Man City, Chelsea and Newcastle secure CL spots

Agency :

Manchester City and Chelsea both secured their Champions League (CL) places with victories on the final day of the Premier League season and Newcastle United joined them despite stumbling to a defeat at home to Everton on Sunday.

Outgoing champions City, whose season has been one to forget, only really required a draw at Fulham but cruised to a 2-0 victory which meant they finished in third place.

Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea, who began the day in fifth place – the last spot for Champions League qualification – won 1-0 at seventh-placed Nottingham Forest to finish fourth.
