Arsenal secured the Premier League title with a 2-1 win at Crystal Palace, sparking jubilant scenes at Selhurst Park.

Pep Guardiola's final match in charge of Manchester City ended in a 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa, but the result did not affect City's second-place finish. Guardiola received an emotional farewell from fans after four trophy-laden seasons.
