Liverpool Crowned their Effort with a 5-3 Thrashing to Chelsea
Liverpool finally lifted the English Premier League title after 30 years of waiting, the good thing about is that they won it in style they flooded Chelsea with goals to lift the trophy. The thriller happened in the place where they will always tell you “YOU WILL NEVER WALK ALONE” the Anfield Stadium.
Liverpool skipper Jordan Henderson who was not in the game due to injury received the trophy from Liverpool legend Sir Kenny Dalglish on a special podium built on the Kop after Jurgen Klopp’s side made it three full unbeaten Premier League seasons at Anfield. Chelsea, who beat Manchester United in the FA Cup semi-final was hoping to repeat their action and do what Arsenal did to Liverpool but it ended badly for them.
Liverpool went ahead through a nice drive effort from Naby Keita to break the deadlock with a rising 25-yard short, and they added further goals before the breakthrough Trent Alexander-Arnold’s fine free-kick and Gini Wijnaldum’s close-range strike. Olivier Giroud scrambled in for Chelsea on the stroke of half-time but their hopes of a comeback appeared to be snuffed out 10 minutes after the break when Roberto Firmino headed in his first Premier League home goal of the season from Alexander-Arnold’s cross.
Substitute Christian Pulisic was very impressive in the game as he tried to engineer comeback which never came. He made a dramatic impact as he sparked a Chelsea fight back, creating a goal for Tammy Abraham then scoring another himself on the turn as this entertaining game took an unexpected turn.
