Title Hopes Gone, Arsenal Second Place Jeopardy Real
This loss leaves Arsenal on 67 points. Manchester City won 1-0 against Wolves, closing the gap to just three points. With Liverpool already champions, Arsenal’s focus is on finishing second – a spot they’ve held for two seasons. This defeat means Arsenal second place jeopardy is now a real risk.
Pressure Cooker Finish for Gunners
