May 22, (THEWILL) – Although Liverpool came from behind to beat Wolves 3-1 at Anfield on the last day of the season, Jurgen Klopp’s side was denied the English Premier League title.
It was a sobering end to their fervent pursuit an unprecedented quadruple.
With the fervour still hot, Klopp’s side fell behind to a Pedro Neto goal early on, but Sadio Mane equalised before Mohamed Salah and Andrew Robertson scored late to seal the win.
There was hope among the home fans when Manchester City trailed Aston Villa 2-0 while Wolves were holding Liverpool, but that was quickly extinguished as Pep Guardiola’s City stormed back to win 3-2 and clinch the title.
The Reds may have been dealt a quadruple setback, but they may still win a treble this season when they face Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League final in Paris on Saturday.
