Arsenal fans accused Tottenham and Man City of arranging and asked the Premier League to investigate
Victory Propels Man City Above Arsenal with One Ma
Victory Propels Man City Above Arsenal with One Match Remaining. This win officially propels Manchester City above Arsenal with only one round left in the Premier League season. Pep Guardiola's team now has 88 points, 2 points ahead of the "Gunners". This means that Manchester City only needs to win in the final round to secure the Premier League title.
Meanwhile, Tottenham has lost their chance to qualify for next season's Champions League, trailing fourth-placed Aston Villa by 5 points. However, a strange scene unfolded at Tottenham's stadium last night. "Spurs" fans celebrated their team's defeat.
The reason is quite simple: Arsenal and Tottenham have been fierce rivals in North London since their inception. Therefore, "Spurs" fans would rather see Manchester City win the Premier League than Arsenal. Additionally, even if Tottenham had won this match, their chances of qualifying for the Champions League were still very slim.
Naturally, most Arsenal fans were not pleased with this sight. Some were furious, accusing Tottenham of deliberately losing to Manchester City to hinder Arsenal's title bid, and called for a Premier League investigation to dock points from both teams. The Betmentor news collected some notable reactions from social media.

One Arsenal fan expressed suspicion: "How on earth did Son Heung-Min miss that chance? He's a top-class striker. I believe the result of this match was fixed".
Another Arsenal supporter analyzed: "There was definitely match-fixing in this game. The penalty was too obvious. Doku couldn't go anywhere and the defender still fouled him. And Son Heung-Min's shot, he aimed straight at the goalkeeper with an open goal in front of him".
A frustrated Arsenal fan demanded action: "I think this fix was too blatant. Tottenham and Man City need to be docked points for this".
Another Arsenal fan accused: "Did you hear that? Tottenham fans admitted it. They sang, 'Hey Arsenal lovers, are you watching? This match is fixed for Man City to win'".
