FC Liverpool also failed in the EFL Cup after the end of the Champions League. Newcastle United with the former Dortmund Alexander Isak won 2-1 against the Reds on Sunday in Wembley and won the first title since the 1955. ISAK cup victory in the 52nd minute for the Magpies for the decisive 2-0. Previously, a supposed goal of the outstanding man had not counted due to a controversial offside situation.
Newcastle took the lead in the 45th minute by new international Dan Burn. In the end, Liverpool only managed the connection goal through Federico Chiesa (90.+4). Liverpool won the league cup last year. In the current season, after leaving the premier class and the embarrassing FA-Cup defeat against second division, Plymouth only remains the league, which the LFC is currently leading confidently with a twelve points.
While the Newcastle professionals left no doubt from the start that they actually wanted the league cup that was actually considered insignificant in England, Liverpool needed long to come into play. The team, which had failed in the round class in the round of 16 in a penalty shoot-out on Paris Saint-Germain, had a hard time and failed several times due to Newcastle goalkeeper Nick. It was only in the almost ten-minute added time that Chiesa, which was given after a long VAR test, once again caused high voltage.
