That means West Ham gets a Europa League group stage ticket next season and for the first time appear in the final round of European competition since they last experienced it in the 2006/07 season.

West Ham also featured in the 2015/16 and 2016/17 Europa Leagues, but in those two seasons they ended up in the qualifying phase without ever taking part in the final.

West Ham's victory broke the hearts of Tottenham Hotspur's players who were able to claim a 4-2 win at home to Leicester City.

Tottenham had to settle for seventh place and only won the conference qualifying playoff, UEFA's third-tier competition that starts rolling next season.

However, at the same time, Tottenham also insisted Leicester should be willing to "only" appear in the Europa League because they finished fifth.

The composition of the top four of the final standings has not changed significantly compared to before the game of the week, but Liverpool and Chelsea ended up swapping places.

Liverpool finished third after a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace at Anfield, overtaking Chelsea who closed out the season with a 1-2 defeat on a visit to Aston Villa's headquarters.

Nevertheless, Liverpool and Chelsea will remain in the Champions League alongside English champions Manchester City and city rivals Manchester United.

City closed out its season with a 5-0 win over Everton at the Etihad before lifting the Premier League trophy in front of 10,000 of its supporters who were allowed into the stadium.

Leeds United's record of 3-1 win over West Bromwich Albion at Elland Road is the highest in Premier League history with 62 goals and the most points scored in the last two decades at 59.

The record-breaking record also made in Newcastle United's 2-0 win at home to Fulham. Joe Willock equaled Alan Shearer's record as the second player to score seven consecutive games, while Fulham became the first team in the Premier League era to fail to reach 10 goals in a home game a season.
