Balotelli’s final day heroics came exactly after 10 years when he came on as a substitute to fire Manchester City to their first Premier League title. He had then produced a vital assist to City legend Sergio Aguero, who had then scored a stoppage time winner against Queens Park Rangers.
Meanwhile, City once again found themselves in a similar situation and had to reduce a 2-0 deficit to earn their sixth Premier League title.
A brace from Ilkay Gundogan and a clinical finish by Rodri from the edge of the box helped City complete a 3-2 win over Aston Villa. Liverpool, who won their match against Wolves 3-1, settled on 92 points, one behind Manchester City.
