BREAKING: Manchester City crowned Premier League champions

Manchester City won their third Premier League title in four seasons on Tuesday after rival Manchester United fell to a 1-2 defeat at home to Leicester City on Tuesday.

Goals from Luke Thomas and Caglar Soyuncu on either side of a Mason Greenwood equaliser helped Brendan Rodgers’ side move third above Chelsea, which has a game in hand, in the standings. Leicester has now inched closer towards snatching a Champions League spot for next season.

Meanwhile, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men will play a third match in five days when they take on Liverpool on Thursday. United, which will be hoping to seal a second-place finish this year, also has a Europa League final to play against Villarreal.

Man City won its third league title in four seasons under manager Pep Guardiola and remains on course for a historic treble. The side stormed past Paris Saint-Germain 4-1 on aggregate last week to cruise into its maiden CL final, where it will take on Chelsea.
