Liverpool held off a Christian Pulisic-inspired comeback as the runaway Premier League champions defeated Chelsea 5-3 ahead of the trophy presentation at Anfield on Wednesday night. 

Jurgen Klopp’s title winners got into the party spirit as they were involved in an eight-goal thriller on Merseyside in their final home game of an unforgettable season, though there was little sign of the late drama to come when they led 4-1.

Naby Keita’s right-footed rocket opened the scoring, and there was a long-awaited home goal for Roberto Firmino – his first in the league since March 2019 – early in the second half.

Roberto Firmino finally ended his home goal drought in the Premier League as Liverpool saw off Chelsea at Anfield.
