Gary Lineker delivers verdict on Man City, Liverpool and title race after derby

Gary Lineker has hit the nail on the head with his summary on the Premier League title race following Manchester City's derby win over United.

Manchester City's victory saw them leapfrog title rivals Liverpool at the top of the table by a single point. They also have superior goal difference.

There are just three games left of the season to play, and neither Manchester City nor Liverpool show any signs of letting up.

The current points tallies already accumulated by the two teams would have been enough for them to have won the title on another year, showing how competitive this campaign is.
