LEADERS BATTLE BACK FOR POINT

-

MANCHESTER City came from two down to draw 2-2 with West Ham and edge closer to clinching the Premier League title. Two goals from Jarrod Bowen in the first half at the London Stadium threatened to throw Liverpool a lifeline.

But Jack Grealish pulled one back shortly after halftime and Vladimir Coufal headed into his own net in the 69th minute to draw the league leaders level. City had a golden chance to win it when they were awarded a late penalty but Lukasz Fabianski saved Riyad Mahrez’s effort. The point leaves Man City four points ahead of Liverpool with a match to play, although the Reds have a game in hand.
