Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp reflected on a special night when the club finally lifted the league title after 30 years – made all the better for beating Chelsea 5-3.
His side completed a third successive league season unbeaten at home after taking a first-half lead with goals from Naby Keita, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Georginio Wijnaldum.
Olivier Giroud pulled one back just before the interval but Roberto Firmino’s first Anfield goal of the campaign looked to have put the match beyond Frank Lampard’s side until substitutes Tammy Abraham and Christian Pulisic made a game of it.
“That was my point, but it’s done. In match play, you can get emotional and that was it.”
A draw against Wolves at Stamford Bridge will be enough for Chelsea to secure Champions League football, however.
“We should have a feeling of achievement to this point… not many people expected us to be in the top four race but we have it in our own hands,” Lampard added.
“We are at the Bridge we have a really strong opponent coming in Wolves and it is up to us. I have belief in the players. We have to carry it on for one more game in the league.”
