Inside Man City title celebrations as Pep Guardiola and his team hit the town

One of the criticisms aimed at Manchester City this season was that they were too serious. A joyless winning machine with no room for drama or excitement.

City rubbished that argument on Sunday with a remarkable 3-2 final day win against Aston Villa, scoring three goals in five second-half minutes to overcome a two-goal deficit and clinch the Premier League title.

After former Liverpool star Philippe Coutinho had put Villa 2-0 up with a little over 20 minutes to go, City's title hopes lay in tatters. The Blues knew a win would guarantee the title, but somehow they had conspired to mess it up.

But we should know by now that City never, ever give up. Ilkay Gundogan headed home a superb Raheem Sterling cross to half the deficit, and before the celebrations had had chance to die down, Rodri slotted home from the edge of the box to draw City level.

From that moment there was only ever going to be one winner, and three minutes later Gundogan sparked wild celebrations when he tapped home Kevin De Bruyne's teasing cross.

Winning the title - City's fourth in five years - in such a dramatic fashion called for some serious celebrations, and City's stars were only too happy to oblige.

The first team staff, coaches and players enjoyed a night out at The Ivy in Manchester on Sunday night, with the club booking out the entire roof terrace of the high-end Spinningfields bar.

The celebrations lasted until past 3am on Monday morning, with family and partners accompanying the players and posing for photos as they arrived.
