Liverpool's Premier League campaign finished in heartbreaking fashion as Jurgen Klopp's side finished behind Manchester City despite beating Wolves 2-0 at Anfield.
The Reds needed a favour from Brighton on the final day to end a 29-year wait for a league title and were given hope when Glenn Murray put the hosts ahead, moments after Sadio Mane had given Liverpool the lead on Merseyside.

However, City fought back to emerge 4-1 victors at the AMEX Stadium and the result meant that Liverpool's result was redundant in the finale, as victory for Pep Guardiola's side guaranteed a second consecutive Premier League title.
Liverpool have plenty to be proud upon following this season and former Everton striker Gary Lineker made that point on Twitter, posting a message following the conclusion of the title race.
"Congratulations to Man City on being the first club to retain the Premier League title for 10 years. A simply magnificent season," he posted on social media.
"Congratulations too to Liverpool. To finish second on 97 points with only one defeat is extraordinary. A simply magnificent season."
Klopp's side will now turn their attention towards the Champions League final against Tottenham Hotspur in Madrid on June 1st.
