The weekend’s football results as Manchester United return to the UEFA Champions League

Manchester United are going back to the UEFA Champions League next season.

The English premier league played its last games last Sunday, closing the 2019/2020 season. All eyes were on who is going to the Champions League next season in English football joining Liverpool and Manchester City.

Manchester United were happier than most sides as they returned to Europe's top competition after not qualifying last season when they closed their campaign in 6th position. The red devils took 3rd place this year on the English Premier League table with their victory on Sunday evening beating Leicester City 2-0. The three-time winners of the UCL will join Premier League champions Liverpool, their city neighbours Manchester City and Chelsea as they head off to represent the EPL when the UCL begins next season.

Though the Foxes lost to United, they qualified to play in the Europa League next season. Also playing on Sunday was Chelsea who won 2-0 against Wolverhampton Wanderers, Liverpool beat Newcastle United 3-1 and the Citizens cemented their place in the second spot by beating Norwich City 5-0. Crystal Palace drew 1-1 with Jose Mourinho’s Tottenham Hotspur while Mikel Arteta took 3 points with Arsenal after beating Watford 3-0.
