Mohamed Salah played his final game at Anfield on Sunday as Liverpool and Brentford drew 1-1 in a Premier League finale charged with emotion — a result that denied the Bees a historic first European qualification.

Salah, in what is expected to be his last appearance for the club, turned provider rather than scorer, teeing up Curtis Jones to give Liverpool the lead. However, Kevin Schade quickly levelled for Brentford, and the score remained locked at 1-1 to the end.

So close for Brentford

Keith Andrews' side came agonisingly close to snatching a winner that would have written their name into club history. Dango Ouattara headed over deep in stoppage time — a miss that ultimately cost Brentford their chance of a first-ever European campaign.

They finished ninth in the final Premier League standings, falling just short of the continental dream. The moment will linger for their supporters throughout the summer.

Liverpool farewells as Slot's rebuild looms

Alongside Salah, Andy Robertson also bid farewell to Anfield on the day, with supporters inside the ground paying tribute to both departing figures. The pair have been central to Liverpool's most successful era in recent memory.

Manager Arne Slot's side finish the season in fifth place, meaning they missed out on Champions League football. The club now faces the significant challenge of rebuilding without one of the most influential players in their history.

For Salah, the afternoon offered a final curtain call before a packed Anfield crowd — an ending full of warmth, even if the result itself was unremarkable. For Liverpool, the real work begins this summer.
