LONDON : Manchester City defender Ruben Dias said a 3-1 victory at Arsenal in Wednesday's Premier League title race showdown meant everything to the defending champions.
But they took control in the second half with Jack Grealish and Erling Haaland both on target to send City top of the league for the first time since August on goal difference. "This means everything to us, when you come to these moments against your rival, it just means everything. For our team that's the way to live it. One game at a time, but leave it all there in that one game and make sure you have nothing left."
But he produced a marauding second-half display and sealed the win with his 26th league goal of the season in the 82nd minute, 10 minutes after Grealish had fired City ahead.
