goodbyes to liverpool. and a stunning solo ride moves pogacar a step closer to a first zero title. —— giro. welcome to the programme. manchester city have won the premier league title for the fourth successive season, becoming the first team in english football history to do so. leading at the start of the day, all they had to do was better arsenal, who were two points behind them, and they did it in style, beating west ham 3—1. katie gornall was at the etihad to witness history. they've been selling champions, banners, flags and scarves here since since full time. but in truth, they probably had them ready for weeks. and the fans were confident that today would be the day because they know city have

been in this position before and theyjust don't falter, as you say, with the finish line in sight. they are a relentless winning machine and now they have done something unique. they have made history and won four league titles in a row. it's something that the great teams of the past, over decades, over a century of english football haven't been able to attain. the likes of huddersfield in the 19205, the great arsenal team in the 19305, liverpool, that team of the 19805 that enjoyed so much success. and of course, manchester united's teams under sir alex ferguson in that era, they were never able to go more than three titles in a row. city have managed that and it is history made here at the etihad. of course, for many outside of city's fanbase, and the fans here won't like me for mentioning it, but there is something of a cloud currently over this achievement. while those financial charges against the club from the premier league remain unresolved. it's been more than a year since they were hit with 115 allegations of breaching premier league

financial rules, charges they strongly deny, and there seems no hearing confirmed yet. so in the meantime, city will get their hands on this trophy. they might get their hands on another one next weekend. they take on manchester united in the fa cup final, hoping to become the first team to complete a double domestic double. so it's been an incredible six league titles in the last seven years for city's manager pep guardiola. in terms of numbers, nobody had been better than us. so the records, the goals and points, and four in a row. i said before in your colleagues, so i land here tomorrow and i said, the next seven years, you win six premier leagues. i said, "are you crazy?" so i cannot figure out it's impossible. so we have done something unbelievable. yeah. one of the best days of my life, i think.

just to start the game so well with the early start that i scored. yeah. one of the best feelings today, for sure. to put ourselves in history, so it's never been done before. so itjust shows how hard it is. things going my way at the moment and i want to continue working at it. so many things that can be done. just want to keep going on it, but still got one more fun to go. it all means that arsenal finished behind city for the second year in a row, ending their campaign with a 2—1 home victory over everton. and had it not been for some fine saves from everton�*s, jordan pickford, the margin of victory could have been even better. it's their 28th win of the season, which is a club record. it's the only way. so now we have we seen it there and we are there. and they took it away from us, you know, and it's the second season. so there's only one way to do it. you has to be more determined. you have to be more ambitious. you need to have a lot of courage and push every limit and everything that we have,

because that's the next step. proud of them. upset today because obviously, we was hoping that one of these london clubs can do us a favor, but they haven't. but we come again next season. it feels disappointing now, but when we look back, i we'll reflect on what - an amazing achievement that how much progress we've made this l season and how much hope there is for next season. well, meanwhile at anfield, jurgen klopp said farewell to liverpool after nearly nine years in charge. he signed off with a two—nil home win over wolves in a part—carnival, part—sad atmosphere as fans said goodbye to their most successful manager in the premier league. ben croucher reports. you are the best people in the world. thank you. if you didn't know it already, in liverpool, jurgen klopp will never walk alone. amazing. absolutely amazing. brought happiness to every liverpool fan's life for the last ten years. he just made the city a better place and he's made us believe again. nine years ago, an ordinary

manager walked into anfield or in his words... i'm the normal one. maybe if you want this. what followed was an era defined notjust by the trophies, but by his charisma, his character, an indelible legacy left in liverpool. once the small matter of the football was out of the way. a win over wolves. the main attraction. i'm so happy about you all. about the atmosphere, about the game, about being part of this family, about us, how we celebrated this day, this just incredible. thank you so much. from doubters to believers. but for a team a city along, they'd have conquered more, too. but for now, with his head held high, it's goodbye to the kop and klopp. ben croucher, bbc news. well, elsewhere, there were wins for newcastle. manchester united, who finished eighth, their worst ever premier league finish. nottingham forest. chelsea, crystal palace, fulham and tottenham, who finish above chelsea in fifth to qualify for the europa league. as expected, luton were

officially relegated today. they conceded 85 league goals this season, with only sheffield united and darmstadt letting in more across europe's top five leagues. we scored a lot of goals this year. we've been good to watch. we've been involved in loads of great games, but as i say, we've conceded too many and that balance is something that we've got to try to address, and we know where we need to keep improving and keep working on. but we we have grown and we've changed and evolved and improved so much. there's no doubt about that. so a lot of good stuff that we can take and attack the championship next year. well, there was no fairytale sign—off in liguei kylian mbappe, who was left out of the paris saint—germain side for their final league game of the season of metz. psg have already been crowned league champions for a record extending 12th time, but the star striker, who is leaving after seven seasons at the club, wasn't selected by coach luis enrique.

mbappe is psg's all—time leading scorer with 256 goals. he's expected to join the spanish champions, real madrid. now, cricket and england's women completed a three—nil t20 series clean sweep over pakistan. danni wyatt top—scored with 87 as they made 176 all out at headingley. the target proved well beyond pakistan, who started well, but fell 3a runs short at headingley. the two sides start a one—day series on thursday as they build towards the world cup later in the year. now, formula one, and max verstappen won his fifth race of the season, holding off a late surge from lando norris to take victory at the emilia romagna grand prix, despite struggling with his tyres in the closing stages at imola. verstappen held on to stretch his lead in the standings to 48 points as he chases a fourth world title. ferrari charles leclerc took the final podium place to move into second in the championship ahead of verstappen�*s team mate sergio perez. especially the last ten, 15 laps,

i had no grip any more. i was really sliding a lot. i saw lando closing in. so, yeah, the last ten laps was just flat out. but it's, it's very difficult when the tyres are not working any more and you have to go flat out. so i couldn't afford to make too many mistakes. luckily, we didn't. and yeah, super happy of course to win here today. some tennis for you now. and alexander zverev comfortably won the italian open, serving his way to a straight—sets victory over chile's nicholas harry and claim his second italian open title. it moves the german up to fourth in the world rankings and puts him in a great place ahead of the french open, which starts next weekend. winning my first ever here in rome and winning my first after the injury, also in rome. so rome is a very special place for me. i said at the beginning of the week, if rome is the place first for me, i'm extremely happy about it. and, yeah, i mean, obviously a very, very special week. i mean, the focus is on paris, right?

that's for sure. but let me enjoy this one. let me enjoy this one for a day or so, and then i'll have my full focus on paris. now, tadej pogacar continued his one man march to his first giro d'italia title with another stage win and now has a huge lead in the overall race standings. the slovenian two—time tour de france champion spent most of the 15th stage sitting comfortably in the peloton, before making his move with around 1a kilometres to go, leaving his rivals for the pinkjersey in his wake is pogacar�*s fourth stage win of the tour so far. and he now leads britain's geraint thomas by nearly seven minutes, with the event finishing in rome next sunday. and last but not least, america's xander schauffele has won the us pga golf's second major of the year. schauffele led every round of the tournament, including equalling the record for the lowest score in major history on his first round at the valhalla course in kentucky, he managed to birdie the last to take the tournament from bryson dechambeau, who was sitting in the clubhouse

and thought maybe he would get it. but it's gone to xander schauffele. there's much more on an enthralling final day of the us pga on the bbc sport website. and as i say, it's been an extraordinary day in the english premier league, where manchester city have won their fourth title in the row, the first team ever to do that in english football history. so for me and the team here at sportsday at the bbc sports centre, goodbye. hello there. contrasting conditions as we head through this week. now, it's a dry and a warm start, with temperatures still above the seasonal average for most. lots of sunny spells around, but it will be turning cooler and then wetter and windier as we head through the middle part of the week. with heavy, more persistent outbreaks of rain, temperatures returning back to the seasonal average. now, this is how we're

starting off monday morning. a fresher feel to things. there are some patches of mist and fog around. lots of low cloud, particularly towards these eastern coastal areas. some fret and haar have moved in from the north sea. but the strong may sunshine will get to work on that low cloud and murk. despite the grey start, there'll be some sunny spells coming through — even, perhaps, for eastern areas of scotland, down through north—east england, where it's been cloudy and cool of late. a feed of cooler, drier air. but with the onshore breeze, it's always going to feel a little colder here. a scattering of showers across northern ireland, perhaps for north wales, and a few showers for southern england. but for most of us, it's dry, it's warm and there will be a lot of sunshine around as well. a few more showers, though, overnight on monday into tuesday, just pushing northwards and westwards. again, some more fret and haar towards these north sea —facing coasts. but then in clearer spells out towards the east, temperatures could possibly drop as low as four degrees celsius. it's frost—free, but it's a cold start to the day for this time of year, for some. and then into tuesday,

there will be further showers. they'll be tracking their way northwards and westwards. a few more home—grown showers almost anywhere, too, with heavier downpours of rain possibly moving into the south—east of england. more showers across wales and northern ireland. but it'll still feel warm for the time of year. there'll still be some bright and sunny spells. possibly still 23 degrees celsius in south—west scotland. further south and east, in london, it's the chelsea flower show as we head through much of the rest of the week. do be prepared for some lower temperatures and a bit of wet weather at times as well. this area of low pressure will be moving in from the near continent as we head through wednesday and into thursday, tracking further northwards and westwards. so there will be some heavy downpours of rain, but still a lot of uncertainty, so do keep tuned to the forecast. but turning wetter, windier, cooler. temperatures closer to the seasonal average as we head through wednesday and thursday. possibly turning a bit warmer again for the start of the bank holiday weekend. bye— bye.
