00:00Trent Alexander-Arnold's match-winning goal against Leicester City has propelled Liverpool to the brink of a second Premier League title in six seasons.
00:11The 26-year-old made his return from injury and scored just five minutes after coming off the bench, helping secure a vital victory at Anfield.
00:20With two games remaining, Liverpool sit 13 points clear at the top and now a win against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday will officially seal the title.
00:28The result capped an emotional return for Alexander-Arnold, who had not featured since Liverpool's Champions League exit to Paris Saint-Germain.
00:40Despite ongoing uncertainty around his contract, which expires this summer, his performance was a reminder of the impact he can still make at the highest level.
00:49While Real Madrid continued to monitor the England international situation closely, his decisive goal has once again highlighted his value to the club, especially in high-pressure moments.
01:03Alexander-Arnold's future remains uncertain, but his contributions this season have underlined his importance in both leadership and quality.
01:11Arne Schlott, in his first season at the helm, now stands on the verge of delivering a league title at the first time of asking.
01:17But the top eight is all of them have incredible players, so it's getting more difficult and more difficult to qualify for the Champions League.
01:26But to be honest, if you were to ask this question to me in the beginning of the season, I would say, oh, nice.
01:32But yesterday it wasn't I opened a bottle of wine because we qualified for the Champions League.
01:37We have now, of course, a bigger aim than only qualifying for the Champions League.
01:40His Liverpool side have shown consistency and resilience throughout the campaign, emerging as the most dominant force in the Premier League.
01:49Despite the team's success, Schlott has identified set pieces for an area of improvement going forward.
01:56Liverpool have only scored six goals from dead ball situations this season, with only the bottom three and Fulham managing fewer.
02:03As Liverpool close in on domestic glory, Schlott is already laying the groundwork to make his side even more complete in the seasons to come.
