The German coaching final in Wembley is perfect!
Liverpool FC wins 2-0 at Arsenal FC and is in the final of the English League Cup. Waiting there: Champions League winner Chelsea!
Klopp against Tuchel, Reds against Blues – Diogo Jota makes it possible!
The Portuguese (already 10 league goals) shoots the Klopp club single-handedly to Wembley.
19. Minute: Jota starts a super solo, gets the ball 30 meters in front of the Arsenal goal on the left, pulls in on the sixteen, leaves three Gunners defenders and finishes flat with the right into the near corner – 1:0!
77. Minute: Long ball from Alexander-Arnold, Jota takes the ball perfectly with his chest and slings it into the net over the rushing Arsenal keeper Ramsdale. The decision. After the 0-0 in the first leg, that’s easily enough for a place in the final against Tuchel’s Chelsea on February 27th.
The 59,360 spectators in the packed Emirates Stadium watched a wild and gripping cup fight. Arsenal have their first big chance when Lacazette’s free-kick hits the crossbar (5′). After that, Liverpool is on the trigger.
Klopp joker Konaté (replacing Matip at half-time) made it 2-0 on his head after just under an hour, but only hit the post from an Alexander Arnold corner (59′). But today only one hits: Diogo Jota.

Curious brief appearance by Arsenal’s Thomas Partey: Substituted in the 74th minute, he flies down again in the 90th with yellow-red.
So now Klopp against Tuchel at Wembley. Last week Chelsea made it clear that they were in the final against city rivals Tottenham (1-0 and 2-0).
