Bournemouth, Manchester City, Junior Kroupi
19 May 2026
Bournemouth secured European football for the first time after drawing 1-1 with Manchester City at the Vitality Stadium. The result guaranteed at least a Europa League place while keeping a slim Champions League route open.
Junior Kroupi put Bournemouth ahead before Erling Haaland rescued a late point for City. The draw ended City’s title challenge, confirmed Arsenal as champions and left Bournemouth chasing final-day permutations for an even bigger European reward.
