With the competition in the race to finish in the top five in the Premier League table and Southampton being an easy opponent for Manchester City, I believed Manchester City would easily beat Southampton at St. Mary's Stadium, but Manchester City failed to even score a goal against Southampton at St. Mary's Stadium, which allowed Southampton to hold Manchester City to a goalless draw. I know the result between Southampton and Manchester City is surprising, but it doesn't call for an investigation because this is football, and sometimes unexpected results do happen.

The draw was indeed a bit surprising for many people because the team that Manchester City faced was the bottom team in the Premier League standings this season. But that also will not give Manchester City more threats to be shifted outside the UCL zone because for this season there are five places provided to qualify for the UCL next season. So Manchester City certainly still has a chance to qualify for the competition because in today's match Newcastle and Chelsea will both try to win so that Manchester City can be saved in the UCL zone.

Honestly, I was also surprised by the draw between Southampton and Manchester City, but if you think about it, a draw is certainly not a strange thing in the world of football where a team that will be relegated sometimes always makes it difficult for a strong team to beat it.

But it is true that Manchester City has the potential to still be able to get a ticket to the UCL because considering the 5 places available for EPL teams as long as Manchester City can win the remaining matches, but in my opinion if Manchester City cannot finish the remaining matches well, it is certainly not impossible that Manchester City will not be able to participate in the UCL next season. Of course, now Pep needs to fix Manchester City well because of course it is very unfortunate if Manchester City cannot finish the match well.

Currently Chelsea vs Newcastle are playing and of course Newcastle is now leading by 1 goal, so let's see if Chelsea can reply to Newcastle's goal or not, but it seems difficult for Chelsea to turn things around because time is running out.
