Victory at Anfield is not enough to win the title.
Watch official highlights of Liverpool v Newcastle.
Liverpool beat Newcastle United 2-1 in their final Premier League game of the season, but it was not enough to win the title in the end.
The Reds went into their last game of the campaign with a slim hope of winning a first league title since 1990, but they fell behind in the 20th minute when Martin Skrtel sliced Yoan Gouffran’s cross into his own net.
However, carbon-copy goals by Daniel Agger and Daniel Sturridge, both of whom volleyed in Steven Gerrard free-kicks, turned the game around in the space of two minutes in the second half.
Agger’s goal was Liverpool’s 100th in the league and made this the first English top-flight season in which two teams have reached that milestone since 1960-61.
