Liverpool won the 2021/2022 Carabao Cup. In the final match, the Reds beat Chelsea on penalties with a score of 11-10!
The Chelsea vs Liverpool match will be held at Wembley Stadium, Sunday (27/2/2022) night WIB. Both teams played to a goalless draw for 90 minutes.
Even in the extra time of 2×15 minutes, no goals were created. There was VAR instead annulling four goals in this match, three for Chelsea and one for Liverpool.
The match had to be settled in a penalty shootout and all the kickers managed to fulfill their duties until the sudden death round. When both goalkeepers had to step up as executioners, Liverpool won after Kepa Arrizabalaga’s shot bounced over the bar.
Liverpool are entitled to a ninth trophy in the Carabao Cup or commonly known as the English League Cup, as well as being their first since winning in the 2011/2012 season.
For Chelsea, this is like repeating the failure three years ago when they were defeated by Manchester City also on penalties.
