MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Manchester City has cut Arsenal’s lead at the top of the Premier League to five points with a come-from-behind 4-2 win against Tottenham. Just when the reigning champion’s title defense looked in danger of suffering a latest blow second-half goals from Julian Alvarez, Erling Haaland and two from Riyadh Mahrez settled a thrilling clash at the Etihad Stadium. After the derby loss to Manchester United last weekend City risked losing further ground on Arsenal as Tottenham raced into a first-half lead through goals from Dejan Kulusevski and Emerson Royal.
