Check out “Chelsea Set Bad Record After Carabao Cup Final Loss To Liverpool.” Virgil Van Dijk’s spectacular late goal in extra time gave Liverpool the Carabao Cup final victory over Chelsea on Sunday, 1-0.
After losing six straight domestic cup finals (2019 Carabao Cup, 2020 FA Cup, 2021 FA Cup, 2022 Carabao Cup, 2022 FA Cup, and 2024 Carabao Cup), Chelsea is currently the only team in English football history to do so.
Liverpool became the first English Football League team to win ten titles. Chelsea will lose to Liverpool in the League Cup final again this year. In 2022, the Reds beat the Blues in a grueling penalty shootout. Argentina coach Mauricio Pochettino has yet to win an English football trophy.
Van Dijk believed he had opened the score in the 60th minute before scoring the winner, but the goal was rejected after consulting VAR. In the 118th minute, the captain of the Netherlands finally scored the game-winning goal.

AC Milan Manager Tells Chukwueze to Improve
The manager of AC Milan, Stefano Pioli, has issued a challenge to Samuel Chukwueze, urging him to improve his performance. The winger has had a difficult time making a positive impact at the San Siro since he arrived from Villarreal, a team that plays in La Liga, in the summer of last year.
In 15 league matches for the Serie A giants, the Nigerian international has not been able to score or produce an assist. He has also failed to hit the target. Despite this, the 24-year-old player has participated in the UEFA Champions League and has scored twice and registered one assist.
During an interview with the club’s official website, Pioli stated that Pulisic and Chukwueze had similar attributes. “Pulisic not only works but also assists and scores goals. To be successful, Chukwueze needs to not just score goals but also get assists and put in effort.
Napoli Coach: Tired Osimhen Will Get Fit
Napoli’s new coach, Francesco Calzona, says Victor Osimhen is fatigued but will soon return to form. Osimhen scored his second goal in two matches after returning from the African Cup of Nations (AFCON), where the Super Eagles finished second.
In spite of everything, Napoli was unable to overcome Cagliari’s late goal, which resulted in a 1-1 stalemate between the two teams on Sunday. This was Calzona’s first game after taking over for Walter Mazzarri, who had lost his position.
When asked about Osimhen’s performance, Calzona responded to DAZN via Football Italia by saying, “He was merely fatigued.” “Victor is an unforgettable individual. Over the course of two matches, he scored two goals and will gradually come back into condition.
“Don’t forget that he participated in the African Cup of Nations. The players are utterly heartbroken upon their return. Even though he was exhausted, he continued to play against Barcelona. However, athletes always want to stay on the field.
With his goal against Cagliari on Sunday, Osimhen has scored eight goals in a total of fourteen league appearances this season. In the UEFA Champions League campaign that is now underway, he has scored two goals in a total of five matches.
