Liverpool celebrated their 20th Premier League title in grand style with a convincing win, drawing level with Manchester United's record. The victory was sealed in style as Tottenham Hotspur were thrashed on the day they threatened to spoil the party.
Tottenham briefly gave Liverpool a scare when former Reds striker Dominic Solanke headed them into an early lead. However, the Anfield faithful were sent into raptures when Luis Diaz equalized for Liverpool, turning in Dominic Szoboszlai's pass after the Hungarian's initial effort was deemed offside before the VAR review allowed the goal.

Any doubts were erased when Alexis Mac Allister scored a stunning goal from the edge of the box eight minutes after Luis Diaz's equalizer. The title celebrations gained momentum when Cody Gakpo scored Liverpool's third goal, given time and space to turn and finish inside the box.
The second half saw Liverpool dominate, with Mohamed Salah scoring and later taking a memorable selfie on the field. As Tottenham collapsed, Destiny Udogie scored an own goal under pressure from Salah, sealing the win. The victory allowed Liverpool to celebrate their 20th league title in front of their fans for the first time since 1990.
Liverpool's title win marked a historic moment, with fans celebrating in front of their home crowd for the first time in nearly 35 years, reminiscent of their 1990 title win. This victory was decades in the making, and fans celebrated enthusiastically. Anfield was packed hours before kickoff, with the team coach emerging through plumes of red smoke.
Under Arne Slot's leadership, Liverpool delivered an impressive performance, sweeping aside Tottenham with style. Slot's first season has been remarkable, overseeing a seamless transition and guiding the team to the title with ease. The joy of the day was captured by Mohamed Salah's emotional celebration, taking a prized selfie with fans after scoring the fourth goal. The second half was a buildup to the jubilant celebrations that erupted after the final whistle.
As the final whistle blew, red smoke enveloped Anfield, and Arne Slot's coaching staff gathered in the center circle. The Liverpool players sprinted towards the Kop, celebrating with their fans. Tottenham, like other title challengers this season, couldn't keep pace with Liverpool's dominance.
Tottenham briefly threatened Liverpool's title celebrations, taking the lead through Dominic Solanke's goal, but Luis Diaz quickly equalized. After that, Spurs' performance mirrored their 19 other Premier League defeats this season, allowing Liverpool to dominate.

Manager Ange Postecoglou made notable decisions, starting without Son Heung-min due to injury and keeping key players Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, and Dejan Kulusevski on the bench, likely to prioritize the upcoming Europa League semi-final against Bodo/Glimt.
Liverpool's superior power, intensity, and desire proved too much for Tottenham, who struggled to cope with the Reds' relentless assault. As the visitors faltered, their efforts at damage limitation fell short.
With their season hanging in the balance, Ange Postecoglou faces a tough task lifting his players, especially with questions surrounding his future at the club. The team now turns its focus to salvaging the season with a European trophy.
Confirmed.
