Manchester United is yet again the champion. By beating Wigan Athletic with two goals to nil, Manchester United won their seventeenth league title and ten under Sir Alex Fergusson as the manager. On the other side
Chelsea too had a very good chance of being the champion but Manchester United had to lose their final match against
Wigan which thankfully did not happen.
Chelsea played against Bolton Wanderers and only managed to draw a single point which was not enough for them to hold the title. I was watching the live telecast of Chelsea against Bolton and before the end of the first half no teams could score a goal. On the other hand Manchester United had already gone up against Wigan in the first half. I was feeling the pressure as the score of one nil in the first half could never be regarded as an assurance for a victory. The cable channel too was updating with live scores of other matches being played. Suddenly Manchester United’s second goal was scrolling which was when I was relieved. Chelsea however had taken the lead but when time was running out, Bolton scored an equalizer. So this was the moment when I jumped in joy because Chelsea did not have enough time to beat Bolton and there was very less chance of Manchester United being beaten by Wigan. This is how Manchester United achieved their seventeenth league title.
Now Manchester United is just a win away from another title of the season. On 21st of May, Manchester United will be playing against Chelsea for the UEFA Champions league Championship.
The premier league came to an end. The match which was totally out of the blue was the match between Middlesbrough and Manchester City. Middlesbrough thrashed Manchester City with a scoreline of 8 goals to one.
