MAN OF THE MATCH?

Liverpool earn late victory but have to settle for second

Liverpool came from behind to earn a late 3-1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers but missed out on the title by a point.

The Reds had a nightmare start at Anfield, falling behind in the third minute from Pedro Neto's close-range finish.

They equalised in the 24th minute as Thiago’s superb flick released Sadio Mane, who slotted past Jose Sa.

With 15 minutes to go, leaders Man City were losing 2-0 to Aston Villa and Liverpool were a goal away from winning the title.

As the tension grew, Mohamed Salah came off the bench to score at close range in the 84th minute for his 23rd goal of the season, earning a share of the Golden Boot.

Andrew Robertson then put Liverpool out of sight.

But City’s incredible late turnaround to win 3-2 meant Liverpool’s efforts were for nothing as they finished second with 92 points.
