But Roberto Firmino’s goal in extra-time gave Liverpool the trophy at the fourth attempt of asking.

Things are going very well for Liverpool this season as they currently have an eleven-point lead at the top of the Premier League.

And while winning the Club World Cup or Super Cup back in August will not compare to the prospect of winning a first ever Premier League crown, the Reds will be sure to celebrate being victorious once more.

Below you can see the best pictures and videos of how Liverpool’s win over Flamengo unfolded and the celebrations after the final whistle went.
