On May 15, Beijing time, because of the final ownership of the Premier League championship this season, a Premier League make-up match attracted great attention from fans, that is, Manchester City vs. Tottenham. As a result, Manchester City won thanks to two goals from Haaland.

After this game, Manchester City are two points ahead of Arsenal and occupy the top spot in the Premier League, and the final round will be decided between these two teams.

In the previous three seasons, Manchester City had won three consecutive Premier League titles. At present, an unprecedented four consecutive Premier League titles are beckoning to the "Blue Moon": in more than 100 years since the creation of the English top flight, no team has been able to achieve four consecutive titles in the top flight!

Even Manchester United in the Ferguson era, Arsenal under Arsene Wenger failed to achieve this miracle.

No wonder Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola, who is accustomed to seeing big scenes, will also "lose his temper" in this game - in the 86th minute, Manchester City led 1:0, at this time Manchester City defender Akanji made a mistake, after the ball was tackled, Tottenham's Son Xingmin got a single chance, at this time Guardiola lay directly on the ground, not daring to look at the situation on the field at all, until Son Xingmin's shot was saved by the Manchester City goalkeeper, Guardiola "climbed". If Son Heung-min scores this one-on-one, Manchester City is likely to get a draw in this game.

Now, the pressure is on Arsenal's side.

Yan Qiang, a famous Premier League commentator, once said that this was the strongest Arsenal he had ever seen, "It's a pity that they met the strongest Manchester City in history." "Yes, Arsenal, who are accustomed to "dropping the chain", have played really well this season and maintained the suspense of the title race until the last game, but the fate is now out of their control, because in the last game, Arsenal needs to win at the same time, Manchester City at least can't win, if Manchester City draws with their opponents, the two sides will compete for goal difference, if this is the case, Arsenal will win the title.

Of course, Arsenal's opponent in the final round is not strong, Everton is still in 15th place with 40 points after being deducted 8 points for financial irregularities this season, and has already been successfully relegated early, and the whole team is already preparing for a holiday.

The question is, will Manchester City miss out in the final round? Manchester City's opponent is West Ham United in 9th place, which is also a team that has no desire and cannot stop Manchester City from moving forward in terms of strength and mentality.

If he can win the Premier League this season, Pep Guardiola will set an unprecedented record. Of course, some people question that Manchester City's championship is "bought", that is, to buy good players to win the championship by piling up money, and Guardiola scoffs at such doubts, "If you can win the championship by buying players, I think Manchester United and Chelsea should have won a lot of titles in recent years." ”

In terms of the net expenditure of the team in the past ten years, Manchester United and Chelsea are the two teams that have bought the most players, but the team's results are difficult to meet the requirements of owners and fans, so Guardiola still has a set, isn't it?
