Manchester City win Premier League title after pulsating comeback victory at Etihad

Manchester City have retained their Premier League title, following a dramatic 3-2 win over Aston Villa on Sunday.

The champions were stunned by Steven Gerrard’s men who went two goals up at The Etihad.

Matty Cash and Phillippe Coutinho scored either side for Villa.

However, City fought back through goals from Ilkay Gundgoan (twice) and Rodrigo to win the title ahead of Liverpool, who beat Wolves 3-1 at Anfield.

City topped the log with 93 points while Liverpool finished in second place with a point behind.

On the flip side, Arsenal missed out on the last Champions League spot, despite a 5-1 win over Everton at the Emirates.

Tottenham finished 4th on the log after demolishing already-relegated Norwich 5 nil away from home.

The Gunners were banking on Norwich to upset Tottenham, but Antonio Conte’s men who needed just a draw, annihilated their opponent.

Manchester City have now won six Premier League titles with Pep Guardiola winning 4 of them in five seasons.
