Man City wins historical fourth title in a row

This match started with a lot of nerves in the Etihad Stadium. Manchester City started this match with a 2 points advantage over Arsenal. The Gunners started at the same time at home against Everton. A win for Manchester City was going to be enough to win their fourth consecutive Premier League title. Something that hasn’t been done before, which put extra pressure on Pep Guardiola and his team.

Flying start for Man City

Title winning matches are usually a bit nervy and boring. The longer it takes to get the lead, the nervier it gets. Phil Foden, who was crowned Premier League player of the Year, took his team by the hand from the start. With 90 seconds he scored an absolute screamer to take the lead. After a strong run by Doku, he assisted Phil Foden to double the lead. Just before half-time it was Mohamed Kudus who scored one back for West Ham with an amazing overhead kick. This goal decreased Man City’s lead to 1 goal at half-time. At the Emirates the score was 1-1 at half-time so Man City had still nothing to worry about.

Rodri is once again important

After about 15 minutes in the second half, Rodri doubled City’s lead to a 2 goal gap. The Spaniard once again scored in an important match. He shows how important he is for Manchester City. This goal was the nail in West Ham’s coffin. Manchester City kept dominating possession and kept the Hammers quiet this way. In the 87th minute, it looked like Soucek scored one back, but in the replay it showed he scored with his arm.

Four in a row, double next?
