Well at least it's entertaining for the players and fans tonight if they win the trophy at Wembley. The chances of Liverpool winning against Newcastle are really big so I predict Liverpool as the winner.
This EFL Cup Finals is indeed a final because the two teams are not here to play, Newcastle United is as good as Liverpool and as the Matter of fact analyzing based on visitation to the rivals goalkeeper Newcastle has the must visit because the Liverpool defense is very tense and I have seen some mistakes that if not immediate tackled something could have happened to Liverpool. Actually if Arne Slot could win this finals and the premier League his portfolio will be remarkable because I don't think if the last coach had done this for Liverpool. Meanwhile I'm afraid of what Newcastle United can do because the title is not obvious for Liverpool.
The first half is over and the score is now 1-0 for Newcastle's advantage. D. Bum managed to score a goal right in the 45th minute before the first half really ended.
In the first half, Newcastle controlled the game with many attacks and attempts they made, while the second half might be more interesting, because Liverpool who are currently under quite a lot of pressure, they will try to equalize.
At some point especially in the later part of the second half, Arsenal weren't playing like they were taking the game really serious, they weronly trying to balancthe game and at the same time making sure to not concede a goal before the new of the game, meanwhile they where also looking for a possible chance to add an extra goal but not with any form of desperation, maybe they are seeing that they may not get the opportunity to winning the Premier League this season not by winning Chelsea so they would play lightly and place priorities on preparations for the Champions League fixtures ahead for them as they have an even more tough opponent to face in the Champions League game ahead. Anyways they got three points added to the point and Liverpool so far is loosing their game of which if it ends that way, Arsenal may be drawing closer to having a chance, let's not conclude yet.
This victory is very valuable for Arsenal to be able to strengthen their position as runner-up in the standings. And at the same time this victory also ends the series of bad results they experienced in 3 consecutive weeks that were unable to achieve victory.
Indeed, with the achievement of 3 points in this match, it is still quite far to be able to catch up with Liverpool, but at least through this victory Arsenal managed to widen the gap with Nottingham Forest which was initially only one point now becomes 4 points.
