6:06PM Emery waited for referee Thomas Bramall and his assistants Edward Smart and Akil Howson just outside the tunnel. He was then spotted in their ear as they disappeared up it. John McGinn had earlier appeared to go over to the officials to challenge them after the final whistle. 

6:05PM Despite earning no clean sheet today, Sels will share the Golden Glove with Raya after Arsenal conceded at Southampton. Little consolation for the result you feel. 

6:04PM City are in the Champions League and De Bruyne is being serenaded by the City end. He’s standing in front of the rest of the squad waving and saying goodbye.

6:03PM The final whistle at St James’ Park is met with a mixture of relief and celebration as Newcastle clinch a place in the Champions League for the second time in three seasons, but boy were they made to work hard for it by an admirable Everton side. The Magpies finish fifth on goal difference – and in addition to winning the Carabao Cup to end a 70-year wait for a major trophy, that rounds off quite a campaign for Eddie Howe’s side. 

6:03PM On the controversial Bayindir/Rogers incident in the 72nd minute, the Premier League had this to say: “The referee’s call was a free kick to Manchester United with Bayindir deemed to be in control of the ball before Rogers gained possession. The whistle was blown by the referee before the ball entered the goal, therefore the incident was not reviewable by the VAR.”

That early whistle could have cost them £100m.

6:02PM And that’s it! The Premier League season comes to an end with United beating Villa 2-0 in hugely controversial circumstances. So it’s sixth place for Villa and seventh for Forest. 

6:00PM It’s all over at the City Ground and Chelsea finish fourth in the Premier League. Forest will surely be finishing in seventh. 

6:00PM It’s full time too at Craven Cottage and City seal a third-placed finish in routine fashion. 

5:59PM It’s all over at St James’ Park and Newcastle have been beaten but they remain in the Champions League spots as it stands. 

5:57PM Full time whistles are being blown in the matches that don’t affect the Champions League spots. Bournemouth, West Ham, Arsenal and Brighton have all won. It ends all square at Anfield and Molineux.
