Amazing outcome for Klopp and Liverpool. So many injuries we had to play a bunch of kids but we still found a way to win. What a club, no other team with this many injuries wins that game today.
Van Dijk is back to his best, what a legend. This will give us massive momentum now going forward with more trophies to play for this season.
Although Liverpool have too many injured attackers, they are lucky they still have enough defenders to put on the defense line. They also have few players in the midfield line although the options is very limited. However, it is good to see Liverpool have big squad, so they still have some options although many main players got injured.
According to the match, it still looks quite well and Liverpool even more dominated the match. They made 24 shots and won 54% of the ball possessions. It means, Liverpool still can perform with their best although they used many substituted players in the midfield and attacking line. But of course, the shot accuracy will be very different with the main players. So, no attacker could score a goal, Van Dijk who scored a single goal in the extra time to make Liverpool winning the EFL Cup. Again, Van Dijk showed to the people that he is a true hero in Liverpool squad.
Liverpool would have won the game if the first goal was not annulled but ban dijk has been helping liverpool to leave from the difficult situation. He has been a hero for liverpool in this game. The attackers were so struggling on how to break the defensive line of liverpool while at the same time van dijk has come with a solution to win the game through heading the ball to go back of the net. I could not even believe it how chelsea played so badly in this game. it was once again bottling the trophy. I think that the mentality from chelsea has been destroyed with the goal from van dijk. Chelsea tried so hard in the last minutes but it was unable equalize the score till the end of extra time.
It was one of bad achievement from chelsea caused by liverpool played without so many good players. Liverpool were missing TAA, salah, nunez and many more. This club is performing so badly and i think that must become the most important thing to be evaluated by poch.
Chelsea has lost its winning mentality. it plays like a mediocre club. this is not a good squad. Chelsea has so many advantages over liverpool but it was not able maximizing any chances to win the game against this third tier team on the liverpool.. Chelsea is bottling the trophy once again.
That's bad for poch caused by he had been blamed by the fans a lot.
