Recap

Defoe, Lukaku and Aguero all took their personal tallies to 11 goals for the season on Monday, and all three picked up solid results with their clubs.

The latter scored the second goal in a 2-1 win over Burnley after starting on the bench. Fernandinho was sent off in the first half, and a lack of chances prompted manager Pep Guardiola to introduce both Aguero and David Silva for the second period.

Gael Clichy and the Argentinian opened up a two-goal lead minutes after the break, and Ben Mee pulled one back to set up a nervy finale. Per Goal's Sam Lee, things got tense at the Etihad Stadium:

The Citizens held on, however, and with Liverpool drawing against Sunderland, City now trail the Reds by just two points.

It was Defoe who made the difference for the Black Cats, scoring both goals in their 2-2 draw to continue his fine season. Both of his goals came from the penalty spot, and as expected, Liverpool fans were not happy about it.

James Pearce of the Liverpool Echo thought it was the Reds' own fault, however:

Daniel Sturridge opened the scoring, and Mane got on the scoresheet as well. The Senegal international was responsible for the Black Cats' second penalty, however.

Sunderland striker Victor Anichebe was happy with the result:

Lukaku scored the final goal in Everton's win over Southampton. Enner Valencia and Leighton Baines also got on the scoresheet, with all three goals falling relatively late in the match.

United played far from their best in the win over West Ham, with Ibrahimovic and Juan Mata scoring the goals. Referee Mike Dean stole the spotlight, sending off Sofiane Feghouli in controversial fashion after just 15 minutes.

Middlesbrough held Leicester City to a scoreless draw, and West Bromwich Albion beat Hull City 3-1.
