Hello and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE text commentary of the final day Premier League clash between Brighton and Manchester City. After 37 games spread over nine months, it all comes down to this. Pep Guardiola's side are just one victory from retaining their league title and become the first side to do so since Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United in 2009. After a week of enthralling football, who knows what can happen today. We will be keeping a close eye at Anfield where Liverpool are waiting to pounce on any City slip-up. The Reds play host to Wolves, knowing a win could hand them the title, if The Citizens have a wobble at the Amex.

One minute of added time to play at the end of the first half.

Manchester United are a goal down to Cardiff now. As if City's day (so far) couldn't have got any better.
42'
Zinchenko slips through Sterling on the left but his low cross is cleared. Moments later, Mahrez lets fly with a shot from distance but it's caught easily by Ryan.

A view from Anfield...

No one can question the character of this City side. They have shown what champions are made of with this turnaround. But it's far from over. Five minutes to the break.

It seems the best thing that happened to City was conceding that opener. That prompted Guardiola into a change of formation and has resulted in two goals.

SHOT! Twisting and turning, Mahrez creates space for an angled shot, which Ryan saves with his feet. City have a corner now.
34'
Sterling has moved to the left flank with Mahrez on the right. Aguero slides in Bernardo, who cuts back towards Mahrez, but Brighton defence firmly.

Incredible drama on the final day of the Premier League - but what else did you expect? Remember, as it stands, Liverpool currently top the standings. Long, long way to go, however.

SAVE! City nearly turn the tie around in a couple of minutes. There are six City players at the back post to contest Zinchenko's cross but Bernardo heads straight at Ryan.

GOAAALLLLL! Brighton 1-1 Man City: AGUERO LEVELS! FOOTBALL! Dear me. Magnificent from David Silva to let a ball through his legs and the man of the moment Aguero pounces, slotting the ball past a helpless Ryan.

City don't deal with a Bruno long throw-in very well and now they concede a corner...
25'
According to Sky Sports, City's background staff all know the score-line at Anfield, but Pep doesn't. Some visiting supporters have their heads in their hands - already. Tense times.

Much better from City now, as they play through the lines. It's worked to Mahrez on the left, he delivers a cross and Ryan gets a strong hand to it and punches clear.
