Champions: City's crazy comeback seals title


Sergio Aguero's 94th-minute winner gives Manchester City the Premier League title on football's most dramatic final day.

Sergio Aguero won the Premier League title for Manchester City with a winning strike against 10-man QPR - four minutes into stoppage time at the Etihad Stadium.

City looked set to suffer the most remarkable collapse in Premier League history after falling 2-1 behind to Mark Hughes’s team, when QPR's Djibril Cisse and Jamie Mackie overturned Pablo Zabaleta's first-half strike in between Joey Barton getting sent off.

But Edin Dzeko’s header from David Silva’s 92nd-minute corner, gave the hosts fresh hope, before Sergio Aguero drove home the goal that turned City into champions for the first time since 1968.


City manager Roberto Mancini said: "It was incredible - they deserved this. To win it like this is incredible. I don't think I've ever seen a finale like this.
