LIVERPOOL IS THE PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS

Liverpool won the 2019/2020 Premier League. The club's title was confirmed after Chelsea defeated second placed Manchester City 2-1 on Thursday night. The Merseyside giants needed one victory to seal the league but City's failure to beat Chelsea means they can't are out of the title challenge. It's Liverpool's first ever Premier League victory, and the first time in 30 years that they've won a top division league title. 

As the corona virus pandemic halted the season, Liverpool supporters faced the real possibility that the season could be finished early, with some suggestions that the season would be cancelled altogether. However, this wasn't the case and the Premier League has been able to resume behind closed doors without any fans in the stadiums.

It's a particularly unusual way to win the league because, with all the measures put in place in response to the virus, the Reds will not be able to celebrate their long-awaited success with their supporters immediately. It is tradition for the winning club to do an open top bus parade around the city. This seems unlikely under the current social distancing rules. 

Between 1973 and 1990 Liverpool were one of the most successful English sides of all time, winning 11 league titles. However, it's taken 30 years to add to that total.

This season, Liverpool have broken records left right and centre, and they've won the league with seven games still to play. Their 28 victories in 31 matches is a Premier League record and they're on course to beat Manchester City's record 100-point total for one season. At one stage they led the table by 25 points - a record gap between a side in first and second in English top-division history.

When Jurgen Klopp took over as manager in 2015, Liverpool were in 10th position in the Premier League. In the time since, he has won a Champions League title, a Super Cup, a FIFA Club World Cup and a Premier League title.
