Chelsea boss Xabi Alonso provides injury update on Maxence Lacroix after loss against Liverpool
- Liverpool defeated Chelsea in a penalty shootout at Anfield, marking the third time in six seasons that Liverpool has eliminated Chelsea from the Carabao Cup tournament.
- Chelsea has lost five consecutive shootouts against Liverpool, a streak beginning in the 2007 Champions League semi-finals, and also suffered defeats in the 2022 Carabao Cup and 2022 FA Cup.
- Joe Gomez converted the decisive penalty, his first goal in 278 games at Anfield, while former captain Henderson scored his spot kick despite jeers from the Kop during the 18-penalty shootout.
- After 12 perfect penalties, Mike Penders parried Ryan Gravenberch's effort and Giorgi Mamardashvili stopped Emmanuel Emegha, turning the shootout as Liverpool's substitutes including Alexis Mac Allister and Alexander Isak converted to secure victory.
- Alonso called the defeat a "small setback," while Iraola's strategy of holding key players in reserve proved effective as his late substitutes successfully converted penalties to advance Liverpool toward a third Carabao Cup in six seasons.
