Solskjaer hurt over Liverpool triumph

Juergen Klopp's Liverpool secured the Premier League crown after second-placed Manchester City lost 2-1 at Chelsea Thursday, meaning the Merseyside club could not be caught with a 23-point lead over City with seven games remaining

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has congratulated rival Liverpool on clinching their first league title in 30 years but conceded it always hurts to see someone else lift the trophy.

Juergen Klopp's Liverpool secured the Premier League crown after second-placed Manchester City lost 2-1 at Chelsea Thursday, meaning the Merseyside club could not be caught with a 23-point lead over City with seven games remaining.

Liverpool have an opportunity to begin a new spell of dominance like they enjoyed in the 1970s and 1980s.

More recently, United under former manager Sir Alex Ferguson collected 13 league titles in 20 years between 1993 and 2013, but Solskjaer believes it will be difficult for Klopp's side to emulate that sustained success at Anfield.

United face Norwich City in Saturday's FA Cup quarter-final and Solskjaer said winning the competition could spur them on for further success in the future.
