Video: Manchester City 3 – 2 Aston Villa [Premier League] Highlights 2021/2022
Manchester City pulled off a stunning fightback to beat Aston Villa 3-2 and snatch the Premier League title as Pep Guardiola’s side did it the hard way.
You could not script this drama and be taken seriously. Chasing a fourth title in five seasons, City knew victory would secure that, yet Steven Gerrard had Villa well organised and the hosts struggled to find their usual fluency.
Matty Cash’s 37th-minute opener stunned the hosts, and former Liverpool forward Philippe Coutinho left City devastated when he lashed Villa two goals clear in the 69th minute.
But Ilkay Gundogan’s header and Rodri’s low strike dramatically hauled the hosts level with two goals in three minutes, before super-sub Gundogan slammed home City’s third nine minutes from time, scotching Liverpool’s title hopes.
