MANCHESTER
\nManchester City and Aston Villa missed the chance to make significant inroads into Arsenal\u2019s Premier League lead on Wednesday as managerless Manchester United were held at lowly Burnley.
\nElsewhere on a frantic night of action, 10-man Chelsea went down 2-1 at Fulham in front of new boss Liam Rosenior and Antoine Semenyo scored a fairytale winner for Bournemouth against Tottenham.
\nErling Haaland scored his 150th City goal from the penalty spot to put Pep Guardiola\u2019s team ahead at the Etihad but Kaoru Mitoma made it 1-1 in the second half.
\nNorway forward Haaland has reached 150 goals in all competitions in his 173rd appearance — 28 games faster than any other Premier League player.
\nBut he and his teammates squandered a succession of chances as they drew a third game in a row.
\nCity are now on 43 points, five behind Arsenal, who can go eight clear with a home win against Liverpool on Thursday.
\nVilla are level on points with City following a costly goalless draw at Crystal Palace.
\nCity boss Guardiola bemoaned his team\u2019s profligacy in front of goal.
\n\u201cI love a lot the way we played, we did many good things, but we don\u2019t score goals,\u201d he said. \u201cThere are too many clear chances.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
