Manchester City won the Premier League title on Sunday, securing the crown with an incredible three-goal fightback against Aston Villa that snatched the title right out of Liverpool’s hands.
In an incredible day of drama across England, Villa went up 2-0 against City in the second half, leaving Liverpool needing just one more goal against Wolves to seal the title.
But by the time Liverpool got that goal through Mohamed Salah, Man City had completed a sensational five-minute period that saw it score three times.
İlkay Gündoğan found the net with an 81st-minute tap-in from Kevin De Bruyne’s low cross, completing a dramatic turnaround and sending the Etihad Stadium into raptures.
City held on for a 3-2 win, making Liverpool hard-luck runner-up after its 3-1 win over Wolves.
Pep Guardiola’s men have now won four of the last five Premier League titles.
BEDLAM AT THE ETIHAD!
İlkay Gündoğan's second goal of the match wins Manchester City the title.

Tottenham beats Arsenal to Champions League spot
Arsenal went into the final day having lost two straight matches, giving Tottenham control over its own Champions League fate heading into the final day.
Spurs only needed to draw at rock-bottom Norwich to secure a top-four place but they went one better by easily defeating the Canaries 5-0.
Arsenal needed to defeat Everton and get help from Norwich, but only managed to get the former. The Gunners’ 4-1 win over the Toffees was a case of too little, too late, and they’ll be in the Europa League next season after finishing in fifth place.
