Liverpool end victorious season with 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace

LIVERPOOL, England, May 25 (Reuters) - Liverpool signed off their Premier League title-winning season on Sunday with a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace, as Mohamed Salah's late equaliser cancelled out Ismaila Sarr's opener at a jubilant Anfield.

With the league wrapped up with four games to spare, Sunday's match was played in a celebratory atmosphere and Palace fans – still on a high from last weekend's FA Cup final triumph – joined in with an early chant of "champions".

"It's always special to win something, but at certain clubs maybe a little bit more," Liverpool boss Arne Slot said.

"I experienced this at Feyenoord where the fans are so passionate, and it's the same and more over here."

Sarr slotted home in the ninth minute after he was found in acres of space by Tyrick Mitchell, who had intercepted a loose pass from Conor Bradley, but conceding barely made a dent in the party.

Liverpool slowly played their way into the game and Luis Diaz went close three times in quick succession, shooting narrowly wide, then heading over the bar before he was denied by a good save by Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson.
