Chelsea beat Manchester City 2-1 in an exciting clash at Stamford Bridge and Liverpool finally won the league title after 30-years. After playing quality football throughout the season Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool dethroned defending champions Manchester City who won the league in the past two seasons.
Liverpool became Premier League's earliest ever champions with seven games remaining when Chelsea beat Manchester 2-1 courtesy Christian Pulisic and Willian goals.
