Liverpool’s month-long wait to lift the Premier League trophy finally came to an end at Anfield, but the Reds could not mark the occasion with a win as Mohamed Salah’s late equaliser rescued a point against Crystal Palace.

Arne Slot’s side confirmed their title four weeks ago to the day as they slammed five past Tottenham, and today the party could finally get underway.

The team bus was welcomed to the ground by a throng of fans covered by a thick cloud of red smoke, and the pitch was strewn with balloons throughout the opening exchanges as a party mood filled Anfield.

The meeting never promised to be a classic, with Liverpool already firmly on the beach and Palace still riding the high of last weekend’s FA Cup triumph - it lived up to its billing.

Once the spectacle of a rare double guard of honour had passed, most in the ground seemed more concerned with the post-match trophy lift than anything else, making for a flat affair.

It was not without its moments, though.

His addition was met with a round of applause from the home support in pleasant contrast to the boos which awaited him upon the initial announcement that he would leave the club.

He was desperate to mark his swansong with a moment worthy of Monday’s back pages, attempting a 25-yard volley at goal shortly before the hour mark, but did not catch it well and missed well wide.

The Dutchman was caught in the press by Daichi Kamada and lashed out clumsily, catching the man and missing the ball entirely as he looked to retake possession.

Salah’s equaliser, a Paolo Di Canio-esque volley, drew him level with the all-time record for most goals and assists in a Premier League campaign, but he could not find the all-important winner to take him clear of Alan Shearer and Andy Cole’s tally.

The Egyptian King will have to make do with the Golden Boot, Playmaker of the Season, and Player of the Year awards.

The party will rage on overnight for Liverpool, with the full-time whistle followed by that long-awaited trophy lift ahead of tomorrow’s planned three-hour bus parade.
