The wait goes on for Manchester City. Time is up for West Bromwich Albion.
Manchester United underlined its determination to make City, its fierce local rival, fight to clinch the Premier League trophy by prolonging the title race for at least a couple more days.
United beat Aston Villa 3-1 on Sunday to leave City still needing three points to reclaim the biggest prize in English football. It is the 10th time United has come from behind to win in the league this season.

WOLVERHAMPTON, England Morgan Gibbs-White completed Wolverhampton s late rally with a 90th-minute goal in a 2-1 win over Brighton, which had a player sent off in the second half and after the final whistle of the Premier League game on Sunday.
Moments after blazing a golden chance over the crossbar, Gibbs-White curled a shot into the top corner for his first goal of the season as Brighton was made to pay for the 53rd-minute sending-off of Lewis Dunk.

Yves Bissouma has asked to leave Brighton this summer, with Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal all keen on the Malian midfielder.
Bissouma has taken his time to hit prime form since arriving on the south coast from Lille in 2018, but this season has been a breakthrough for the 24-year-old. He has been one of the stars of Graham Potter s hit-and-miss Seagulls, and there is a growing sense at the Amex that his days there are numbered.
He has made 32 appearances for Brighton this season, with only centre-backs Ben White and Lewis Dunk racking up more minutes on the pitch. They expect to double the £15m they spent on him three years ago if they sell now, according to The Times.
