Crystal Palace have sent a message to Liverpool after their draw with Arsenal moved the Red closer to winning the Premier League title.

Wednesday night saw the Gunners held to a 2-2 draw with Palace at the Emirates Stadium.

The stalemate means that Liverpool need just one more point to be crowned Premier League champions with five matches left to play.

Arsenal had taken the lead in the third minute with a header from Jakub Kiwior before Eberechi Eze equalised for Palace in the first half.

The Gunners responded with a strike from Leandro Trossard before the interval, which put the home side on course for all three points.

Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta then scored in the latter stages of the contest to see the visitors earn a 2-2 draw in North London.

While the draw moved Palace closer to the top 10 spots, it also means that Liverpool are even closer to winning their 20th league crown.

Liverpool only need to draw against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday to be confirmed as Premier League champions, having previously needed a win.

After the game at the Emirates, Palace's X (formerly known as Twitter) account issued a message to Liverpool.

The post featured just three words, which read: "You're welcome Liverpool..."

Liverpool still have to play Palace before the end of the season, with the two teams scheduled to meet at Anfield on May 25 on the final day of the campaign.

It's after this game that the Reds could lift the Premier League trophy in front of an Anfield crowd for the first time, and would also be Virgil van Dijk's second major trophy won as club captain after last season's Carabao Cup triumph.
