Manchester City earned a point at West Ham after coming back from two goals down for the first time under Pep Guardiola.

With a win over Aston Villa on the final day, they will be proclaimed champions.

At halftime, City’s grip on the Premier League crown appeared to be shaky, as the Hammers lead thanks to Jarrod Bowen’s well-taken double.

However, four minutes after the restart, Jack Grealish scored for the visitors, and Vladmir Coufal headed Riyad Mahrez’s free-kick into his own net as City avoided loss for the first time in the Premier League since 2012.

Five minutes from time, they had a chance to win it, but Lukasz Fabianski saved Riyad Mahrez’s penalty after Craig Dawson fouled Gabriel Jesus.

Guardiola was visibly upset by this. However, given their predicament at the break, with Liverpool potentially having a chance to catch them when they play on Tuesday, the visitors’ ultimate result was positive.

For the first time in club history, West Ham has qualified for European football by virtue of their league position in consecutive seasons.
