Man City 3-2 Aston Villa: Pep Guardiola's side win Premier League after amazing fightback
Ilkay Gundogan scored twice as Manchester City - 2-0 down with 14 minutes left - came back to win
It looked as if Villa manager Steven Gerrard might help his former club Liverpool secure the title - until City turned the game on its head in at atmosphere bordering on hysteria. City did need those three points as Liverpool beat Wolverhampton Wanderers - with City boss Guardiola overcome with emotion and breaking down in tears at the final whistle.When Coutinho slid in Villa's second goal, it looked as if the most unpalatable of storylines was being written for Manchester City.
And then, in one of the most dramatic twists of any Premier League title race, City knocked down the door that had been firmly slammed in their face by a supremely well-organised Villa.City looked crestfallen but showed their class and character once Gundogan gave them hope with that header, scenting their chance, even though some of their fans still feared this might only be a consolation.
