Liverpool Clinch 2024–25 Premier League Title With Emphatic Win Over Spurs

Liverpool have been crowned champions of the 2024–25 Premier League season following a dominant 5–1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield.

The Reds secured their 20th top-flight title, drawing level with Manchester United for the most league championships in English football history.

Arne Slot, in his debut season at the helm, has achieved what many thought impossible — replacing the iconic Jürgen Klopp and delivering silverware immediately.

The Dutchman has now matched Klopp’s Premier League title tally, guiding Liverpool to their second league triumph in the modern era.

Spurs Strike First; Liverpool Respond Ruthlessly

Tottenham briefly looked set to delay the celebrations when Dominic Solanke headed home in the 11th minute from a James Maddison corner.

However, Liverpool swiftly restored parity just five minutes later, with Dominik Szoboszlai setting up Luis Díaz for a close-range finish.

Liverpool then seized control. In the 24th minute, Ryan Gravenberch dispossessed a Spurs defender in the box and laid the ball off to Alexis Mac Allister, who rifled it into the top corner.

The hosts carried their lead into half-time, with momentum firmly in their favour.

The Reds Run Riot In The Second Half

Cody Gakpo extended Liverpool’s lead shortly after the interval, calmly slotting home after a loose ball from a corner fell kindly in the box.

Not long after, Mohamed Salah joined the scoresheet, marking his 28th goal of the season with a clinical finish that underlined his continued brilliance.

Tottenham’s misery grew late in the game when Destiny Udogie accidentally diverted a Trent Alexander-Arnold cross into his own net, sealing a five-star display for the champions.

Champions In Style

Liverpool claimed the title in just 34 matches, racking up 82 points from 25 wins, seven draws, and only two defeats.

Their consistent dominance has left them 15 points clear of second-placed Arsenal, who appear destined to finish runners-up for a third consecutive season.
