Abu Dhabi-owned Manchester City secured an unprecedented fourth consecutive English top flight title on Sunday, defeating West Ham United 3-1. This thrilling victory at the Etihad Stadium topped off the Premier League season, edging out rivals Arsenal on the final day, according to Reuters.
Phil Foden, named the league’s player of the season, scored two early goals setting a celebratory tone under the sunny skies. West Ham’s Mohammed Kudus responded with a stunning bicycle kick before halftime, briefly narrowing the gap. However, Manchester City’s Rodri clinched the victory with a decisive shot from outside the penalty area in the 59th minute, marking the team’s sixth title in seven years.
The stadium erupted with fans singing “Champions again!” and taunting “Are you watching Arsenal?” Arsenal, who needed Manchester City to lose points to claim the title, won their match against Everton 2-1, but still finished two points shy of the champions in one of the Premier League’s tightest races.
