Manchester City claim 4th straight league title after 3-1 win against West Ham | Football News
Manchester City wrote its name into the annals of hory when they became the only side to win the Premier League trophy for the 4th time in a row when they defeated a hapless West Ham 3-1 at the Etihad on Sunday.
The league went down to the wire with both City and their close contenders Arsenal coming into the last day with 87 and 86 points respectively. In order for Arsenal to win the league they had to defeat Everton and hope that City slip up against West Ham.
Ultimately, it was City who ran away with the win with 2 goals from Phil Foden and another from Rodri while West Ham got one back courtesy of Mohammed Kudus. Arsenal also won their match 1-2 with goals from Takehiro Tomiyasu and Kai Havertz. Idrissa Gueye pulled one back for the visitors.
Liverpool deliver victory in an emotional farewell for Klopp
Liverpool delivered much-loved manager Juergen Klopp a victory in his final game with the team on Sunday, a 2-0 win over 10-man Wolverhampton Wanderers at Anfield in an emotional Premier League season finale.
Alexis Mac Aller and Jarell Quansah scored on a day that did not impact the Reds’ third-placed finish in the table, but one that Liverpool fans had been dreading since the 56-year-old German manager announced in late-January that he would leave the club at season’s end after almost nine years at the helm. Klopp’s men, who were on course to give their beloved manager a fairytale ending before a string of bad results last month derailed their title challenge, finished the season on 82 points, nine behind winners Manchester City.
Man United sign off disappointing league season with 2-0 win over Brighton
Goals from Diogo Dalot and Rasmus Hojlund gave Manchester United a scarcely-deserved 2-0 win at Brighton & Hove Albion as they ended an underwhelming Premier League campaign on Sunday ahead of next week’s FA Cup final against Manchester City. The victory sees United end the season in eighth place — their lowest position in the Premier League era — on 60 points and behind Newcastle United on goal difference, while Brighton ended 11th on 48 points.
What looked like a final-day game between two mid-table teams with nothing to play for took on greater significance on Saturday with the abrupt announcement that Brighton coach Roberto De Zerbi would part ways with the club after the game.
