Chelsea and Liverpool will face off in the final of the Carabao Cup (Wembley Stadium), which will be held on Sunday, February 25, local time.
Chelsea faced Middlesbrough (Second Division) in the semi-finals. Chelsea finished the first leg 0-1, but in the second leg they took the lead from an own goal in the 15th minute, and Enso Fernandes scored in the 29th minute, successfully making a comeback with a combined score of two games. Chelsea then added four points, including two from Cole Palmer, and won the match 6-2 on aggregate.
While Chelsea won the Champions League (CL) in the 2020-21 season and the FIFA Club World Cup the following year, they have not won a title in domestic cup competitions since the FA Cup in the 2017-18 season. In the 2021-22 season, they lost to Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final in a penalty shootout, and have been runners-up in the FA Cup for the third consecutive year since the 2019-20 season. All eyes will be on whether they will be able to win their first title since the ownership change in May 2022.
Meanwhile, Liverpool faced Fulham in the semi-finals. In the first leg, the team conceded the lead, but Curtis Jones scored in the 68th minute and Cody Gakpo scored in the 71st minute to win 2-1. The second leg ended 1-1, but they won 3-2 on aggregate and advanced to the final.
In addition to the Carabao Cup, Liverpool still have the possibility of winning the Premier League, FA Cup, and Europa League (EL). First of all, they want to win their first title for manager Jurgen Klopp, who announced his retirement at the end of this season.

- Liverpool midfielder Wataru Endo has played the full starting role in the last three consecutive league games. In this season’s Carabao Cup, there were 3 games (3rd round vs. Leicester, 4th round vs. Bournemouth, quarterfinals), excluding 2 semifinals, which I missed because I was participating in the “AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023” as a member of the Japanese national team. – Participated in the match against West Ham).
