  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    The Cityzens took a two-goal lead within the first 20 minutes of their final day Premier League clash against West Ham on Sunday courtesy of a Phil Foden brace. The Hammers pulled one back through Mohammed Kudus' brilliant back-volley in the 42nd minute, to set up a nervy second period.

    However, a fake rumour circulated at the Emirates Stadium, where Arsenal faced Everton, that David Moyes' side had equalised, leaving the home fans in a frenzy as they celebrated wildly. The Gunners needed Pep Guardiola's men to drop points and win themselves at home to lift the Premier League title.
