It was known that it would be a very even final and it really was. Two of the best teams of today were facing each other.

Throughout the 90s the result was 0-0, which was not changed in extra time (although Chelsea could make the difference with two well disallowed goals both by microscopic offsides).
With this victory, Liverpool reach 9 titles, which makes them the maximum winner of the English League Cup, surpassing Manchester City and thus becoming the maximum winner of this Cup. The “Reds” win this Carabao Cup again after 10 years, the last time being in the 2011/2012 edition.
