Liverpool 5-3 Chelsea:Reds celebrate title success with five star performance against Chelsea.

-
Liverpool held on against a second half inspired Blues team as they waited for their Premier League trophy to be presented to them.

Liverpool took the lead through Naby Keita right footed shot, and there was a goal for Roberto Firmino at Anfield, his first at home in the league since March 2019.

The ever improving Christian Pulisic inspired Chelsea as they came back from 4-1 to make the match 4-3, before Alex Oxlade Chamberlain rounded off the scoring from a quick Liverpool counter attack.

The first goal was scored by Naby Keita,before Alexander Arnold scored a wonderful free kick from the edge of the box, then Georginio Wijnaldum made it 3-0 with a goal from a corner, as Chelsea failed to clear their lines.

But Chelsea pulled one back through in form striker Olivier Giroud,but after the testart Firmino scored a brilliant header from a tantalising Alexander Arnold cross.

But following the introduction of Christian  Pulisic, the game tides turned as the American swivelled through some Reds players before setting up fellow substitute, Tammy Abraham and he added his name on to the score sheet after he controlled a ball in from the right and fired it into the top right hand corner.

But another sub in the match, Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain ended Chelsea's hopes of a comeback as he scored after a swift counter attack, from an Andy Robertson cross.

What's next?

Liverpool next travel away to face Newcastle at St James Park,while Chelsea play their last home match of the season against Wolves knowing that a draw would be enough to send them to the Champions League next season.

Chelsea have confirmed that they will play in Champions League next season as goals from Mason Mount and Olivier Giroud sealed a 2-0 win on the final day of the Premier League season. Although the Blues had a sluggish start to the game, but two goals in first half stoppage time. First, through a brilliant Mason Mount free kick, before Giroud doubled the lead a short while later. Although the first half of the match was highly devoid of action until a wonderful Mason Mount free kick goal. While, Christian Pulisic and Mason Mount combined to set up Giroud, before he rounded Rui Patricio and held off Conor Coady before scoring into an empty net. Diogo Jota brought out a save from Willy Caballero just before the hour. But the Blues were hardly troubled as they held on to 4th position in the league in Lampard's first season in charge.

Danny Ings scored his 21st Premier League goal of the season as Southampton defeated Bournemouth 2-0 at the Vitality Stadium.  Ings scored with a good finish in tge 41st minute as he put glitters to sweeping Saints counter attack.  He had a chance to double his side's lead, but he sent a tame shot that was saved by Aaron Ramsdale, after Harry Wilson handled in the box. Bournemouth thought they had equalised through Sam Surridge, only for VAR to judge that Callum Wilson was in an offside position whilst also interfering with play, before Substitute Che Adams hit the final nail in the coffin to almost certainly dash Bournemouth's hopes of staying up. Eddie Howe's men are three points from safety with a trip to Everton still to come. Survival on goal difference is the best they can hope for, as 17th placed Watford will condemn the Cherries to the 2nd division for next season, if and only if they can claim a point from one of their last two games with matches agains...
