City win thrilling EPL title race, break Liverpool hearts

Manchester City retained the Premier League title after surviving a scare on the final day to see off Brighton 4- 1 at the Amex and beat Liverpool to top spot.

For 88 seconds on the south coast, Liverpool were heading for the title as they led Wolves and City fell behind to Glenn Murray ’s header , but Pep Guardiola ’s men found their stride to finish on 98 points – one ahead of the Reds .

Murray gave Brighton a shock lead on 26 minutes , his finish from a corner sending Liverpool fans into delirium , but City quickly responded .

Sergio Aguero struck the ball through Mat Ryan ’ s legs after a good pass from David Silva two minutes later, and then Aymeric Laporte headed home unmarked from a corner on 38 minutes to make it 2 -1 .

Riyad Mahrez , making a rare start , finished superbly just after the hour, and Ilkay Gundogan ’s majestic free kick put City in total control and turned the closing stages into a party for the visiting fans .

Liverpool beat Wolves 2 - 0 at Anfield but, despite finishing their season with 97 points, were denied a first Premier League title since 1990 by Manchester City’ s win.
