Manchester City secured a historic fourth consecutive English league title by defeating West Ham 3-1 at the Etihad Stadium.
Phil Foden led the charge with two goals in the first half, demonstrating why he’s been awarded the Football Writers’ Association and Premier League Player of the Year. Despite a goal from Mohammed Kudus for West Ham, Rodri sealed the win for City with a powerful shot. This victory marks City’s sixth Premier League title in seven years and sets them apart as the first team to win four straight titles in the league’s 136-year history.
City’s dominance was evident as they completed the season with a remarkable run of 19 wins and four draws since their last defeat. They now look forward to potentially completing a domestic double if they can triumph over Manchester United in the upcoming FA Cup final. Amidst this success, there’s still no update on the outcome of the 115 Premier League charges against City for alleged financial irregularities.
Meanwhile, Guardiola praised Foden’s development and highlighted his potential to chase Ryan Giggs’ record of 13 titles. The match also underscored City’s unbeaten home record and their total control over the game, setting a high bar for future seasons under Guardiola’s leadership.
