Liverpool Celebrate 20th Premier League Title with 5-1 Thrashing of Tottenham

Liverpool Football Club partied like never before after clinching their 20th English top-flight title, matching Manchester United’s record, with a 5-1 demolition of Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield. In his first season, new manager Arne Slot led the Reds to the Premier League crown with four games to go, sending fans into a frenzy.

The game started with a jolt when Tottenham’s Dominic Solanke headed home after just 12 minutes. But Liverpool hit back hard. Luis Díaz levelled the score after a VAR check, and Alexis Mac Allister fired in a rocket to put the Reds ahead by the 23rd minute. Cody Gakpo’s header from a corner before halftime sealed Tottenham’s fate. In the second half, Mohamed Salah, who’s been unstoppable with 28 league goals this season, added another, and an own goal by Destiny Udogie wrapped up the rout. Anfield erupted as the title was confirmed.

Slot, who took over from Jürgen Klopp last summer, became the first Liverpool boss to win the league in his debut season. “It doesn’t feel real yet,” he grinned. “Seeing the fans’ joy showed me what this means.” Slot’s team lost just once in the league, a 3-2 slip at Fulham, and went 26 matches unbeaten, a testament to his smooth takeover of Klopp’s squad.

Salah, the heart of the team with 45 goal contributions, soaked up the moment, snapping selfies with fans and flashing two fingers for his second Premier League title with Liverpool. Unlike the 2019-20 win behind closed doors, this one was a proper celebration, with a sun-drenched Anfield rocking, flares blazing, and chants echoing. The city’s gearing up for a massive trophy parade on May 26.

Whispers about Trent Alexander-Arnold possibly joining Real Madrid linger, but for now, Liverpool fans are too busy celebrating. Slot and his squad have written a new chapter in the club’s legendary history, and the Kop couldn’t be prouder.
