Manchester City held their nerve to win one of the most thrilling title races in Premier League history.
Pep Guardiola’s men wrapped up the league by a single point with a 4-1 victory at Brighton to crush Liverpool’s hopes of a first top-flight triumph since 1990.

But the scoreline doesn’t tell the entire story – and at one point the title was heading to Merseyside.
Fresh from witnessing the miraculous 4-0 victory over Barcelona, Anfield believed anything was possible, and Liverpool struck first when Sadio Mane turned in Trent Alexander-Arnold’s cross in the 17th minute.

Mane put Liverpool in front
Reds supporters dared to dream when news quickly filtered through of a shock goal at Brighton – Glenn Murray put the Seagulls in front from a corner.
