Liverpool beat Chelsea on penalties for the second time this season to win FA cup and keep their quadruple hope alive. After 90 minutes and extra-time failed to separate to two sides, Alisson was the hero for Liverpool in the shootout, saving from Mason Mount in sudden death to secure a 6-5 victory for the Reds.
Just 76 days after the Reds edged past Thomas Tuchel’s men on penalties following a scoreless League Cup final, Wembley witnessed another gripping clash between these sides that went down to the wire.
It was a pulsating final at Wembley. There were nearly 30 efforts on goal, yet neither team made the break through before a shootout was required. It finished 6-5 in favour of the reds.
In the shoot-out, the Reds were helped by Chelsea midfielder Mason Mason’s penalty being saved before Konstantinos Tsimikas clinched the win with his first-ever goal for the club.
In two weeks, Liverpool will be hoping to collect another trophy by beating Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
