Manchester City have secured their fifth Premier League title in six seasons!
Nottingham Forest’s unexpected win against second-placed Arsenal sealed the deal for City. The title race had been heating up since March, but it came to an abrupt end with Forest’s 1-0 victory over second-place Arsenal.
City, who have been on an incredible winning streak, now has 85 points with three games left. They will face Chelsea in their next match and will be presented with the well-deserved trophy. Arsenal, who once held an eight-point lead over City in March, now have 81 points with just one game remaining.
City’s captain, Ilkay Gundogan, expressed his joy and said, “To have helped the club win a third straight Premier League title is something very special. It has been a season I will never forget.”
Nottingham Forest’s triumph not only ended Arsenal’s slim hopes but also secured their own survival. With 37 points, Forest will enjoy back-to-back top-flight seasons for the first time in 27 years. Their victory was thanks to a goal by Taiwo Awoniyi in the first half.
Arsenal’s manager, Mikel Arteta, congratulated Manchester City but admitted his team’s disappointment. He said, “Now we must heal. It is very painful.”
Forest’s manager, Steve Cooper, expressed immense pride in the club and their achievement. He mentioned that this victory would allow them to build on their success. Moreover, it’s worth noting that all three promoted clubs have managed to survive in the Premier League this season, making it a rare occurrence.
