Leicester - Liverpool 0:1

Trent Alexander-Arnold made a triumphant return from injury, scoring a stunning late winner to help Liverpool edge past Leicester City and move within touching distance of the 2024/25 Premier League title.

In the 76th minute, following a chaotic attacking sequence in which the ball ricocheted off both the post and crossbar, the Liverpool vice-captain latched onto the loose ball and unleashed a thunderous strike from the edge of the box — leaving the goalkeeper with no chance.

The 1-0 victory puts Liverpool on the brink of securing the Premier League crown. Should they defeat Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield in the next round, the title will officially return to Merseyside.
