Liverpool have again imprinted their authority on English football, claiming their second Premier League title and 20th record-equaling top-flight championship.
Under the supervision of Arne Slot, who guided the Reds to victory during his first season, Liverpool obliterated Tottenham Hotspur 5-1 at Anfield, clinching the title with four games yet to be played.
Arne Slot Leads Liverpool to Historic Premier League Victory
In a season of highs, Sunday's thumping victory over the Spurs was the highlight. Supporters swarmed the roads around Anfield hours early for kick-off, producing an electric atmosphere that motivated the players. After a scare in the 12th minute when Dominic Solanke gave Tottenham an early lead, Liverpool came together to overwhelm the game.
Head coach Arne Slot attributed the fans' phenomenal support to raising the team's spirits following the early disappointment.
"The way we arrived on the bus, everyone was thinking there is no way we were going to lose this game. Conceding first made it difficult, but they always find a way to win," said Slot after the match.
A Title Victory Unprecedented for Liverpool Fans
Unlike their 2019/20 Premier League triumph under Jürgen Klopp, which took place behind closed doors during the COVID-19 pandemic, this victory was celebrated in front of a full Anfield crowd.
When Liverpool lifts the Premier League trophy later this season, it will be the first time the club celebrates the achievement with its passionate supporters.
Star striker Mohamed Salah, who netted 4-1 and went on to pose for a classic selfie with fans, said the experience was twice as sweet as their last title.
"This is 100 percent better than last time, especially with the fans. We have a different group now so to show we can do it again is something special," Salah told Sky Sports.
Liverpool Ties Manchester United's Record of 20 Championships
With the win of their 20th top-flight title, Liverpool has now pulled level with bitter rivals Manchester United at the top of the list of most English championships won in history. This achievement not only solidifies Liverpool's position among England's superclubs but also revives their bitter rivalry with United, who won the league themselves in 2012/13.
Liverpool's recent victory also puts them fifth in the tally of outright Premier League titles, ahead of Arsenal's three.
Mohamed Salah's Record-Breaking Season Drives Liverpool's Success
Salah has been the driving force this season, toppling the Premier League with 28 goals and 18 assists. His direct contribution to 58 percent of Liverpool's goals testifies to his indispensable role.
The 32-year-old forward is now in pursuit of history, becoming the second player to reach 20+ goals and 20+ assists in a single Premier League campaign—a feat only accomplished by Thierry Henry in 2002/03. Also, Salah is chasing his record of 47 goal involvements in a season, shared by Andrew Cole and Alan Shearer.
The Egyptian hopes to break a new record soon.
With Liverpool's dominance far from slowing down, and Salah pursuing personal records, the Reds' future under Arne Slot looks extremely bright.
