Liverpool, winner of Crystal Palace (2-0) and Chelsea, despite their defeat (2-1) at Aston Villa on Sunday, finished 3rd and 4th in the Premier League, at the end of the 38th and final day and qualify for the League champions.
The Reds snatched the last place on the podium in extremis after a cannonball end of the championship, with 26 points taken out of 30 possible in the last 10 days.

Just behind them, Thomas Tuchel’s men, who will play in the Champions League final in six days against the champion, Manchester City, in Porto, were very scared by missing their match in Birmingham.

But they were saved by Leicester, who completely cracked at home against Tottenham (2-4) after leading twice in the score.

The Foxes, who miss the C1 at the very end of the championship for the second year in a row, have something to blame themselves for, even if they won the FA Cup this season, precisely against the Blues (1-0) .
Leicester will return to the contested Europa League this season, accompanied by West Ham who secured their 6th place by beating Southampton 3-0.
By winning at the King Power Stadium, the Spurs kept their 7th place and are transferred to the new Europa Conference League, to the detriment of Arsenal who chained 5 wins in a row to end the 2020/2021 exercise on a note of ‘hope.
Unfortunately for them, the Gunners will not play Europe for the first time since 1995/1996, for a small point.
