Liverpool’s campaign seemed to come off the rails after their 2-2 result at Old Trafford last week against Manchester United.
It followed with an absolutely dismal Europa League quarterfinal tie against Atalanta, where they were trounced 3-0 away.
But the result today may very well provide the denouement to their title hopes, as Crystal Palace put in a defensive masterclass to preserve a 1-0 victory.
They will now have to rely on results going against Arsenal and Manchester City as this season winds down.
