BY JUDE MADUEKE—Manchester City continued their late push for the Premier League title with a strong win at Turf Moor, moving to the top of the table while confirming relegation for Burnley.

The champions, unbeaten in 11 matches, overturned a nine-point gap on Arsenal to lead on goal difference with five games left.

Erling Haaland scored early after linking up with Jeremy Doku, while City dominated chances through Rayan Cherki and Nico O’Reilly, but were repeatedly denied by Burnley goalkeeper Martin Dubravka.
