Premier League roundup: 3 things we learned from this weekend

Chelsea fights off international blues, Conte guides Tottenham to fourth, nothing to separate Manchester City and Liverpool, and more from gameweek 30 of Premier League

The Premier League title race is on a knife-edge after Manchester City retained pole position with a pulsating 2-2 draw against their closest challengers Liverpool.

Antonio Conte’s Tottenham revolution gathered pace with a 4-0 rout of Aston Villa that boosted their top four bid, while Leeds should be safe after an impressive win at Watford.

Here are three things we learned from the Premier League this weekend:

Manchester City and Liverpool traded blows throughout an enthralling clash between the Premier League heavyweights, but neither could land the knockout punch that would have put them on course to clinch the title.

Leaders City sit one point clear of second-placed Liverpool after goals from Kevin De Bruyne and Gabriel Jesus were cancelled out by Diogo Jota and Sadio Mane.

It was the kind of high-quality contest that underlined why both sides can stake a claim to being the world’s best.

Liverpool could cement that argument if they can pip City to the title, but Reds boss Jurgen Klopp knows the reigning champions will be tough to catch.
