Arsenal rout at Ipswich keeps Liverpool waiting as it closes in on EPL crown


The Premier League title is so close, Liverpool can almost touch it.
Trent Alexander-Arnold's second-half strike in Liverpool's 1-0 victory over Leicester on Sunday put the Merseyside club a single win away from a record-equaling 20th English league crown.
It would not even require that if second-placed Arsenal loses to Crystal Palace on Wednesday. But, regardless of any other result, Liverpool knows that victory against Tottenham at Anfield this coming Sunday will be enough to seal the title.
"One win away now, it's very close," said Alexander-Arnold, who tore his jersey off in celebration after his decisive goal.
Arsenal had ensured Liverpool would have to wait a while longer for its crowning moment, after routing Ipswich 4-0 earlier in the day. And, for long periods at the King Power Stadium, Leicester threatened to frustrate the league leader — even having a Conor Coady goal disallowed before Alexander-Arnold's winner.
Defeat confirmed 2016 league champion Leicester's relegation.
Wolves sealed top-flight safety by beating Manchester United 1-0 after Pablo Sarabia's brilliant second-half freekick.
Chelsea moved up to fifth after rallying to beat Fulham 2-1 with two late goals.
