with the start of all ten seconds away, time to send you to your match of choice. on the bench once again. still not fully fit. watching him taall the friends d family of lampard here today. >> more goals. lampard has played over 600 games in the premier league. will he end here with a bang today? we are all set . it will be southampton who will get the match under way. well, this time last year there

were champagne corks popping all around etihad stadium. it could prove to be a day of farewells and good-byes. for southampton it's all to play for in the quest to europe at the end of the superb campaign for the saints. they have a corner. putting the ball behind. terry gibson watching with me. southampton eager for a flying start. >> both teams have great motivation. man city want to finish in style in front of the home fans. southampton want to try to. improve. it's a fantastic achievement. they are on the front foot from the beginning of the game. >> steven davis. further away by sergio aguerr

are o. southampton starting in 7th with a chance of finishing in fifth place. hoping to reach european football for the first time in just over a decade. it would be a fitting end to a season which they have defied all expectation. here's aguero. a foul there by martin demichelis. the referee going inside his pocket. >> not a great start for demichelis. he has to add just. the severity of the foul, it's a yellow card. a couple minutes into the game that was a yellow card offense

and the right decision. poor decision-making from demichelis. >> chris may have been hoping for a quiet day. he 's gone to the pocket from the word go. more pressure from southampton. sent in by davis. good distance on it. it's hand mark day for hart playing his 300th game for man city today. hoping to end the season with the golden glove as the goalkeeper with the most clean sheets in the top flights this season. nathaniel klein with the throw. fonte is named southampton's player of the year at the end of campaign awards this week.

getting past silva. looking toward long. really good ball that by ryan bertrand. long could have made the most of it. >> it appeared long lacked belief from the moment the ball was crossed into the box that he could get on the end of it. you see pellegrini at the touch line as well, not happy with the start. we are only 3:30 into the game. southampton are in the attacking half of the pitch. winning the ball back quickly. moving the ball well as well. good start from southampton. >> a team with all to play for at southampton on this final day. that was a foul. then a free kick. shane long with the offense. might this be pel green's final day in charge of man city?

relinquish their title with barely a fight. many demands for more youth and more energy about the place next season. pellegrini will be the man to rebuild manchester city? time will tell. silva. kolarov. a play to silva. well read by bertrand. >> first sign there was manchester city clicking into top gear. passing there with silva. >> here toure. his future open to debate after comments made. all of the issues that must be dealt with by pellegrini if he's

still making the calls. >> i i think he would have a say. couple of goals from toure reminding us toward the end of the season of the talent he's shown from the first minute he step ed into the premier league. >> here's milner. mopping up for southampton. back for davis. he's been restored after a couple of games on the bench. had a day to remember with the hat trick inside three minutes against as ton villa. >> seen here. >> broke that record.

the quickest ever hat trick in the premier league. that record which many people felt was unbeatable. >> i find it hard to believe it was time in 2:56 to score three goals, get the ball back three times from the opposing team having kick off and -- i have seen longer celebrations than that for one goal. remarkable story last week from mane. >> it was southampton's sixth loss. signing off their home season at st. mary's. aguero. zabaleta. milner. toure. fernandinho. aguero. the winner of the golden boots.

31 goals scored this season. 25 of those in the premier league. the final day hero here. three years ago with that dramatic moment against queen's plate rangers. zabaleta. city have found tear rhythm here. zabaleta wants more. looking for milner. went with him. there will be a corner. highest of the game for manchester city. >> that's man city being patient with the build-up. willing to drop back and help out with midfield and defensive unit. >> james milner with the corner. back to silva. here's milner. well worth it.

davis defending the post area for southampton. >> switched off there, southampton. really surprised. they are working hard. they are well organized and well coached. rather too easily from that corner. >> not always the most comfortable first season in football. the french international defender. that's a player they brought inner for huge money last summer. 42 million pounds. a massive price tag. >> i think we can expect to see better from mangolo like so many players. we forget his age and look at the price tag rather than his potential. i'm sure man city did their

homework and expect him to improve over the years. you would hope so anyway. >> here's shay long. he scored twice last weekend. there's a foul there. >> another set piece chance here for southampton. >> does well again. tracks the run. >> starting only his third game in the premier league. hoping to extend for next yearment a chance to impress today. up from the back for southampton here. two in the wall for man city. in by davis.

fonte had a glancing touch on it. 15 months ago. ricochet here. looking for manet. zabaleta with the potential danger. joe hart. >> determination from southampton to win the ball back quicker. they are getting to the loose balls quickerer tan the manchester city players. >> two goalkeepers who are each playing their 300th match for their respective clubs here. davis, 3 years of age. j -- 30 years of age. joe hart ten years his davis. davis played three years ago here with a 3-2 defeat. we saw the penalty from silva. hart has a wonderful record for

a goalkeeper. one and a half million pounds. >> smashing buy. >> kolarov. toure. silva. kolarov. behind hip to clear with klein. mentioned earlier about southampton wanted to keep their best players this summer. klein has been linked with a move awayment silva. kolarov, that side of him. kolarov's ball in was a pace he wanted. well placed to clear. >> davis on a couple occasions managed that.

that's a double pivot in midfield from southampton with davis. the players in front look like they have a threat in them. long, mane and jurisic. well rounded center forward pt. >> here's milner. silva. now toure. kolarov. there at the end of a promising move from manchester city. >> better quality than that. good attacking play from manchester city. that's an issue for the two holding midfield players at southampton. the likes of milner, lampard and silva are. of course aguero. kolarov certainly.

>> holding up here demichelis. mane enjoying an impressive end to his campaign for southampton. bertrand on sud here despite the protests of some of the home fans. appeared to be level with that. flags stay down. here's wanyama. klein. he'll end his season on england duty next month. a header. brave header by the italian striker pelle. >> asking for more support in the box. he was the only southampton player attacking the cross. manet was slow to react last week. he was sent off on that occasion.

>> southampton in this hunt for the europa league. fifth and sinceth guaranteed to qualify. we'll be hoping to try and secure things today. zabaleta was caught there by a heavy challenge but the referee said play on. still winded by that. meantime here's silva. looking for aguero. well defended. >> despite the fact that it's the last game of the season, zabaleta, of course , wanyama stuck on aguero. >> toure almost to aguero. lurking if behind. the left-hand channel to manchester city.

lam lampard. comfortable header for fonte. long clipped from behind by fernandinho. >> fernandinho just inquiring. might have been more of a clip on the ankle. still nudging the back of the brazilian midfield player. takes hr than that to stop shane long. pelle with a flick on. zabaleta there with the unnecessary clearance. joe hart was waiting behind him. lack of a shout there from the goalkeeper. >> could be a lack of

communication. but zabaleta not taking chances. no disagreement afterwards. doesn't appear to be much disagreement between hart and zabaleta. >> despite falling well short. it would be a sixth straight win. sixth in the last home game. the win would send them back down to the championship. southampton with the chance to build from the throw of klein. now the feature is also somewhat up in the air.

the end of it from madrid. kolarov. looking for the run of aguero. perhaps favoring bertrand. the throw to toure. kept in play by zabaleta. toure. silva. toure for lampard to silva. toure. away to silva again. stops by klein who stayed tight to his man. >> almost like a set play at times. when silva gets it, everything stops. it's up to him to pick the right pass, find the right player. make the right movement.

i think it's fair to say more often than not he does find the right ingredient to break down the defense. >> perhaps one of the few players to emerge with critter for the end of the season for city. he's been fouled here. shane long the offender. there will be a word. >> high boot from shane. i think it's a case of not much contact made. but a push in the back. ventures forward. toure standing outside the box. not using his height and presence. fernandinho is calling hem in towards the box.

>> aguero has stopped short. watched. touched by silva to lampard. now toure. city find themselves 30 yards back from where they have begun. he groans from the home support at that. >> two groans from the two central defenders who made the run from the halfway line into the box. the ball wasn't delivered. >> the pass by demichelis. but the pace of kolarov came back to help out his teammate. fonte. a header. now fernandinho. in for milner. picked up by davis. shane long. past zabaleta. shane long. really good chance. he was straight at joe hart. the best chance here so far. >> excellent play from

southampton with davis. pushed him into the midfield again. pelle with a great flick. long does well to win the initial tussle. in on goal. hart, good goalkeeping. reached the attempted finish from long. >> davis with a corner. the players attack the near post area. kolarov with a touch away. the real scare there from city. toure. bertrand with a tackle. on by silva. aguero, he's on side. and he was mighty close from the breakthrough goal. >> milner at the far post urging his team pamate to look across l and square it. a word. a little slap on the back. toure with a wonderful pass.

a pass from the manchesterer city players combining well. aguero went for power. he was hurried and chased down. in the blink of an eye. zabaleta with a throw. kolarov. adding muscle. wanyama deemed guilty of the foul. he's protesting his innocence. chris is unmoved. >> the city fans aren't happy

probably feeling a few of the southampton players are close to a yellow card. wanyama on kolarov there. possibly not a yellow card offense. that may be the last warning for the midfield player. >> kolarov with a free kick. helped on by milner. not the best delivery. lampard with the header. city with the free kick chances they have had. the pressure there by james milner. that's the endeavor which has won over the fans here for the past five years. many will be sad to see his potential departure. >> again he's a player that man city should be trying to keep. amazing how much money a club

spends on bringing in genuine quality. supporters still recognizing, still endareses himself to the fans by working as hard as milner does. >> here's silva. toure. milner for toure. there to be hit. aguero with a chance. a wonderful save by davis. aguero off target with the rebound. at 38, davis with wonderful reflexes. >> he certainly is. the initial attempt from toure. ub could be questioned that a goalkeeper could do better. determined to make up for the mistake and he did that. toure lets it fly there. should have been a routine save. once he spilled it, aguero was on it in a flash. great reflexes from davis. makes up for the mistake. not going to be mentioned

anymore as aguero does miss on a couple of occasions there. >> here's oliver now. shane long. good movement by bertrand. in towards --. fernandinho mopping up. a good pass to lampard. shane long back wlt challenge. yellow card is out again. shane long, few complaints at all. >> almost a professional. southampton were open. too many players beyond the ball this attack.

that space and the players in blue pouring forward from attack. denied then every chance at goal from shane long. >> what a piece in terms of long and demichelis. toure to lampard. well defended by. kolarov. for milner. zabaleta. sul va. now toure. lampard. fairly quiet game so far coming in toward the half hour mark.

lampard with a good tackle. a foot in by davis. send sends manet away. blocked off by fernandinho. >> well in possession there mane. trying to up the tempo. cut inside fernandinho and gets enough collision to get a free kick. he was waiting for more support which was slow in coming that time from southampton. >> just shy of 3,000 saints fans have come north today. a season of so many highs for them. with an end in style here. davis with the free kick. a poor ball that by his usual high standards. bertrand has to be careful here with aguero close to him.

a suggestion of handball by bertrand. it was unspotted by the officials. out now by southampton against demichelis. still no whistle. good ball that by lampard. now aguero. milner. that will be a corner. fonte with the with challenge. >> certainly suits manchester city when the game isser more often. southampton are nice and compact. a difficult team to break down. they are working hard. can they maintain the pace? 27 minutes, last game of the season. lots of football play by the southampton players. manchester city with a bigger squad. >> milner's ball this. mane picked up the pieces.

there was a hint of handball aguero is trying to break away a few minutes ago. no whistle in the end against bertrand. lampard foul. lampard, 609th appearance this in the premier league today. a wonderful servant here. over so many years for chelsea. before that breaking through at west ham united. finally making his move to the mls after this season's done. the corner won there bile kolarov. shane long trapped back. >> shane long has been a threat

and attack. we have seen him more than three or four occasions tracking back, chasing back. man city just able now to put the pressure on southampton. >> kolarov with the outswinging ball then. too high for mangala. fantastic first touch by silva. he's still going on here . deflects toward managalamangala. that's aguero. eventually away by bertrand. a bit of magic there by david silvament almost opened the door. now jovetic for southampton. mane to the right.

here's wanyama. might fancy his chances here. eventually opts wide for shane long. early ball in. joe hart with a good punch. on we go again. the game opening up a touch. we ticked past the half hour mark. lampard. aguero. david silva. a little bit of space. milner. it just had to be lampard in style! in front of his watching father, catching for the day one of the true greats of the premier league era. frank lampard with the breakthrough. it's 1-0 to manchester city.

>> a strike. very open southampton. we made the mistake of saying maybe frank lampard was too quiet. i have been watching. he's making the driving runs into the box. his aim today was to finish on a high note and he's certainly done that. trademark runs of lampard. brilliant football up. he's done this time and time again over the last 16 seasons. he's in there at the right place at the right time. plenty of work to do as well. james milner fires it across. he has to make sure he has the technique and the skill to make sure it gets past davis. gives manchester city a one-goal lead. memorable goal for frank lampard. >> a special, special moment around the etihad stadium for family, friends, and supporteresupporterer s alike. ear's aguero.

denied by davis again. almost two goals there in the blai blink of an eye. >> the quality is a huge difference. they are planning quick bursts. they are able to complete canness. aguero could have had a hat trick today. >> city in full flow now. here's silva. you have to say so many people were hoping to see lampard go out with a goal like that. so typical of his career over the years. of course not southampton here today. what a way to open the goal scoring with just over a half hour gone. milner. away by fonte but not far. kolarov. locked by shane long. >> it was funny. we have seen frank lampard,

senior, in the sands. i remember asking years ago how senior how young frank was doing in the early stages ofs i career. it's gone by the in the blink of an eye. frank lampard senior now and how young frank has turned out. a wonderful career. >> a lot of people remember he was frank lampard, jr., when he started playing because his dad was such a well respected and famous player. >> got the 177th goal scored in the premier league. as a midfield player, quite outstanding and this is so typical. >> he knows the power. he's on the cross for milner. that's what milner is trying to do. needs to get the angle of the foot exactly right. he did exactly that.

>> admired by so many. his eighth goal for city. his first since new year's day. silva. laid back for toure. cut out well by klein. kolarov. having a go. we all know about the long range spectacular moments around these parts. >> it's tough in southampton. kolarov. the latest man city player to have an attempt at goal. not in the greatest of form away from home. i think they wanted to tie it up before the season ends. decent performance here. they are playing well. could be three or four down. >> here's jovetic. to demichelis. sliced by zabaleta. the touch of silva means it will be a southampton throw.

southampton have lost their last four away. stretching back to a draw at chelsea two months ago. jovetic. that's good strong defending there by demichelis. he really has grown in stature over a couple of years here at manchester city. >> a player pellegrini knew well. slowly but surely coming to terms with life in the premier league. he's been a good signing for manchester city over the last couple of season ises. >> pellegrini hoping to lead city to their first lead over southampton since the very are first season of the premier league in the early 1990s. it was a pair of wins. frank lampard.

nathaniel klein in for long. the flag did go up. it wouldn't are have counted. off target there anywhere. shane long with the effort. >> i think he'd be relieved that the flag did go up. doesn't go down as a missed chance. you can see it is the correct decision. the assistant referee waiting for lock to make contact with the ball. >> mane. nice drop of the shoulder. should have power. well blocked by mangala. bertrand. bertrand. toure. here he goes. toure. with a trademark burst at midfield. aguero here. oh, a ricochet.

a save yet again from davis. >> davis again denies mampbl city. once toure gets going you can hear the buzz in the crowd. causes panic among defenses and so does aguero. the panic was nearly enough for southampton to concede the second. >> might have been a spectacular own goal there. very grateful to his goalkeeper. for now the lead is just one. city still applying pressure. kolarov. went for placement that time rather than power. davis earning his money today. >> able to enjoy life as well. 38 years of age. he's been a good goalkeeper. playing against manchester city and all the stars, spectacular save. thoroughly enjoyed that one.

good save. one that was needed. >> the defeat today would mean for sure southampton were finished 7th this season. which would be the club's highest ever premier league finish. a record points tab for them, too. become fans of arsenal for a few days or so. the f.a. cup final with arsenal up against aston villa at wembley. if arsenal win that 7th would secure a spot in the europa league next year. bertrandment. waiting for the pass which was maybe slow to arrive. >> a tactic that pellegrini has

always used. they put up a fence on the 18 yard box. demichelis is one of the reasons why they brought him here to organize that. he was manager. central defender. it's taken mangala a while to get used to demichelis. knows the limitations. hasn't got pace . but they halt that 18 yard box as much as they can. >> zabaleta with a throw. into the feet of aguero. here's clyne. if you believe some of the speculation might remain in manchester. he's been linked with a move to united at the end of the season. talks ongoing over an extension

to his contract with the saints. a deal which now expires next season. toure to demichelis. lampard. zabaleta. lampard into aguero. well defended. a decent pass too. mane. got past demichelis. couldn't quite keep the ball alive though. >> approaching halftime. hasn't been the happiest of afternoons so far for sergio aguero. takes a knock here on that challenge with wanyama.

coming up for aguero. just knocked in the calf, i think. he missed two or three good chances to add to his 25-goal hole in the premier league this season. >> scored eight times in the previous six games. a hat trick the last home match. actually his 21st game in a row from the start. great to see him enjoying such a sustained spurt of fitness. his longest stretch of games in his career with manchester city. as you say, a big month or so coming up for him in a few weeks time cup of america in chivy. argentina hoping to win that title. scored along with demichelis and

his other teammate zabaleta. clyne. nice touch by long. jovetic. looking. demichelis. the covering pan for manchester city. swept up really well there. pelle looked like he had to beat in the central defenders. demichelis read the situation. >> he has vincent kompany on the bench hoar. these two forging an effective partnership as the two central defensive players.

manchester city. this one so far here following a pattern but a long way to go yet. so it was a bright southampton start but as the game has gone on city are the dominant force. their lead might have been even greater. lampard again. kolarov. looking for milner. now a chance for southampton to counter. mane.

bertrand. here's fonte. steven davis has scored here in a 3-2 loss a few years ago. nice turn by jove tick. a good ball toward long. pelle is there. big chance again on the stroke of halftime there for southampton. >> the chances manchester city should be far ahead. but it's only the one goal. southampton are still very much in the game. pelle there. just seizes the loose ball. jovetic does well. he's been flun sal in attack for southampton. pelle can't hit the target. at least into making the save. >> we are moving now into first half stop panel time of which there will be just the one with

minute. >> pelle. holding off fernandinho. now jovetic. a little bit of space here. southampton ending its half like they began it. mane lost his footing at a crucial moment. >> slip there is, doesn't he? hasn't had many occasions in the first half are where zabaleta hasn't had to cover. it was one against one. driving into the box. just slips there. nothing comes of that attack for southampton. >> they might be behind. plenty of signs of life for the saints. see if they will manage to come back in the second half. there goes the halftime whistle. it's been a frank lampard show

so far on his farewell outing in the barclays premier league. it's his goal which divides these sides. it came after half an hour in typical frank lampard style. arriving late from midfield, the shot beyond davis in the southampton goal. davis before that and after made outstanding saves. aguero, the lead might have been more but at halftime on this final day of the campaign at etihad stadium it's man city one 1, southampton 0.

♪ ♪ hey jude welcome back to etihad stadium. one goal so far.

no lack of first half chances on show between man city and southampton. the one goal was scored by frank lampard, who else, with just over half an hour gone. might be the final day of the premier league campaign. but football never stops these days. tomorrow, city are off on a post season tour to north america. defensive here. has to improvise with a back heel to goal which sails over the top. a first half with plenty of chances. southampton here on the front foot again. is. >> certainly this season the attributes to improvise on n the penalty box. spectacular goals. the finishes he made for southampton this season. unlucky on this occasion. difficult chance. >> scored 16 goal this is season. 12 in the premier league.

only one of those away from home. that was all the way back in august at west ham. the only man playing every game in the campaign for southampton. the end of the first season in english football. he's won many of course. the doubters truly silenced. james milner has been by steven davis for the first time today. kolarov. toure.

wanyama. jovetic. southampton will try to over turn the deficit if they are to achieve a top six finish. milner into aguero. back heel. lampard is back again. helped again. lampard in the thick of the action once more. mane for southampton. that's a touch short for clyne which saw toure.

the challenge. clyne goes down. gets the free kick. seen in this one. just towards joe hart. dispatches quickly. finds david silva. aguero. tackle by clyne. here's shane long. mane advanced. shane long couldn't find either teammate though.

hull three and a half months ago in a 1-0 draw. six ones here the last few months. city has scored 21 goals, just the one so far today. because of that, southampton still have plenty of hope left in the match. to long.

silva. clyne. lampard. now jovetic. davis. bertrand. team of the year. bertrand is there again. needs a good ball in there.

lampard himself a former premier league champ i don't know. playing in a team this year who have seen the title slip away. this season for man city. knocked out in the fourth round of the f.a. cup here. the man in charge come next season. toure. mangala. kolarov. toure.

heading for inter, to join again with roberto mancini. the man jumping around on this ground three years ago today when they won the title with a win over queen's plate ranark r. rodriguez traveled as part of the party today. not in the squad. but a player who spent 13 months out after that was picked up here last april. off side. flag up there. denied by the foot of the upright. but the flag was up. >> again from manchester city. not coincidence.

a good little spirited flight back from southampton. >> southampton's last final day match against man city was the last match of the old main road when they were near in may of 2003. here's mane. come the way of stef davis. now jovetic. off side. the flag is up again. pelle not pleased about it. >> he hasn't argued about the others. he's making a point of disagreeing with the assistant referee. it's the line again i will keep repeating because the man city back four keep repeating the drill. southampton have to be a little bit more clever. trying to break it down.

one of the reasons they have fallen off the pace. pellegrini has pointed to some of the dropped points against teams in the bottom half of the table. inconsistent after the new year. starting the final day eight points behind the champions chelsea. well defend there had by kolarov to win the tackle. keep the players as well. toure. silva. in for lampard.

many points of view here. here's silva. davis with a tackle which comes the way of jovetic. long want it is early ball. jovetic. off his toes by fernandinho. now he's scampering away. aguero. toure. now lampard.

>> it's easy to paycheck progress from defending the situation. 20, 30 yards. the halfway line is vacant. southampton are having a go. why shouldn't they? >> here's aguero. zabaleta arriving. there by mane. now lampard. city fans want the team to end with a flourish here. aguero. now toure. james milner. lampard with a header.

being boxed in but the referee pulls it back. milner was fouled. >> getting into the pitch. people chasing back toward goal. lampard here, the far post. difficult to generate the power. unlike the goal there is none from james milner. davis. >> the first half goal was his ninth of the career against southampton. second this season. score ed back at the win in november. coming off the bench in

southampton. wonder if he'll be around next season. the end of the loan. he wants to say time will tell on that front. a debut when he was 17 three years ago. 90th appearance for southampton. he's still just 20. mane. brushing off milner. pelle. off side again.

that's born out of frustration from not being able to break down the trap. silva in for toure. silva. well worth it. kolarov. waiting for the ball in. locked in by clyne. fernandinho. pelle is off side yet again.

now to the point where you say, yes, good defending. he has to look at himself as well. >> must be a new record. in the second half alone it must be at least six times. there is a look of disgust on the face. i think pelle has to realize he can't get in the penalty box. it was a quick decision. good from demichelis. pelle has to be there so they can play the ball to him. he can lay the ball off. the runs have to come from deep for southampton to get themselves in the penalty box. >> here's silva. aguero. silva looking to find lampard. made a burst in midfield. blocked there by clyne. at the expense of a corner. just over an hour gone.

in this corner. >> kolarov. will he heed the advice? toward the near post area. there is a chance in there for mangala. he was about to let it fly. a place in europe. trailing here in manchester. clyne will off kolarov the way

of long who knew he was in an off side position. >> a little more care taken from clyne. totally unmarked. making that run i was talking about from deep. he's clearly off side. >> the near touch line. the assistant referee will be retiring after this game. retiring with an aching arm. >> he doesn't need to move. he just stays in line with the with 18 yard box. he can be in the perfect position for the off side decisions to decide whether or not to. one of the young men to the czech republic.

very high hopes. bertrand. now mane. played by demichelis. it will be a corner. demichelis is complaining it was an off side. wasn't given. make the post of set pieces southampton. fonte pushing forward. pelle obviously will be the main threat. >> a corner. poor delivery. the first man is zabaleta. bertrand was in there. the pass was right.

southampton enjoying a good spell here. both set of players. the manager would like it. southampton would have to open up. city looking to hang on to the lead. looking to turn on the counter attack. bringing a little bit more energy to the attacking play. aguero. replaced aguero. interesting to see. >> mane.

here's clyne. beyond him and bertrand arrives at the back post area. here is the change. the player going off pt. it's toure. you wonder here whether it might be the last we see of toure. in a sky blue shirt of manchester city. to a man. all the fans around us here are rising to their feet. after five years here with city. might it be farewell.

>> a great footballer. he deserves that oh vacation. so much for the club. -- ovation. such a huge part of their two hit wins in the past three years. that might be the end of an era in some regards. slight changing of the guard. do you know what we need? he's unstoppable when he fancies the performance. how he can sustain those runs.

driving forward. shane long with a tame finish in the end of. trying to be precise. he'll be wanting to try and impose himself with the remaining quarter of the match. 28 fans. scored just twice for the clubment the last of those last week on his return to swansea after coming off the bench. >> become quite unusual now a player to transfer in the same league from club to club during that mid winter transfer window.

that was an acceptance that we won't see the best of hip. we wouldn't see him on a regular basis until next season. does give him an opportunity to fresh preseason. i'm sure he'll be a good addition to this squad. manchester city. >> here's lampard. milner. fernandinho. kolarov. into the sort of area where he would usually thrive. didn't quite make it to get the contact that time. mane. the turn of pace for southampton. here's the press. a goal kick. frustration of the saints fans.

so, too. >> sort of just agreeing with the southampton supporters. it should have been a corner. predominantly fans donning orange outfits. this is so easy on the eye. >> the ball comes to silva in that situation from the

supporters of man city. they know exactly what will happen. almost a groan of surprise that he didn't find a team hate. pick up the rebound. doesn't really get the control over the attempt he would like. >> foul there by milner. city hoping to recall what will be their 14th win out of 19 league games. chelsea would have a better home record this season. here's pelle. couldn't quite find prouse, the furthest teammate parted with him. >> trying to get behind the manchester city defense. david silva.

a shot towards goal. hard to tell what he was thinking in the end. it did come from this. i i assume he's more accurate than that. >> warpress. deflects toward long. demichelis is covering well. bertra bertrand. the downward header is toward mane. left him out there. >> he really doesn't make a good contact, does he?

demichelis this time cannot get out of the box in time. he's in an on side position. bertrand picks him out. takes the power off the attempt. >> that's been given away cheaply. shane long passed demichelis. long with a shot. the power or precision to beat joe hart. worked so hard, tireslessly to give support to pelle. one or two opportunities himself. he's running himself in the ground to try and get southampton a result that can maybe finish them in fifth placement. >> here's bonny.

the pass goes astray. just ease off the gas, the home team here. that might give the saints a chance to seize upon the that. here's mane. trying to thread a very intricate pace toward pelle which doesn't come off from the southampton point of view. james milner is down here. a change about to take place for city. we understood frank lampard was the player who would make way. there might be a change of mind here if milner is forced off. this is where it took place. interesting change from pellegrini. certainly not as hard to change looking to shore up things and make sure to hang onto the three

points and the one goal lead. expires after this match. navs is ready and waiting. not sure who he'll come on for at the moment. not the manner in which he wants to depart. >> we saw him doing some stretching. looked like he had an issue regarding the back and hip before kick off. an impact from shane long. impact injury.

>> for james milner who is hobbling off for now. trying to run off the injury carried on. replaced by the dutch winger and header elia. trying to run off the problem. he's back on the pitch now. here's aguero. with this sort of range. it's not his sort of day. >> he has not had his shooting boots on today. surprisingly he's not able to hit the target. we see two strikers there. the lung up between the two. just the sheer presence of the

striker causing the southampton defense problems. >> now the change plays for city. so will end the premier league career of the player so widely admired, so widely rmted. -- respected. his father watching as lampard depart it is stage and an emotional moment for him. his 609th and final match in the premier league. he departs here as a potential match winner as he's been so often down the years. >> the man city supporters have embraced lampard for the one season. been a rival of theirs for so many years. thoroughly enjoyed having him here for the unexpected bringing down the curtain. showing appreciation today.

here's elia. bertrand. waiting. a header which came in was off mangala. kept in play by clyne. in towards pelle again. long was there, too. with interest. bertrand. his first involvement off the bench for city. to bonny. city fans. lampard's career. will now watch from afar. on the pls. mls. a hit there by zabaleta.

resting with mangala. physical there with the challenge. a free kick to manchester city. now james milner will take his leave again. it's been that sort of day again. standing ovations all around. for a player whose contract is about to expire, i think it will be good-bye for james milner. >> giving himself an injustice last time. there was a little bit of confusion.

kompany coming off the bencher for the second in a row. last start. came in the derby loss. kompany on to lead city on their lap of honor at the end of the match today. they salute their supporters who had to en dur at times a season which has dipped below the usual high standards. set to end as tinges stand with six straight wins which is no mean feat. >> demichelis moved in. kompany dropped this his usual position at center back.

surprised that kompany may have done it for the last ten minutes or so. keep the back four intact. it served them well today. >> clyne with a ball if. handball by pelle. no whistle forthcoming. ten minutes of time to go. southampton still needs something here. to have a chance of a top six finish. bonny. a challenge. pelle. mane has gone on. close to him. kompany had to be careful there. got the ball away in time. a little bit sloppy.

a little bit risky. expected to have more time there. >> a loose pass by wanyama. here's fonte. southampton posing all the questions. in the final stages here. mane, lovely start. got in beyond kolarov. away by kompany. mane. for the give and go. kolarov on the goal side. just struck him over. >> livening things up in good positions.

the player. southampton looked more likely team. to score. milner. the question is about the future of the coach. i understand it will be the end of season review with the owners and the coming hours or days. they make the points safe in the final game of the campaign here with sergio aguero. back with the tackle. zabaleta. in for nabs. mangala in for bonny. took it well.

almost struck iter very well. >> it was ridiculous, wasn't it? very little back lift. works hard to put the ball under control. just finds it easy to get it accurate. that will make life difficult for goalkeepers. wearing the shirt of manchester city. >> the total for the seasonen is 11 goals. nine came with swansea in the first part of the campaign. pelle. that maybe sums up his day. >> he's kept plugging away. not the quickest of players. i like his endeavor. he wants to run in behind the defense. stretch the defense. open up space as a team patem t patement -- teammate. excellent signing. good return with the goals. played a lot of football this

season for southampton. >> they might be pushing for potential plays in europe. easy to forget that it's only southampton's first season back in the premier league. it has been sustained progress. 40-8. now a chance at the top five on the final day. >> exactly right. i had forgot. the progress has been so quick. only their third season. they were a laughingstock by so many people. losing a manager. losing influential players. how well with they have done as a club. great replacements. >> here's aguero. clipped towards david silva. fernandinho.

navas. hasn't scored all season. trying to end that stretch in the remaining minutes here. navas again. silva. zabaleta. aguero. this is a short pass that one. goes kompany. zabaleta with the header. here's aguero. aguero.

aguero twisting and turning. initially beaten but stuck with his man. it's going to be the third time in four years. they double their money here. give their fans a late moment to cheer. navas with the corner. comes to aguero. not so this time. blocking this attempt from aguero. this was on target. would have to be saved by davis.

not where southampton have to be. the 87th minute. flicked away. mangala. by sergio aguero. he has his final day goal now. not the heroics of a few years ago this time. but the top scorer in the premier league ends the campaign on target yet again. his 26th lead of the season. 2-0 to manchester city. >> set pace routine to manchester city. goes for the goal. his right foot. left foot.

brought it home. give him a little bit of sats tags. his high standards. he knows he should have took one or two more of the chances but it's been a brilliant season personally for aguero. sergio aguero. amongs the goals again. 61 home games in the premier league. a fantastic return.

always enjoyable to watch. top scorer in the premier league comfortably this season. >> here's pelle. looks like southampton. last minute of normal time. zabaleta still battling away. put behind by mangala. attack by southampton. a tie for a grand finale from the saints. the ball then. zabaleta with a header away.

hopefully they win. seven straight wins at home. a clean sheet. a goal for aguero. here cops a goal for lampard.

in the near future. also saying, i think many wanted to stay as well. here's aguero. that will be a goal kick. we see the southampton fans coming out here. the arsenal shirts come next weekend as they hope that will be europa league football for next season. >> one of the clubs that generally wants to be this the europa league. all the club this is the premier league should look to do well in

that situation. terrific to see them. >> a good ball. guess with a. the flag is up. shane long. a different center back pair. the same tactic in the same drills day in, day out. hold the 18-yard box. have the nerve. >> they cheer on the ground as lampard was announced as the man of the match today. headline moment on the last game of the season. it was a great moment to witness. >> if you need a player to score a goal.

it was going to be a case. fernandinho. final few seconds now of stoppage time. his day to savor. his farewell appearance in the

premier league. he ends the match and a winning team here. sergio aguero to score the second. scoring yet again in this magnificent individual campaign for him. handshakes all around for pellegrini. he will now face the end of season review with the onus here at the club with his still up in the air. southampton will end the season in seventh place. hopes for europa league on the f.a. cup final next weekend. the final -- >> making his way forward here for west ham. for the last 11 weeks newcastle have been a win away from staying up. it didn't come in march. it didn't come in april. but that win finally arrives on the last day of the season.

after one of the worst runs of form in the club's history. it's been main taped for another year. new castle united have got away with it. they have survived. >> absolutely incredible. 11 games ago they were safe with one point, no problem. loss after loss, incredible run. less than sunderland. but newcastle was right in it. really under pressure. when it mattered, last game of the season. whatever they have done this week, banned players from the internet, stopped them going on

social media. stopped them watching football. made them watch wrestling. it worked today. the play er owe the football club, their manager, coach, fans a performance. finally today they have come up with it. they have survived for one more season. >> six years ago new castle united went down and hull stayed up at their expense. six years on. the roles are reversed. newcastle 2. west ham united 0. today was a day when those in

black and white had to stand up and be count. that's something that hasn't always happened in the recent past. it did today. newcastle playerers were able to deliver. ashley clapping his hands. he will be a relieved man. absolutely incredible. everyone is applauding. gutierrez is just coming off the pitch at the poemt to a standing ovation. what a seasoner for him as well. to come back from such a horrendous illness. comes back from that. not sure if he would play football again. scores that vital goal to secure newcastle's future in the premier league. >> of course now they have to make good on mike ashley's promises that he won't awill you it to happen again. there will be continued financial investment over the summer that he'll give the

resources to the new manager to make sure they are not in the same position in 12 months time. the bottom line today was just making sure it was still able to knock it down in the champions league. they fulfilled their part of the bargain. >> all the attention will turn to who will be the next manager. who will be the coaching staff. who will be the players coming in. who's in charge of recruitment. for now, newcastle fans can enjoy the fact -- well, more rerelief than anything else that they have another season for the barclays premier league. >> welcome everybody from whatever game you have been watching this afternoon. these are the scenes at st. james's park on the right-hand side.

newcastle united have saved their skins. they have won 2-0 on the last day against west ham united. gutierrez with a clinching second goal in the second half. hull city needed to win to stand a chance against manchester united. they were terrific today. they missed some chances. victor valdez in the united goal was an inspired form. it ended 0-0. hull city are relegated to the championship after two seasons in the top flight. paul mcshane could have given no more.

jubilation on side with a smattering of protest as well. if you're watching on nbc or nbcsn right now, you don't need to do a thing. we'll stay live for the post match scenes. for those of you on usa, siyfy, msnbc, bravo, e, esquire or oxygen, switch now to nbc for continued live coverage of the final moments as the premier league season draws to a close.
