Manchester City's Premier League title defence came to an end on Thursday as Liverpool were crowned champions after Chelsea boosted their chances of a top-four finish with a 2-1 win over Pep Guardi...
Manchester City's Brazilian midfielder Fernandinho uses his hand to stop a ahot from Chelsea's English striker Tammy Abraham to concdede a penalty during the English Premier League football match between Chelsea and Manchester City at Stamford Bridge in London on June 25, 2020.
Kevin De Bruyne’s brilliant free-kick brought the visitors level, but Liverpool’s 30-year wait to win a league title was ended when Fernandinho was sent-off for palming the ball clear off his own goal line and Willian converted the resulting penalty 12 minutes from time. However, Guardiola was given another reminder that his side’s defending must improve to compete with Europe’s best.
Pulisic kept his head to slot into the far corner and score his second goal of the restart after a long injury layoff before the coronavirus shutdown. City’s strength in depth has been emphasised by the temporary change in rules to allow five substitutions and nine replacements on the bench. An uncharacteristic error from Ederson then nearly threw City’s good work away as the Brazilian passed the ball into the path of Mason Mount, who wastefully fired wide.
