Pep Guardiola speaking to Match of the Day about qualifying for the Champions League: “It’s like a title, [because of] the obstacles. When you continue [a run of poor form] you finish 10th, 11th, 12th or 13th.

“This is the destiny of all the teams in the Premier League when they are in November, December or January and you cannot fight for the Premier League, like you have done for many years.

“People can say ‘I don’t want to fight again, just to qualify for the Europa League’. We continued playing good and we were there [in position to seal Champions League qualification] and we did it. At the end we finished third, not miles away from Arsenal, but the distance to Liverpool is huge. We have to improve and hopefully we can do it.”

And that’s full time for the final time this season in the Premier League.

Another season of Champions League football for Manchester City!

Right at the death Ederson is called into action as he claws away Sander Berge’s effort at goal.

Sander Berge comes on for Sasa Lukic.

Kevin De Bruyne and Claudio Echeverri come on for Erling Haaland and Ilkay Gundogan.

Phil Foden comes on to replace Omar Marmoush.

Ryan Sessegnon has impressed since coming on. He beats Josko Gvardiol for pace down the Fulham right hand side and fizzes a ball into the box. Fortunately for City there wasn’t a Fulham player in sight to tap home.

Tom Cairney comes off for youngster Josh King.

Adama Traore comes off for Ryan Sessegnon.

Erling Haaland converts the penalty to double City’s lead and all but confirm Champions League football.

All of Fulham’s efforts look set to be useless as Sasa Lukic foul Gundogan and City have a spot kick.

Raul Jimenez has to do better there!

The Mexican takes down a long ball and Ederson finds himself in no mans land, but he Fulham striker rushes his shot and scuffs it high and wide.

Emile Smith Rowe and Alex Iwobi replace Harry Wilson and Andreas Pereira.

Ilkay Gundogan’s free kick is met by the head of Erling Haaland, who heads wide of the post.

Fulham then immediately race up the pitch but Adama Traore gives away a needless free kick.

Harry WIlson is incensed that Fulham should have a penalty, and most fans in the stadium thought they did, but it was referee Andrew Madley whistling for a goal kick.

Harry Wilson has a golden chance to put Fulham level by Ederson denies the Welshman again!

Andreas Pereira’s follow up shot is also saved by the Brazilian.

A stop in play as Bernd Leno goes down clutching his face.

The German is back on his feet and the game gets going again.

It’s not taken long for Man City to get their first shot of the second half. Gundogan plays through Doku, whose shimmy and shot is blocked by Kenny Tete.

We’re back underway at Craven Cottage!

Second half is about to begin.

And that’s the first half done at Craven Cottage!

City deservedly lead, but Fulham have had opportunities to find back. Unfortunately for Marco Silva’s men they haven’t been taken.
