Sir Alex Ferguson was awarded with Knighthood after he guided Manchester United to a historic treble; the first and only English side to ever do so. The goal that enabled the treble came off the foot of none other than Ole Gunnar Soslkjaer himself.
The player has since succeeded his former boss and is hoping to take the side back to where they were during his playing days.
With this loss, Manchester City are now 14 points away from Liverpool. A hat-trick oi Premier League titles is now starting to look like a distant possibility now.
