Goal-crazy Premier League final days including Liverpool, Man Utd, Spurs and Stoke!
The final Sunday of the Premier League season doesn’t always provide thrills and spills, with many of the major issues often settled long before fixture 38. However, what it does guarantee is goals.
Before 2017 you had to go back to 2004 before Man City had previously hit five on the final day, with that coming in a 5-1 demolition of Everton.
Liverpool 6 Tottenham 2 (May 7, 1993)
The very first Premier League season did not benefit from a Super Sunday final day and rather fizzled out.
Nine fixtures took place on the final Saturday and two games were played on the Sunday, with Manchester United, who were already crowned champions, involved in one. Arsenal then took on Tottenham the following Tuesday, with the north London derby bringing the curtain down on the season along with QPR against Sheffield Wednesday.
