Man United in pole position for Champions League spot, but can't take their eyes off Liverpool

Diogo Jota not only kept Liverpool's season alive with a 94th-minute winner in Sunday's dramatic 4-3 victory in the Premier League against Tottenham Hotspur, his goal also put more pressure on fourth-placed Manchester United as they attempt to secure a return to the Champions League.

Even though they are seven points clear with a game in hand, United can't take their eyes off Liverpool; if they do, they could surrender the top-four spot they've held for more than half the season.

In that sense, Jota's goal against Tottenham could prove to be one of the most significant of the 2022-23 campaign.
