Seven Trophies

Alice, Bob, and Charlie participated in a sports tournament. Each won at least 1 trophy. They gave the following statements:

Alice: Bob won more trophies than Charlie.
Bob: Charlie won more trophies than Alice.
Charlie: I love sports!

A truth-telling observer noted that only those who won more than 1 trophy told the truth. He also noted that the three participants won a total of 7 trophies.

Can you deduce who is the liar? Or did they all tell the truth? How many trophies did each of them win?

Update: Check out the solution here.
