Leicester City have been relegated from the English Premier League seven years after the sensational championship. The Foxes won 2-1 (1-0) against West Ham United in the season finale - but since Everton FC also won, the 2016 champion has to go into the Championship. The Toffees, on the other hand, prevented relegation from the elite league for the first time with a 1-0 (0-0) win against AFC Bournemouth. 30 years ago, Everton was one of the founding members. Abdoulaye Doucoure scored the much-acclaimed goal at Goodison Park (57th).

In addition to Leicester, Leeds United with international Robin Koch were also relegated. The "Whites" lost their last game of the season 1:4 (0:1) against Tottenham Hotspur. England's star striker Harry Kane (2nd/69th), Pedro Porro (47th) and Lucas Moura (90th+5) scored the farewell goals for the north Londoners, the follow-up goal by Jack Harrison (67th) was not enough for Leeds. Koch was in the starting line-up as usual. Tottenham missed out on the European Cup after a disappointing season despite success in eighth place, as Aston Villa defended seventh place against Brighton and Hove Albion with a 2-1 (2-1).

Chelsea finish the season in twelfth place

Jürgen Klopp and Liverpool FC won 4-4 (2-2) in a wild game at the previously relegated team from Southampton. The fifth place for the Reds was already clear before the game, so team manager Klopp misses the Champions League for the first time since his first season in Liverpool (2015/16).

Champions Manchester City lost their 1000th Premier League game in the club's history 0-1 (0-0) at Brentford FC. Before the finals in the FA Cup and the Champions League, team manager Pep Guardiola sent only a B-XI on the pitch. Chelsea FC led by national player Kai Havertz ended the messed-up season in twelfth place after a 1-1 draw (1-1) against fourth-placed Newcastle United.

In Leicester, homegrown Harvey Barnes (34') and Wout Faes (62') scored for the hosts. Pablo Fornals (79th) shortened for the "Hammers". After the final whistle, tears flowed at the Foxes around striker Jamie Vardy.
