Manchester City is officially the new England Champion. This happened after West Bromwich, who was last in the Premier League`s provisional standings, defeated Sensational Manchester United with 1-0 at Old Trafford in a 34th round match. Jay Rodriguez scored the only shot in the 73rd minute. The `Citizens` have a 16-point lead in front of the `Red Devils`, both teams having five matches to the end. This is the third title for Manchester City in the last seven seasons and the first for the team under the leadership of Josep Guardiola.
Host manager Jose Mourinho made two changes compared to the Manchester derby a week ago. Eric Baiy and Jesse Lingard retreated to Victor Lindelof and Juan Mata.
In West Bromwich there were no changes to the Swansea match (1:1) in the previous round.
Surprisingly, guests created the first clean goal opportunity. This happened in the 14th minute when Ronson managed to get four Livermore defenders in the penalty area. The midfielder fired at the diagonal, but De Hea threw himself and slapped one hand.
In the 18th minute, the Red Devils had a well-founded penalty claim. Alexis found Lukaku very well, who went on to Herera. The latter fell, after Dawson`s leg was hung. Referee Paul Tearney, however, signaled the game to continue. Immediately afterwards Lukaku fired close, but Foster saved. The ball came to Sanchez, but his stroke was reflected by the guard of the `thrushes. `
In the 29th minute, Pogba shot a hand in centering Sanchez, for which he deservedly received a yellow card.
Three minutes before the break, Brunt was centered from a corner, and Dawson, who was left alone on the far beam, drew his head parallel to the goal, but Smilling cleared. Here the midfielder had to try a direct hit, instead of looking for a shot, which wasted a great opportunity. For the start of the second half in a game for United, Ligard appeared, replacing Herera. The winger immediately had a chance, but his 13-meter shot was blocked by Dawson, who threw himself with self-sacrifice.
In the 66th minute the Red Devils reached their cleanest position so far. Lucacu scored very well with Mati?`s centering center, but Foster responded perfectly and slaughtered, although the ball was directed to the right corner of his door. In the 73rd minute West Brom did what he waited for the blue part of Manchester. Brunt is at the corner and Mattich plays with his head under the pressure of Dawson, who was behind him, serving the ball for Rodriguez. The striker just put his head, carrying the victory of the `thrushes. `Manchester City is on the top with 87 points, while United has 71 - one more than Liverpool. Merseyside, however, is a match more. West Bromwich remains at the bottom with 24 points - nine out of the rescue zone.
