MAN UNITED 0, WEST BROM 1
How ironic that after winning at leaders Manchester City that Manchester United should lose at home to bottom-club West Brom, a result that confirmed City as champions.
Just as the second-half display against City was phenomenal, their performance against the Baggies was abject as they were beaten by a Jay Rodriguez goal.
TOTTENHAM 1, MAN CITY 3
It was the hallmark of champions – as Manchester City are destined to be – how they overcame adversity to defeat top-four team Tottenham so comprehensively at Wembley.
After losing three games in a row – had it become four it would have been the club’s worst record for 12 years – this was a massive test for City.
MAN CITY 2, MAN UTD 3
Manchester City’s coronation as Premier League champions has been put on ice following their derby defeat at home to neighbours United.
In an extraordinary game, United produced a remarkable fightback to delay the celebrations as City could have won the title and made history by securing it with six games to go, something no other team had done.
EVERTON 1, MANCHESTER CITY 3
In just seven days time, Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City side could smash all manner of records while lifting the Premier League title if they beat their last remaining obstacle – rivals Manchester United – after they smashed Everton to complete a rare feat of winning against every top flight side in the same season.
MAN UNITED 2, SWANSEA CITY 0
It was all rather routine as Manchester United beat Swansea City at Old Trafford to reclaim second spot in the Premier League that they lost hours earlier.
Goals from Romelu Lukaku – his 100th in the Premier League – and Alexis Sanchez sealed the points in the opening 20 minutes.
