London: Manchester City regained the Premier League title on Tuesday after Manchester United crashed to a 2-1 defeat against Leicester.
Man City won its third league title in four seasons.
Man City has 80 points from 35 matches in the 2020-21 Premier League season so far, while Man United, which also has three matches to go, can only reach a maximum of 79.
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.
