And breathe.
Manchester City are top of the Premier League heading into the final day of the season after a hectic 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur that leaves Arsenal needing a miracle next Sunday if they are to get their hands on the title.
Ahead of the game, there had been plenty of calls from fans for Spurs to throw the game intentionally – the sight of Arsenal lifting the title almost too much to bear – and the anti-Arsenal brigade seemed to like what they saw from Ange Postecoglou’s starting lineup.

It became clear almost immediately that Spurs were here to play.
Much to the horror of many watching, Rodrigo Bentancur had the first chance of the game, with Spurs looking lively in midfield and dangerous in the final third.
