MANCHESTER City, Chelsea, and Newcastle secured places in next season's Uefa Champions League as Liverpool lifted the English Premier League trophy following a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace on a dramatic final day of the season on Sunday.
-
A record-equalling 20th league title for Liverpool, and relegation for Ipswich, Leicester, and Southampton, had long since been decided, leaving the focus of attention on the battle for European qualification.
Liverpool and Arsenal had already confirmed their Champions League spots by finishing in the top two, while Tottenham will join them after winning the Uefa Europa League on Wednesday.
City ensured a disappointing season did not end in disaster by qualifying for Europe's top competition for the 15th consecutive year, thanks to a 2-0 victory over Fulham that secured third place. Ikay Gündoğan's overhead kick from close range put Pep Guardiola’s side in front, before Erling Haaland sealed the win from the penalty spot.
