long ago, we will still end up with two trophies, but is there a sense that this season but is there a sense that this seasonis but is there a sense that this season is as long—awaited even though they will win the premier league? it is because of how fantastic they have been, they have dominated this premier league, co mforta bly dominated this premier league, comfortably the best side we have seen comfortably the best side we have seen for a number of years, creating chances, scoring goals at will, it has been fantastic to see. we thought we might win the quadruple, the unprecedented quadruple, but i'm still sure they will be really pleased, they will go on to lift the premier league trophy, the have already got a league cup behind them, so they will ultimately look back on it as hopefully the first of a few steps for them. liverpool will not be playing barcelona andy last four, how stunned when you buy the exit last night? —— in the last four. we do not expect barcelo

that sparked fury from manchester city. pep guardiola was sent to the stands. ook commands with roberto firmino making it 2—1 on the night. city's hope of a famous combat —— in the end. it was always going to be an incredibly difficult night for them. those results last week, those two defeats, first of all at anfield in the first leg. followed that by the defeat to manchester united here on saturday when they had a chance at winning the premier league. that was always going to be a difficult goal to —— below to come back from. pep guardiola will certainly be brewing that offside decision against leroy sane. that perhaps was the turning point of the match. 2—0 to manchester city at half—time, you could see they could go on and win the match. after that, there was no way fa ct the match. after that, there was no way fact for city. you mentioned losing to manchester united on the weekend. they will win the premier league but, what are the thoughts on if fizzling out? certainly they have been a remarkable team for 95% of the season but what has happened over the la

goalless draw in the home leg last weekend, largely thanks to a brilliant defensive display from manchester citynd not least due to to the number of saves karen bardsley made, including a last ditch effort in 89th minute. 0—0 today, but let me put it into context. leon are the defending champions and they going for their third consecutive title they are widely regarded as the best team the world. —— lyon. the manager says he feels it could be manchester city's time to get into the tie and win the whole competition. for them to do that, they will need to have the game of their lives this afternoon and i think he is right. day nine of the world snooker

heartbreak here again as for the second year running, manchester city have found themselves knocked outty only needed a score draw to progress and found themselves under wave after wave of attack early on. then a finish worthy of the occasion against herformer side. city then a finish worthy of the occasion against her former side. city failed to create any opportunities of their own. at the break they were down but not out, knowing a goal would still see them through. but the second half followed a similar pattern to the first, city defending heavily while offering little going forward, with the defending champions desperately searching for the second goal that would secure the victory. but in the end it wasn't needed. bronte's goal proving enough to send lyon through as they look to secure a fifth european title. for city, back to the drawing board. the result means manchester city's european dream is in tatters, and also after defeats in the leak out and the fa cup, the league title, now the only competition they can win, as they desperately avoid a trophy this season. today i though

kevin de bruyne scores for manchester city.t liverpool coming up, what was the feeling when the draw was made, were you happy, thinking you would rather get someone else?m made, were you happy, thinking you would rather get someone else? it is a tough draw because i think liverpool are a class team. sometimes predict the ball. but offensively they are a juggernaut. but in the end if you want to win titles unique to beat every team up maybe it is a bit bad for english would hope that you have two english teams coming to which other butjust the way it goes. do feel that last game you played at anfield, puts them at an advantage and make them feel they can get the better of this great team ? feel they can get the better of this great team? i think football in the tournament is different, the premier league is like 90 minutes and you will lose. with two legs everything needs to be right, you need good form, you need to play well, you need a bit of luck. anfield is a tough place obviously. they will be up tough place obviously. they

only their second home defeat of the season, they handed manchester city the title without the new championsk a ball. i think there will be several city fans who love the fact that united played a part in handing it back, although it is seeming as if the stores are lines if city could win against united and it didn't happen. much to city had to sit refocus and get themselves backin to sit refocus and get themselves back in gear against tottenham. we knew it was inevitable but we didn't think it would be united that would hand it to manchester city. arsenal may be through to the last four of the rugby league but are in danger of not finishing in the top six. they lost 2—1 at newcastle. abouta about a a0 point mark. matt ritchie with the winner. arsenal remain the only team in the top four divisions yet you had an away league point in 2018. celtic edge closer to back—to—back domestic travels after thrashing old firm rivals rangers and the scottish semifinals. a little over 20 minutes passed before the holders were ahead at hampden park thanks to tom rob each. celtic attempted to extend their u
