Also, ahead of the game, manager Pep Guardiola made nine changes from the starting lineup that humiliated Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-finals since they have nothing to lose in the EPL game.

Julian Alvarez who stood in for the rested Erling Haaland, scored with finesse in the 12th minute to give City the lead as their ecstatic supporters anticipated the trophy presentations and celebrations.

As the game went on, Chelsea had some of the better opportunities as Raheem Sterling’s attempt was well saved by City’s backup goalkeeper Stefan Ortega and Conor Gallagher hit the post with a header.

City continued with the unwavering run that has given them the title and the chance to win the Triple, sealing a 1-0 victory in front of their jubilant home fans with the FA Cup final at Wembley and the Champions League final in Istanbul yet to come.
