First time for coach Arne Slot, 20th time for Liverpool
Liverpool were crowned champions of the 2024-2025 Premier League season in a very convincing manner. The "Reds" only needed 1 point, but they played with great effort to come back to defeat tough opponents Tottenham as a very meaningful gift for the fans who packed Anfield.

Solanke surprisingly opened the scoring for Tottenham in the 12th minute. But immediately after that, Diaz, Mac Allister and Gakpo scored consecutively to help Liverpool lead 3-1 after the first half ended. In the second half, it was Salah's turn to score and Udogie's own goal, contributing to Liverpool's magnificent victory with a score of 5-1 to officially win the championship.
This is the first time that Dutch coach Arne Slot has won the Premier League. More importantly, this is also the first season that this coach has worked in England and won the championship right away.
Coach Arne Slot was once doubted after replacing coach Jurgen Klopp to lead Liverpool. However, by working hard and effectively, the 46-year-old Dutch coach revived a Liverpool that had been somewhat downhill last season, playing consistently and very firmly to always lead almost the entire Premier League season and convincingly won the championship.
This season's Premier League title means a lot to Liverpool, as they have won the title with their fans by their side. This is also their 20th title in history, equaling the record of their arch-rivals MU.

However, on the official coronation day, they could not receive the championship trophy due to Premier League regulations. Accordingly, the championship trophy is only awarded to the team that is crowned early after the last home match of the season.
Therefore, Liverpool will have to wait nearly a month to lift the championship trophy, that is after the match against Crystal Palace on May 25 at Anfield. This is also the last match of the season. In the remaining 4 matches, Liverpool will meet Chelsea (away), Arsenal (home), Brighton (away) and finally Crystal Palace at home.

The only exception is the Premier League trophy being awarded away from home, if the winner is decided on the final matchday and the winner plays away from home.
Meanwhile, Man City coach Pep Guardiola congratulated Liverpool on winning the championship, officially usurping the throne from "Man City" after the historic record of winning the championship for 4 consecutive seasons before.
Man City are still in the race for a top five spot in the Champions League next season. Pep Guardiola's team was consoled by a 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest to reach the FA Cup final against Crystal Palace (who beat Aston Villa 3-0) on May 17, in search of the title this season.
