What happened: Everton and Manchester City played out a dramatic Premier League fixture that ended in a shared points result, according to Fabrizio Romano. A five-minute spell saw Manchester City concede twice, with Everton's Barry scoring from a Rohl assist to make it 3-1 in the 81st minute. Pep Guardiola visibly reacted to his side conceding two goals in quick succession.

Why it matters: The result has direct implications for the Premier League title race, with Arsenal and Manchester City level on points and goal difference with five games left. Dropped points for City open the door for Arsenal to seize control at the top. The Premier League itself flagged the five-minute spell as one that could define the title race.

What to watch: Watch Arsenal's next fixture for a chance to extend their lead at the summit, and monitor Guardiola's post-match comments amid ongoing speculation about his City future.
