This was a match where Man City completely dominated, but the poor finishing ability of coach Guardiola and his team, along with the brilliant performance of goalkeeper Henderson, caused The Citizens to accept defeat. The only goal of the match was scored by Eze in the first half after a well-coordinated attack from Crystal Palace's home field.

With this championship, Crystal Palace will represent England in the Europa League (European Cup C2) season 2025/2026. Meanwhile, Man City ended the 2024/2025 season without any title. The Manchester team is also at risk of not participating in the European Cup C1 next season.
