It was a memorable day for both Manchester United and Manchester City as (spookily in the 74th and 73rd minute) the Premier League (United)and FA Cup (City) were apprehended today.
For Manchester United, Wayne Rooney's second half goal-by-penalty against Blackburn levelled them at 1-1 after trailing behind the majority of the match; the point was enough to ensure that United's points accumulation could not be caught by the other clubs this season. The Red Devils have now officially beaten long-time rivals Liverpool FC to their 19th Premier League title AND have won more titles than any English club.
Later in the day, Yara Toure's second half goal against Stoke was enough to finish the match at 1-0 and give Manchester City their first title since 1976! City are double happy this week after finding out that the 1-0 win over Tottenham keeps them in the top 4 of the Premier League and ready for the UEFA Champions League next year!
Fingers crossed Manchester United will also win their third UEFA Championship this year for they will be playing Spanish giants Barcelona on May 28th in Wembley-a rematch of the 2009 final in which United lost 2-0!
