Pep Guardiola hailed Manchester City's "legends" as they won the Premier League for the fourth time in five seasons after staging an incredible comeback from two goals down to beat Aston Villa 3-2 on Sunday.

Guardiola's side was threatened to lose the race for the Premier League title to rivals Liverpool after falling 2-0 behind midway through the second half of the decisive match.

But Ilkay Gundogan sparked an astonishing City revival at the Etihad Stadium as the German midfielder reduced the gap before Rodri grabbed the equalizer.

Gundogan scored City's third goal in the 81st minute, triggering wild celebrations and deeming second-placed Liverpool's 3-1 victory over Wolves ineffective.

🤯 جنــــــــون 🤯
