Liverpool has been crowned Premier League champions after a resounding 5-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday, marking their 20th domestic league title and drawing level with Manchester United as England’s most successful top-flight club.

The result came just days after Arsenal’s 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace, which left Liverpool just one point from glory. Tottenham briefly stunned the home crowd with an early goal from Dominic Solanke, but Luis Díaz equalized minutes later to swing momentum in the Reds’ favor.

Goals from Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah, and an own goal from Destiny Udogie sealed the title in emphatic fashion. The atmosphere at Anfield turned electric as fans celebrated a long-awaited league triumph on home turf — a luxury they were denied during the 2020 title win due to Covid-19 restrictions.

A Historic Milestone

This title is Liverpool’s first under new manager Arne Slot, who took over from Jürgen Klopp last summer. Slot becomes the first Dutch manager to win the Premier League and defied preseason expectations that placed Liverpool behind Manchester City and Arsenal in the title race.

“When the season started, everyone would’ve been happy with top four. But our players are much better than that — and they showed it,” Slot said post-match.

Slot stepped into the enormous shoes left by Klopp, who delivered a Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, and more during his legendary tenure. Yet the transition has been seamless, with Salah leading the league in goals and assists, and Virgil van Dijk providing rock-solid leadership at the back.

Salah: “This one means more”

For Mohamed Salah, the title win in 2025 means more than the 2020 triumph. “We did it with the fans this time,” he said, beaming. The Egyptian’s relentless form has been a key factor in Liverpool staying atop the table since November — a position they never looked likely to relinquish.
