Awoniyi's goal crown Man City champions

Manchester City have won their fifth Premier League title in six seasons after Arsenal lost 1-0 to Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Pep Guardiola's men spent much of the campaign chasing the Gunners but dealt a telling blow when beating the Gunners 4-1 at the Etihad last month.

The blue side of Manchester had been widely anticipated to secure the title on Sunday as they prepared to face Chelsea at their home fortress, the Etihad Stadium.

However, Saturday's faceoff between Nottingham Forest and Arsenal expedited their celebrations, enabling the City squad to revel in their victory a full day earlier than anticipated.

After 35 rounds of games, City towers atop the table with an impressive 85 points. Arsenal, in contrast, lags behind with 81 points from 37 matches, leaving them with just one remaining opportunity to earn points.

This disparity seals City's triumph; no matter what unfolds in the remaining matches, the Gunners can no longer pose a threat to their supremacy.

For the architect of Manchester City's success, Pep Guardiola, this victory marks one achievement in a highly ambitious season.

His eyes are set on a coveted treble, with City poised to compete in the FA Cup final against local rivals Manchester United, and the Champions League final against Inter Milan.

Awoniyi's Magic

In a weekend of Premier League action, Taiwo Awoniyi, Nottingham Forest's forward, again found the back of the net on Saturday, securing a 1-0 victory over Arsenal.

This result not only played a crucial part in determining the league champions but also offered a significant boost for Nottingham Forest, cementing their place in the Premier League for the forthcoming season.

Awoniyi, in an exceptional run of form, has now scored five times in his last three appearances, bagging braces against Southampton and Chelsea.

The Nigerian striker, with nine goals this season, holds the accolade of being Nottingham Forest's top scorer, further enhancing his rapidly growing reputation.
