Chelsea Set Unwanted History, Become First Team To Lose Six Domestic Cup Finals In A Row
Chelsea became the first premier league team in English football history to lose six consecutive domestic cup finals.
The Blues were beaten 1:0 by Liverpool in extra time on Sunday in this year’s Carabao Cup final.
A goal from Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk in the 118th minute proved to be the winner.
Chelsea who played Liverpool without their star men, Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Darwin Nunez, Allison Becker among others, wasted a flurry of chances.
Speaking after the match, Sky Sports pundit and former Manchester United right-back Gary Neville lay into Chelsea.
He declared live on air: “In extra time it’s been Klopp’s kids against the blue, billion-pound bottlejobs.
“Liverpool have been sensational. These young players have been incredible, Klopp must be so proud.
