Manchester City lifted the Barclays Premier League trophy for the second
time in three seasons amid jubilant scenes at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday
afternoon.
Goals from Samir Nasri and Vincent Kompany helped City to a routine 2-0
win over West Ham and rendered meaningless Liverpool's 2-1 victory over
Newcastle United at Anfield.
Thousands of City fans streamed on to the pitch at the final whistle to
mob their heroes, with some wielding flares that billowed blue smoke across the
scenes of celebration.
