🗓️ Game played on May 25, 2025
The Premier League last round was anything but boring — even though the title was decided weeks ago, the final day brought a wild mix of shocks, glory, and brutal heartbreak. While the top spot was untouchable, the race for European football kept fans glued to the action until the final whistle.
Liverpool had already secured the crown and entered the final round without pressure. With 84 points, they finished the season as champions — a dominant campaign from start to finish.
It wasn’t a headline-making season for Manchester City, but they handled business on the last day. A clean 0:2 away win locked in 3rd place with 71 points — good enough for Champions League, though below expectations for a team of their stature.
With European football on the line, Newcastle were expected to grab all three points at home against Everton. They dominated possession (66%) and had 17 shots, but the scoreboard told a different story:
Everton pulled off a shocking 0:1 win, shutting down every Newcastle attack and throwing a wrench into the home side’s European hopes. Suddenly, Newcastle’s fate depended on what happened at Old Trafford.
Aston Villa needed points to stay ahead in the European race. But the away trip to Manchester turned sour fast — they were outplayed and lost 2:0, handing over the Champions League spot to Newcastle.
Every chance counts… and they missed theirs.
The most emotional match of the day? Easily Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea.
Forest had everything on the line — a win would launch them into 4th place and Champions League glory. But it wasn’t meant to be. Despite 10 attempts and real momentum, Chelsea took it 0:1, flipping the script entirely.
No surprises here — the bottom three had already been confirmed earlier:
Tottenham’s Premier League campaign was a disaster — they finished 17th, barely avoiding relegation. But thanks to winning the Europa League, they booked a spot in the Champions League anyway. No league success, but massive European redemption.
Crystal Palace had an average league season, ending in 12th, but their FA Cup triumph changes everything. That victory earned them a place in the Europa League, proving again that trophies matter.
