After waiting 30 years to return to the top of English football,Liverpool held their long awaited celebration on Wednesday as the Reds finally raised the Premier League Trophy.
Naby Keita, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Georginio Wijnaldim all fired first-half goals before Roberton Firmino and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain added finishes of their own in the second half.
But the day’s best moments came after the final whistle, when captain Jordan Henderson, who missed the match due to injury, finally got his hands on the Premier League trophy.
The Stadium was empty and only players,coaches and families were present inside the stadium to celebrate the moment with the massive fireworks exploded over the kop to commemorate the ocassion after a thrilling 5-3victory over chelsea in their last home game of yhe season.
“If you don’t see that we do it for you I can’t help you”, klopp said when asked for his message to the fans.
“You made us happy, we all should celebrate at home. Prepare for a party and when this virus has gone we will have a party.”
Liverpool chief executive Peter Moore said the players and fans will “come together to celebrate” when the time is right.
“It’s been an amazing season,” Henderson told former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher at pitchside.
“It’s been a journey, a process, and every single player has been part of it.”
A trophy presentation without fans was always going to feel a little flat, although the real fireworks have been provided over a grateful season by a superb Liverpool side.
Liverpool missed out by a point last year to Manchester City despite losing only one game.
Although they won the Champions League title last June, the English crown is what the red half of Merseyside has craved for three decades.
