Liverpool fall just short but will use title disappointment to drive European success

As Mohamed Salah celebrated his late strike to put Liverpool ahead against Wolves on Sunday, just for a moment he appeared to think it was the Premier League title-winning goal.

His close-range effort put the Reds 2-1 up with six minutes remaining. Had it been scored just a few minutes earlier then Jurgen Klopp's side would have felt they had one hand on the trophy.

With 76 minutes gone over at Etihad Stadium, Manchester City, who needed a win to guarantee the title, were trailing 2-0, with Liverpool fans having relayed news of each goal to the players at Anfield with huge roars of encouragement.
