LONDON, AFP: Manchester City's Premier League title celebrations were put on hold again as Manchester United fought back to win 3-1 at Aston Villa on Sunday.

Pep Guardiola's side missed a chance to seal the title when they were beaten 2-1 by Chelsea on Saturday.

City could have started the party if second-placed United lost at Villa Park, but their arch-rivals kept the leaders' champagne on ice as they came from behind thanks to goals from Bruno Fernandes, Mason Greenwood and Edinson Cavani.
