Original title: Premier League fourth situation: Manchester United basically missed the Champions League, the Gunners lead Tottenham by 2 points
In the early morning of May 2, Beijing time, in the 35th round of the Premier League, Arsenal defeated West Ham United 2-1 away. In this way, Arsenal leads Manchester United by as many as 8 points, and the season is over with 3 rounds left, basically declaring that the Red Devils have missed the top four, and Ronaldo will also miss the Champions League.
Before this game, Tottenham had 61 points in 34 games, Arsenal had 60 points in 33 games, and Manchester United had 55 points in 35 games. The Red Devils were already on the line. At the critical moment, Arsenal did not lose the chain. They scored 3 points 2-1 in a game and returned to the Champions League.
This game also changed the competition for the fourth pattern. West Ham United have completely lost hope of reaching the top four. Arsenal with 63 points, squeezed into the Champions League, ranked fourth, squeezed out Tottenham. Tottenham ranked fifth with 61 points. Manchester United are sixth with 55 points.
Manchester United are as much as 8 points away from the top four with 1 more game. They still have 3 games left to play, and they will get 9 points following full play. Arsenal and Tottenham both have 4 games to play and 12 points to take. Unless the two teams pull their hips collectively and do not score points in the last 4 rounds, Manchester United can achieve a counterattack with a complete victory. Clearly, United’s top-four finish remains only a theoretical possibility.
Manchester United’s opponents in the remaining 3 rounds are Brentford, Brighton, Crystal Palace; the Gunners’ opponents in the remaining 4 rounds are Leeds United, Tottenham, Newcastle, Everton; Tottenham’s opponents in the remaining 4 rounds are Liverpool, Arsenal , Burnley, Norwich.
