More than likely you missed getting the tab back in the right spot which is located directly above the key hole or directly under the label inside the trunk which says 20 lbs limit. When putting that long piece of panel back on folks sometimes miss getting the tab back into the slot. this will cause the trunk lid to not close. If it is not that then I don't know.

Exact same thing happened to me. It was the tab, and it's not readily visible. Unfortunately, getting back into its proper place will require some disassembly.

Easy fix
Loosen the 4 bolts. Press hard in the center, it will pop in. Press on the black; the tab is on the painted part, and goes into the black part. Call me if you get stuck! Joe
