Liverpool came from a goal down to secure a resounding 5-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur, clinching the Premier League title in style during a significant match at Anfield on Sunday.
The team needed just a single point to match the record for a 20th English title, but they found themselves trailing early when Tottenham's Dominic Solanke scored with a header in the 12th minute.
Nevertheless, Liverpool quickly responded, with Luis Diaz netting an equalizer, followed by an impressive long-range strike from Alexis Mac Allister and a goal from Cody Gakpo, all before the halftime whistle.
The second half was dominated by Liverpool, and Mohamed Salah, ending a six-game goal drought, scored with a low shot past Guglielmo Vicario in the 63rd minute. He celebrated his 28th league goal of the season by snapping a selfie with a fan.
Tottenham's day worsened when Destiny Udogie scored an own goal, marking a dismal outing for the visitors, who have now suffered 19 defeats in the Premier League this season.
With 82 points from 34 matches, Liverpool has matched Manchester United's record for English titles, while Arsenal sits far behind in second with 67 points.
Manager Arne Slot expressed gratitude to Jurgen Klopp, acknowledging the foundation laid for his success at the club. "I send my appreciation to Jurgen," the Dutchman said.
"It was clear we couldn't lose this game. Everyone on the bus said, 'There's no way we're going to lose this game,’" he added. "They always find a way to win. [I'm] incredibly proud, not only of the players but the people standing here – sport directors, my staff members – we should give them a big round of applause."
