Liverpool fans’ PL win celebrations caused series of earth tremors, University scientists reveal

Liverpool fans caused a series of small seismic tremors during their 5-1 Premier League title win against Tottenham at Anfield on 27 April 2025.
The tremors occurred because the 60,415-strong crowd reacted enthusiastically to goals, with the most significant caused by Alexis Mac Allister’s 24th-minute strike.
University of Liverpool scientists installed seismic sensors and recorded multiple ground movements linked to key moments, including Mohamed Salah’s and Destiny Udogie’s own goals.
Mac Allister’s goal registered a 1.74 magnitude on the Richter scale, while Salah’s strike measured 1.60; Dr Farnaz Kamranzad noted these tremors left clear marks despite being too small to feel.
The study demonstrates how fan celebrations can produce measurable seismic activity, offering a unique scientific record of Liverpool’s historic 20th league title.
