Liverpool still celebrates the English League Cup title, won this Sunday at Wembley, by beating Chelsea on penalties. The ninth title of the competition (EFL Cup or Carabao Cup), had the active presence of Colombian Luis Díaz, outstanding while he was on the field, playing 97 minutes.
The celebrations at Wembley by Jürgen Klopp’s team were measured, as the competition does not stop and new challenges are coming for the ‘reds’.
However, there was a footballer who celebrated excessively. His overflowing joy was captured by the fans at the legendary Wembley Stadium: Kostas Tsimikas.
The Greek defender is one of the best friends Luis Fernando Díaz has made since he arrived at Liverpool. He took him in and has shown him affection. His jovial personality has been a support for the Colombian.
However, this Monday the English press recorded a reprehensible act by Tsimikas in the middle of the Liverpool award ceremony. The ‘Daily Mail’ echoes the complaint of some fans who accuse the Greek of spitting on the lower stands of the stadium, when the squad was in the upper part to receive the champion’s trophy.
The club gave its version, indicating that Tsimikas spit out his chewing gum; However, he did not justify it, rather he reminded the player, who is said to have apologized for the incident, of his responsibilities after the reaction to the images.
