The developments in the final round of the Premier League were truly surprising. The final round witnessed the competition for 3 tickets to the Champions League between 5 teams including Man City, Newcastle, Chelsea, Aston Villa and Nottingham.

While Man City and Chelsea scored early and secured victory against Fulham and Nottingham, Newcastle's fate was no longer in their hands. In the 61st minute, Newcastle let Everton's Carlos Alcaraz score.

At the moment, Aston Villa are drawing 0-0 with Man United. The score is just enough to help Aston Villa squeeze into the top 5, while Newcastle loses their ticket to the Champions League. In the rest of the match, Newcastle tried to fight back to find an equalizer but were helpless.

In that situation, the "magpies" can only hope that Man United will win against Aston Villa. That result will help Newcastle get a ticket to the Champions League.

Man United have played badly in many matches this season. If there is a team that should not be expected, the "Red Devils" must be the first name mentioned. But it is unbelievable that Man United, who have played poorly all season, suddenly played well against Aston Villa. It must be admitted that Man United had an advantage of one more player from the end of the first half (Emiliano Martínez was sent off), but to be fair, the "Red Devils" fought with a different spirit than usual.

As a result, Amad Diallo headed the opening goal for Man United (minute 76). Then in the 87th minute, Christian Eriksen scored from the penalty spot, raising the score to 2-0, sinking Aston Villa's hopes.

After a bitter defeat to Man United, Aston Villa sadly watched Newcastle get a ticket to the Champions League despite the "magpies" losing to Everton. Aston Villa had the necessary condition for Newcastle to stumble, but they did not meet the sufficient condition.
