On a dramatic final day of the Premier League, Manchester City, Chelsea, Newcastle United secured their spots in next season's Champions League.
Final-day defeats for Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest will see them play in the Europa League and Conference League next season respectively.
City went into their clash with Fulham needing just a point to secure Champions League qualification, and Ilkay Gndogan's sensational overhead kick settled any lingering fears of a first season without Champions League since 2009. Erling Haaland's late penalty saw them lockdown third spot in style.
Enzo Maresca secured Champions League qualification in his first season in charge at Chelsea after a 1-0 win over fellow-contenders Nottingham Forest. It was a disappointing end to a dream campaign for Forest, who spent a majority of the season in Champions League places. A seventh-place finish sees them qualify for next years's Conference League.
The final Champions League spot was secured by Newcastle, who returned to Europe's elite despite a home loss to Everton courtesy of Aston Villa's 2-0 loss at Manchester United. The result means Unai Emery's side will be playing in the Europa League next season.
