At Manchester, England:
Edin Dzeko (90'+2) and Sergio Aguero (90'+4) provided the scoring as Manchester City came from behind on Sunday, the final day of the league season, to upend visiting Queens Park Rangers 3-2 to win the English Premier League championship, the Citizens' first top-flight title since 1968, depriving local rivals Manchester United (who defeated Sunderland 1-0 on the road) the opportunity to repeat as champions. Despite the defeat, QPR (who finished with ten men after Joey Barton's red-card ejection at 55 minutes), thanks to Bolton's 2-2 road draw at Stoke City (the visitors were relegated, ending their 11-year top-flight run), still survived their relegation battle and will play again in the Premiership next season.
