"I am completely overwhelmed; I don’t know, it’s a mix of everything – I am relieved, I am happy, I am proud, I couldn’t be more proud of the boys," Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp told the club official website.

Liverpool players gathered on Thursday night to watch the game together and the celebrations erupted following the referee's whistle that declared Liverpool champions.

Klopp added "When we counted down the last five seconds of the game, the ref counted down a little bit longer than us so we had to look at two or three more passes!. Then it was pure. I cannot describe it. It was a really, really nice moment."
