Man City wins 2021/22 EPL after remarkable U-turn at Etihad Stadium

Manchester City have won the 2021/22 Premier League in incredible situations after coming from two goals down to beat Aston Villa 3-2 at the Etihad Stadium.

Three goals in five minutes late in the game turned the match and the title race on its head as substitute Ilkay Gundogan scored two, either side of Rodri's strike. Liverpool's late win over Wolves meant that only victory would have been enough for City.

It was an incredible way to do it, almost as remarkable in its own way as events a decade ago when Sergio Aguero won the title in stoppage time. City had looked a beaten side when Philippe Coutinho added to Matty Cash's opener midway through the second half.

Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard was set to add to his Anfield legend. Instead, amid a rambunctious atmosphere at the Etihad, it was Pep Guardiola and his players celebrating ecstatically upon the final whistle. Twists and turns had been expected. But surely not this. Congratulations to City!
