Gyokeres wins Premier League! Ex-Sporting thanks Man City draw | OneFootball

Arsenal secured the league title this Tuesday after benefiting from Manchester City’s surprise 1-1 draw away to Bournemouth in the 37th and penultimate round of the Premier League. Arsenal, with Viktor Gyokeres, were crowned winners of the competition for the first time since 2004 and for the 14th time in their history.

Pep Guardiola’s side, with Matheus Nunes in the starting line-up, needed to win to take the title race to the final round, but the best they could manage was a draw, with a goal only coming in the 90+5th minute, scored by Erling Haaland, against a Bournemouth side that had opened the scoring in the 39th minute through Eli Junior Kroupi and made history by securing qualification for European competitions for the first time in their 127-year existence.

Arsenal, who had not won the English title for 22 years and who succeed Liverpool on the competition’s roll of honour, have 82 points, four more than Manchester City, who are in second place. Manchester United, with Bruno Fernandes, are in 3rd place.

The London side, who will face French club Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final on 30 May, secured the 14th English league title in their history, a record surpassed only by Liverpool and Manchester United, both with 20 trophies.

Viktor Gyokeres - who was praised - wins his third consecutive domestic league title, after back-to-back championships with Sporting in 2024 and 2025. The Swedish striker - valued at €65 million - has played 51 matches and has scored 21 goals and provided four assists this season.
