Liverpool's three military lives, Mbappe is dissatisfied, Lautaro scores!
On this night, European football can be described as turbulent, and the big teams are either sad or happy, sad or happy. Liverpool and Chelsea once again wore red shirts for the Carabao Cup. This is the third Carabao Cup final between the two teams in recent years, with Liverpool winning the previous two times. Liverpool have more injured players, half of their eleven starters are involved in the game, and they still have the initiative in the game. Raheem Sterling's goal, Virgil van Dijk's goal was sent off, Grafenberg was also off injured, and Liverpool's injury squad was extended.
Liverpool's youngsters were even better in extra-time when Elliott almost slotted the ball into the back of the net with a single kick. On 117 minutes, Van Dijk received a corner kick from Tsimikas and headed the ball into the back of the net. This time, there was no mistake in the VAR decision, and Liverpool won the title as a result. In Zhan Jun's words, Liverpool's treble is like a bunch of kids beating Chelsea's billionaires, and in the 2024 season, Liverpool won the League Cup.
In his ninth season in charge of Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp has already led the Reds to his eighth title. Liverpool are still looking to win the league, FA Cup and Europa League, and they can add some new trophies at the end of the season. With Henderson's departure, Van Dijk became Liverpool's first title winner and was awarded the Man of the Match for his goal in this game.
Chelsea have been hit another side, with all their main players out but still failing to pick up the only trophy they have any hope of winning this season. Mauricio Pochettino's side were the subject of controversy before the tournament began, with reports suggesting that his coaching position had nothing to do with him winning the title, with his side now 10th and a push into Europe as their only goal. Chelsea owner Todd Boehly, who was also present at the time, was clearly unhappy with the result and worried that he might have to open his own cheque next summer.
Then it was Kylian Mbappe who led the luxurious squad in Paris against Rennes. The Parisian strikers were broken up in this game and Mbappe was also unable to get a chance to play. Ramos was replaced by Ramos in the 65th minute, and his face did not look very happy. Mbappe has hardly ever been substituted in a game before, and as long as he is not affected by injury, he can play almost the entire game. Mbappe has announced his departure and the possibility of joining Real Madrid, but he still can't agree on some terms, which makes him feel a little low. With the help of Ramos' penalty, Paris continued their unbeaten run of 18 games.
Inter swept past Lecce 4-0 thanks to two goals from Lautaro and goals from Frattesi and De Vrij. Lautaro scored his first Serie A goal for the first time and his 100th Serie A goal. Lautaro has scored 25 goals in 33 appearances and tops the Serie A scorers chart with 22 goals and four assists. Lautaro is undoubtedly the first man in Serie A. He is one of the best in Serie A. Inter must keep him, even though they have to do something.
