Liverpool's historic Premier League title win in pictures
All the incredible moments from both inside and outside Anfield, as Liverpool confirm their 20th top flight title
Last updated 28th Apr 2025
Liverpool fans celebrated long into the night outside Anfield on Sunday, after confirming an historic 20th Premier League title win.
They thrashed Spurs 5-1, with fans witnessing a first title win at the ground in 35 years.
The 2020 success under Jurgen Klopp came in the sterile confines of Covid restrictions and, even then, confirmation came when Manchester City lost at Chelsea to hand it to them on a plate.
At the final whistle, Alisson Becker and Mohamed Salah were among those who fell to the turf. Boss Arne Slot allowed himself a congratulatory hug with his backroom staff.
The players danced wildly in front of the Kop as fireworks exploded in the streets behind it before lining up arm-in-arm for a rendition of 'You'll Never Walk Alone'.

The usually-reserved Slot followed that with four Klopp-like fist pumps.
This was delayed gratification, not only from five years ago but from the last few weeks when it became apparent it was a question of when, not if, Slot would become the first Dutch coach to win the Premier League and only the fifth manager to achieve it in his debut season.
He is not the first to do it in his first season as Liverpool manager, however, as Joe Fagan (1983-84) and Sir Kenny Dalglish (1985-86) had gone before.
At the start of the season Liverpool were given just a 5.6 per cent chance of being champions by Opta, but this was no Leicester-style against-the-odds title win.
Slot's side have consistently been the best team as they have been at the top of the table every day since November 2.
Liverpool's coach emerged through a billowing cloud of red smoke onto the apron of the stadium, cheered on by thousands - some who had match tickets and many more who just wanted to be here to experience the history.
Slot said: ""We still had to do it but I think everybody who was inside that bus felt if the fans are with us like they are, then it's impossible for us to lose this game of football.
"It's special. Special to be part of this day and, to do this in front of our fans, it's special for everyone."
The celebrations continued outside Anfield after the game, with thousands in the street singing and waving red flares amid fireworks being set off.
Liverpool, who have lost just twice in the league this season, have led the table since November.
Arne Slot celebrates Liverpool's title win
Slot said: "I think we felt it was possible for quite a long period but we know how hard it is to win a game of football in this league.
"Then you need to have consistency, and that's difficult - but we had that. If you have a margin like we have, I think it's fair to say that we deserve to win this league."
Captain Virgil Van Dijk agreed with those sentiments.
The Dutch defender said: "It's been an amazing Premier League season for us - very consistent, well-deserved winners.
"The reaction that we showed after going 1-0 down was outstanding. The time went very slowly towards the end but I'm glad we got the job done."
Spurs briefly threatened to spoil Liverpool's party as they took an early lead through former Reds striker Dominic Solanke.
But the hosts roared back in style with goals from Luis Diaz, Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah before Destiny Udogie turned the ball into his own net.
