In a commanding display at the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City secured their fourth Premier League title in a row by defeating West Ham United 3-1 on the final day of the season. The match was marked by an early onslaught from the hosts, as Phil Foden netted twice within the opening 18 minutes, showcasing his prowess with a long-range strike followed by a clinical finish from close range.
Despite a moment of brilliance from Kudus just before halftime, providing West Ham with a glimmer of hope, Manchester City remained in control. Rodri extended their lead with a well-taken goal just before the hour mark, effectively sealing the victory and their place in history.
The Hammers struggled to mount a significant offensive threat throughout the match, finishing with an expected goals tally of only 0.36 compared to Manchester City's dominant 2.01.
For Pep Guardiola's side, this victory not only secures their eighth Premier League title in the club's history but also cements their status as the first team to achieve four consecutive league triumphs—an unparalleled achievement in English football.
Meanwhile, despite the defeat, David Moyes' West Ham can take pride in their ninth-place finish, capping off a respectable campaign in the top flight.
