Liverpool fans were finally able to witness history unfold at Anfield as their team lifted the Premier League trophy in front of the Kop, ending a 35-year wait to celebrate a top-flight title at home. The emotional moment arrived at 18:24 BST, as a giant red and white clock flicked over in the corner of the stadium. A dominant 5-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur sealed the moment. However, the scoreline was only a detail in the grand narrative.
The real headline? Liverpool are Premier League champions once again—and they have now equalled Manchester United‘s record of 20 English league titles.
The triumph carried deep significance not only for the club’s passionate supporters but also for the legacy of their outgoing and incoming managers. It was a moment made for Anfield, for a city that lives and breathes football. The red smoke, deafening chants, and iconic banners reading “The Most Successful Club In England” made it unmistakable: this was Liverpool’s day.
Long-Awaited Glory at Anfield
This Premier League victory was not like any other in living memory for Liverpool supporters. When Jurgen Klopp brought the Reds the title in 2020, their celebrations were subdued by the coronavirus pandemic. The trophy lift took place within an almost-empty Anfield, and fans had to celebrate from home.
Now, 2025, finally saw Liverpool get to savor their coronation in the best possible manner—on the Anfield pitch in front of tens of thousands of delirious supporters.
The Spurs win was not just a victory; it was the culmination of a belief, perseverance, and change-filled journey. Anfield was charged with anticipation three hours before the kickoff as red smoke, flares, and anthems charged the atmosphere. That all burst forth at the final whistle as fireworks filled the sky and players hugged in celebration with their deafening fans.
Liverpool go level with Man Utd on 20 English top-flight titles.

Arne Slot’s Seamless Transition
Much of the credit for this success goes to head coach Arne Slot. The Dutchman took on the near-impossible task of succeeding Jurgen Klopp, a beloved figure who had transformed the club’s fortunes. Yet Slot made the transition seem effortless.
It had been nearly a full year since Klopp said goodbye to Anfield, famously singing a chant for Slot that echoed around the stadium once again on this historic evening. The fans embraced the new manager, and he delivered in remarkable fashion—guiding the club to their first league title since 2020.
Slot’s calm presence and tactical discipline have brought consistency and confidence back to Liverpool. The players have responded to it. Moreover, the unity between squad and staff was evident as they celebrated shoulder-to-shoulder on the Anfield pitch.
Van Dijk and Relentless Drive of Liverpool
Captain Virgil van Dijk, a towering figure throughout the season, praised the manager for forging a path forward under the weight of immense expectations. “To replace Jurgen is a big job and the manager did it in his own way and deserves a lot of credit,” he noted. “I don’t think anyone from the outside world thought we would be Premier League champions.”
The team’s performances throughout the campaign silenced doubters and proved that Liverpool remain a dominant force in English football. From their unyielding defence to the dynamic attack, the Reds were relentless. The team earned this title through hard work, belief, and exceptional leadership on and off the pitch.
As the smoke cleared and the songs rang louder, Liverpool’s name was once again written into the books of football history. Winning the Premier League title at Anfield, with their fans watching in joy, made the moment even sweeter. The club has not only equalled Manchester United’s record but also reminded the world of their enduring legacy.
