Man City clinches 6th Premier League title in 11 seasons

Manchester City clinched a sixth Premier League title in 11 seasons on Sunday by scoring three times in five minutes to come from behind to beat Aston Villa 3-2 in the finale and hold off Liverpool’s challenge.

After starting the day in first place, City was at risk of a historic choke when it conceded twice to trail 2-0 at home to Villa. It took

Ilkay Gundogan’s header to begin the comeback in the 76th and Rodri equalized two minutes later by placing the ball through a gap into the bottom corner.

The Etihad Stadium erupted in celebration in the 81st when Gundogan tapped in Kevin De Bruyne’s cross.

Serie A title in 11 years with a 3-0 win at Sassuolo. Veteran forward Olivier Giroud scored twice to set his side on the way to the win. Rafael Leao set up all three first-half goals . ... After seeing his low penalty shot go just wide of the left post, Granada striker

Jorge Molina raised his hands to cover his face in despair. He knew it was a big miss. And it proved to be very costly. Molina missed from the spot in the 72nd minute and Granada was relegated from the Spanish league after a 0-0 draw at home against Espanyol, allowing Cadiz to take advantage and stay in the first division. A win would have been enough for Granada regardless of other results, but the setback opened the door for Cadiz after it defeated Alaves 1-0 with a goal from Honduran Anthony “Choco” Lozano.
