Decisive moment in the great race

THERE IS invariably a decisive moment in every great race.

In the long haul of the Premiership it almost certainly comes tonight when Manchester United travel to Highbury for a domestic encounter which is the football equivalent of a world heavyweight title fight.

If Manchester United win and go six points clear at the top of the Premiership with just four matches remaining for them and five for Arsenal, then an eighth Premiership title is almost certainly bound for Old Trafford.
