Jack Grealish double narrowly foiled as horse named after Man City star comes up short

A Jack Grealish-inspired double was just foiled amid the celebrations of Manchester City's stunning Premier League win.

City overhauled Aston Villa from 2-0 down to scoop their fourth title in just five years, under the guidance of Pep Guardiola. Ilkay Gundogan found the net twice after coming off the bench, adding to a top notch strike from Rodri which sent fans wild with delight.

And as the crowd cheered the final result, a topically-named horse was being prepared for a race at York.
