After losing 0-1 in the first leg of the semi-finals, Liverpool turned the tables in the rematch with Tottenham at Anfield this morning (February 7). The home team scored 4 goals against their opponents in a completely dominant match.
Liverpool had 64% possession throughout the match. The Premier League leaders had 26 shots (mostly inside the box), 10 of which were on target.
Tottenham escaped a goal in the 30th minute when Liverpool were ruled offside. However, the visitors - already in rock bottom form, especially with a very weak defense - could not withstand the opponent's attack.
Liverpool into the final of the English League Cup.
Tottenham conceded in the 34th minute when Mohamed Salah set up Cody Gakpo to open the scoring. Tottenham's first-leg lead was gone.
In the second half, Tottenham's goalkeeper's slowness cost them a penalty. Salah did not miss the chance to increase the score to 2-0 in the second leg and put Liverpool ahead in both matches.
Tottenham's response was negligible. In the second half, the away team did not even have a single shot on target. On the contrary, Liverpool played with more and more excitement.
The home team scored two more goals to consolidate their advantage. Dominik Szoboszlai and Virgil van Dijk scored in turn to seal a 4-0 victory for the Anfield team.
Liverpool beat Tottenham 4-1 on aggregate to reach the final of the EFL Cup. This could be the first trophy for the team under coach Arne Slot. However, to do that, they need to beat Newcastle United.
