Jose Mourinho has conceded that the Premier League title race is “probably” over following his side’s 2-1 defeat at home to leaders Manchester City yesterday.

Asked whether the title race is now over, Mourinho told BBC Sport: “Probably, yes. Manchester City are a very good team and they are protected by the luck, and the gods of football are behind them.”
