Chelsea really had a good fight because I didn't expect them to even reach the extra time, this was a narrow win for Liverpool and it was a good thing for them after the absent of their key players they managed to maintain their consistent and also how strong they are, they prove to be the strongest club in Premier league and also the Europa League too.
Good fight or bad fight, if in a final match, you can not win it, you will not have a title. Without a title, nobody will remember you years later. They mostly remember about the winners, champions, not runner-ups.
It is also shame to see Chelsea with an expensive squad failed to beat Liverpool with many young players. It's their very good chance to beat Liverpool and get a title to lit up their bad season.
You both have a point, in terms of the fight Chelsea of course with the team in poor condition, was still able to hold Liverpool back even though they conceded in the last minute. Because the point is that Liverpool were unable to score a single goal for 115 minutes with players in better condition than Chelsea. So that's the point, we know the difference in the strength of each team and no matter how bad Chelsea is, if Liverpool can only score 1 goal it means there has been strong resistance for more than 115 minutes from Chelsea. Just imagine 24 shots and 11 of them on target from Liverpool showing that Chelsea defense is trying with all its might.
Liverpool created some chances and only luckiness can help Chelsea to avoid conceded goals till the extra time. Generally Liverpool played better than Chelsea and they deserved to win the match and lift the cup.
This title is a first one for Liverpool and Klopp to enjoy in a last season of Klopp era in Anfield. Soon they will remember the German coach a lot who came to their clubs 9 years ago and helped them to win many titles after many decades under Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City.
