TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Arsenal concluded the 2025/26 English Premier League season with a 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Sunday night, May 24, 2026. The result served as a sweet ending for The Gunners, who had already secured the league title. Gabriel Jesus and Noni Madueke scored the winning goals for Arsenal, while the hosts replied through Jean-Philippe Mateta towards the end of the match.
Arsenal dominated from the kickoff and continued to press the Palace defense. After missing several early opportunities, Gabriel Jesus finally opened the scoring in the 42nd minute, capitalizing on an assist from Gabriel Martinelli. The away team then doubled their lead early in the second half through a strike from Noni Madueke after receiving a headed assist from Kai Havertz from a corner.
Crystal Palace only managed to narrow the gap in the 89th minute through Mateta's header. However, Arsenal maintained their lead until the final whistle. This victory saw Arsenal conclude the season with 85 points, while Palace finished 15th with 45 points. Arsenal will next face Paris Saint-Germain in the 2025/26 Champions League final.
Pep Guardiola's final match with Manchester City ended bitterly after a 1-2 defeat to Aston Villa in the final week of the 2025/26 English Premier League at the Etihad Stadium. Manchester City initially took the lead through Antoine Semenyo's goal in the 23rd minute. However, Aston Villa staged a comeback in the second half with two goals from Ollie Watkins in the 47th and 61st minutes. Watkins' second goal was initially disallowed but was later given after a VAR review, as Ruben Dias was deemed to have kept the forward onside.
City tried to equalize until the end of the match and managed to score through Phil Foden in injury time. However, the goal was disallowed for offside. This defeat saw City finish as runners-up with 78 points, while Aston Villa ended the season in fourth place, securing a spot in the Champions League next season.
Manchester United wrapped up the 2025/26 English Premier League season with a convincing 3-0 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium. Patrick Dorgu, Bryan Mbeumo, and Bruno Fernandes each scored a goal for the Red Devils.
Brighton initially displayed aggression from the start, but Manchester United took the lead in the 33rd minute through Dorgu's header from a corner by Bruno Fernandes. This assist marked Fernandes' 21st assist of the season, breaking the record for most assists in a single English Premier League season.
United extended their lead just before halftime through Bryan Mbeumo's tap-in after a combination play between Amad Diallo and Mason Mount. In the early stages of the second half, Bruno Fernandes furthered the score to 3-0 with a powerful shot after receiving a pass from Dorgu. This victory secured Manchester United's third-place finish in the final standings with 71 points and guaranteed them a place in the Champions League next season. Brighton ended the season in eighth place and will participate in the Conference League.
Liverpool closed the 2025/26 English Premier League season with a 1-1 draw against Brentford at Anfield. The match also served as the farewell game for Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson with Liverpool. After a goalless first half, Liverpool took the lead in the 58th minute. Mohamed Salah delivered a precise cross which was finished by Curtis Jones. However, Brentford equalized six minutes later through Kevin Schade.
Coach Arne Slot then substituted Salah in the 73rd minute, and the Anfield crowd gave the Egyptian striker a standing ovation. Liverpool almost secured a win in injury time through a chance by Florian Wirtz, but it failed to materialize. This draw saw Liverpool finish in fifth place in the final standings, while Brentford secured ninth place and failed to qualify for European competition.
Chelsea was confirmed to miss out on European competition next season after a 1-2 defeat to Sunderland in the final week of the 2025/26 English Premier League at the Stadium of Light. Sunderland took the lead in the 25th minute through Trai Hume, who capitalized on Luke O'Nien's assist. The hosts then extended their lead early in the second half through an own goal by Malo Gusto while attempting to clear a shot from Brian Brobbey.
Chelsea managed to reduce the deficit through a long-range goal by Cole Palmer in the 56th minute. However, their chances of a comeback became increasingly difficult after Wesley Fofana received a red card in the 62nd minute due to two yellow cards.
Playing with 10 men, Chelsea failed to create meaningful chances until the end of the game. This defeat saw The Blues finish in 10th place with 52 points and miss out on European competition next season.
