Liverpool celebrated their Premier League title success at Anfield after their game with FA Cup winner Crystal Palace closed the 2024/25 season.
It’s the first time the Reds have been able to lap up a top-flight trophy presentation with their fans for 35 years, having lifted the 2019/20 title under pandemic conditions.
Palace’s FA Cup success against Manchester City was the first major trophy in their history, while Newcastle United won a first domestic honour for 70 years when they beat Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final.
Throw in Tottenham’s Europa League triumph and it’s been a season to cherish for sets of fans who haven’t often had much to shout about.
For better or worse, they get to do it all over again very soon.
