Manchester City equalized on the visit against West Ham for the penultimate day of the Premier League, after a penalty missed by the Algerian Riyad Mahrez four minutes from the end that prevented the comeback for the “Celestes”.
With this result, the position encourages Liverpool, which is next in the table, although success continues in the hands of the Spanish team Pep Guardiola, who will host Aston Villa on the last day. However, he could have left the goal sentenced with a victory that eluded him.
Now, Liverpool can move within a point if they win at Southampton on Tuesday and bring the outcome of the season to the final date, next weekend.
It should be noted that City found themselves in a tricky match against an opponent seeking a European goal, a Europa League spot, and moved into a two-goal lead in the first half thanks to a brace from Jarrod Bowen.
City can be champions on Tuesday without playing if Liverpool do not beat Southampton in their game on matchday thirty-seven. If the reds add the three points, everything will be decided on the final date, next weekend.
