Man Utd outclass Arsenal
In round 24 of the English Premiership, champions Manchester United outclassed Arsenal to win 3-1 at the Emirates.
Before this match Arsenal had lost just once in the league at home, a 3-nil to Chelsea but Man Utd were 2-nil by half time and scored a further goal before the Gunners got their consolation.
The result leaves the Gunners in third place but United are now just one point behind league leaders Chelsea who have a game in hand.
Chelsea won its match against Burnley 2-1 to remain top whilst the loss for Burnley means the team remains in the relegation zone.
In the battle for fourth place there were wins for Manchester City, Aston Villa and Liverpool whilst Tottenham drew.
The draw was costly to Spurs and even though they are still in fourth place, they are only one point ahead of Liverpool and Man City.
The round will finish with a match between Sunderland and Stoke.
