The Reds take on the Blues at Wembley again 10 years on from their last FA Cup final meeting, and a defeat led to a decision that wasn't popular with ...
Had Andy Carroll been able to follow up his fine earlier strike with a late header that beat Petr Cech and didn't result in one of the most outstanding saves Wembley has ever seen? Dalglish - then 61, and having taken on the role after more than 12 years away from full-time management - was really more of a monarch from the history books. Dalglish made clear his disappointment at the decision, and plenty of fans did too. Eleven defeats in the last 19 league games of the season would see the Reds finish behind Everton and level on points with Fulham, with only that League Cup success securing European football. Premier League and Champions League success had to be chased, and a decade on both of those mountains have been scaled once and both may still be scaled again in the next couple of weeks. Guidance was nowhere.
After defeating Chelsea on penalties in Saturday's FA Cup final, Liverpool have moved up the list of the competition's most successful clubs.
The Blues’ defeat to Liverpool was their fourth loss in five FA Cup final appearances since 2017, and their third in a row. Liverpool have now drawn level with Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur in the all-time FA Cup standings, with only Arsenal and Manchester United ahead of the trio. Indeed, their most recent triumph, in 2020, was their fourth in seven years.
There's still a Champions League final to come against Real Madrid on May 28 after the end of the Premier League, where Liverpool is three points behind ...
In the penultimate round of the league, the race for second place and an automatic Champions League spot is between Marseille and Monaco. Although second-placed Marseille holds a three-point lead over third-placed Monaco, it faces a tougher-looking trip to Rennes, which is battling with Nice to finish in fourth and the Europa League entry place. Freiburg could yet squeeze into the Champions League with a win at already-qualified Bayer Leverkusen – if Leipzig loses in Bielefeld. Union Berlin can clinch its place in the Europa League with a win at home over Bochum, but Cologne can capitalize on any Union slip-up by beating Stuttgart – which is fighting for survival. Bielefeld is the favorite to join already relegated Greuther Fürth in the second division, but it still has a chance of survival if it beats visiting Leipzig, which needs a point to reach the Champions League. Stuttgart, in the relegation playoff spot, could yet escape and leave Hertha in its place with a win over visiting Cologne if Hertha loses at Borussia Dortmund. Hertha just needs a draw to clinch survival. The next step in Liverpool’s quest for an unlikely quadruple of trophies is the FA Cup final against Chelsea. Jurgen Klopp’s side is looking to repeat the League Cup final triumph over the same London club in February. Winning world football’s oldest competition would complete the set of major trophies for Klopp since taking charge of Liverpool in 2015. Venezia was awarded a stay of execution last week after it beat Bologna 4-3 to end a run of 10 straight defeats and record its first win since February. Also, fellow stragglers Salernitana and Cagliari drew. An investment group led by Todd Boehly looks to complete the takeover from sanctioned owner Roman Abramovich. Tuchel has reached every major final since being hired by Chelsea at the start of 2021, winning the Champions League last season and the Club World Cup in February. The FA Cup final is celebrating 150 years since the start of the competition.
Chelsea and Liverpool face off in the FA Cup final on Saturday afternoon after meeting at Wembley earlier this season in the Carabao Cup, with the Reds ...
In a repeat of this season's Carabao Cup final, the match went to penalties after another goalless stalemate, and Kostas Tsimikas proved the hero after Alisson Becker saved Mason Mount's sudden-death effort. And they did it again in the FA Cup final when Tsimikas came on to score the winning penalty at Wembley after Alisson had saved from Mason Mount. But, just like they did in February, the two teams went to a shootout and the game was decided from the spot. Fans and pundits have debated how much time ten Hag will be afforded before United are expected to compete with the likes of Chelsea, City and Liverpool for silverware once more. Just like the Carabao Cup Final, neither side could find a breakthrough in normal time or extra time despite a host of chances. The win means that Liverpool’s chances of securing a historic quadruple are still alive, though their chances of lifting the Premier League are very slim given Manchester City ’s three-point advantage at the top of the table with two games remaining. Christian Pulisic had a number of chances to open the scoring for the Blues while Luis Diaz was electric in the Liverpool attack and went close on numerous occasions. He didn't seem to be in too much discomfort and managed to walk off the pitch - without limping - before receiving treatment. Speaking after the match, Tsimikas explained how he requested his place in the penalty-taking pecking order during a chat with Klopp ahead of the shootout. This was a triumph of willpower, a victory for indomitable spirit. The final required penalties after neither team managed to break the deadlock inside 120 minutes. However, he could not get his effort past Liverpool stopper Alisson Becker, with the Brazilian producing a fine save.
Add the FA Cup to the collection. Jürgen Klopp has now won every major title for Liverpool.
After the teams converted another round of penalties, Mount was thwarted and Tsimikas produced his biggest moment since joining Liverpool in 2020. "Tomorrow is another day and we still have a lot to do." There were 58 shots produced by the teams without finding the net over their two games at Wembley in 2022. The goalkeeper recovered but it wasn't long before Mohamed Salah went down. This is a fantastic moment and now we just need to enjoy it." This time, the Reds were helped by Chelsea midfielder Mason Mason's penalty being saved before Konstantinos Tsimikas clinched the shootout win with his first-ever goal for the club.

47’ - OFF THE BAR! - Chelsea win a free-kick on the edge of the box on the right-hand side, as Reece James is fouled. Alonso opts to strike it rather than deliver in a cross, and his effort smacks the top of the crossbar! The attacker gets to it before Konate, but his effort trickles narrowly wide of the far post! 8’ - TWO BIG CHANCES FOR LIVERPOOL! - A beautiful pass from Alexander-Arnold with the outside of his foot from central midfield releases Diaz through on goal, but Mendy gets down low to make a crucial save! Liverpool then had the chance to win it courtesy of Sadio Mane, but the Senegalese forward could not replicate his Africa Cup of Nations exploits, as his spot-kick was well saved by his international team-mate Edouard Mendy. Liverpool made a bright start, and were comfortably on top in the early part of the game.
