In the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final, Liverpool beat Chelsea 3:1 at home, which can be regarded as one foot into the League Cup final of this season.

It was a bit of a surprise that the red-blue battle between Liverpool and Chelsea came to such a result.

Some media believe that Jackie Chan's outstanding performance dominated the game and caught Chelsea by surprise.

Some people think that Mourinho is too arrogant and rotates in games like the semi-finals.

Some people think that Mourinho didn't take the League Cup seriously at all. He is now focused on winning the Premier League, and being out of the League Cup doesn't matter to him at all.

No matter what the real reason is, the result of the game has already been determined and will not change.

Liverpool gained a two-goal advantage in the first leg, which greatly took the lead.

In another game of the League Cup semi-final, Tottenham beat Sheffield United 1-0 at home, and there was no surprise.

According to the current results, there is a high probability that Liverpool will face Tottenham in the League Cup final this season.

For this likely outcome, Arsenal fans began to leave messages on Jackie Chan's Twitter.

"Bruce, if you still love Arsenal, then you must beat Tottenham in the League Cup final and fuck them hard."

There are many teams in London, but the most hostile ones are undoubtedly Arsenal and Tottenham, the sworn enemies of North London.

For Arsenal fans, they certainly don't want to see Tottenham win the championship, even if Arsenal just ended their eight consecutive years without a championship last year.

The weekend after the League Cup semi-final is reserved for the FA Cup.

On January 24, in the fourth round of the FA Cup, Liverpool played against the British Championship team Bolton at home.

Bolton can be regarded as the veteran team of the Premier League. They were one of the founding members of the English Football League and the only team among the twelve member teams that has never won the English top league championship.

Of course, these can only show that Bolton has a long history, but they have had poor performance for a long time. Since they were relegated this season, they have never been promoted back.

Even in the current British Championship, Bolton has been reduced to the point of relegation.

Facing Bolton at home, Rodgers arranged a half-rotation lineup, and he didn't seem to give up the FA Cup.

In fact, Liverpool is currently fighting on three fronts in the Champions League, Premier League and League Cup. It is completely understandable to give up the FA Cup.

But Rogers may not think so.

Liverpool played in a half-rotation at home against the defending Bolton. They failed to score for most of the attack, and finally had to come on as a substitute for Lee Chenglong.

In the 65th minute, Jackie Chan and Coutinho broke into the penalty area after a two-to-one cooperation. They volleyed and scored the only goal of the game.

In this way, Liverpool beat Bolton 1-0 at home and successfully advanced to the next round of the FA Cup, which is the top sixteen.

In this round of the FA Cup, there were quite a few upsets.

Chelsea was eliminated by the Championship team Bradford 2:4, Manchester City was eliminated by the Championship team Middlesbrough 0:2, Tottenham was eliminated by the Premier League newly promoted Leicester City 1:2, and Manchester United away 0 :0 Boring draw with the English second team Cambridge United.

These are really colder than ever.

This time, there are three draws in the top six of the Premier League, and there is also a rematch for Manchester United. Only Arsenal and Liverpool have successfully passed the test.

On January 27th, in the middle of the week, in the second leg of the English League Cup semi-final, Liverpool went away to challenge Chelsea.

Liverpool played cautiously at Stamford Bridge due to their huge lead in the first leg.

As conservative as possible, Liverpool lost 0:1 away to Chelsea, relying on the score advantage of 3:2 in the two rounds, successfully advanced to the League Cup final of this season.

After the game, Jackie Lee expressed his thoughts on representing Liverpool in the final for the first time on the sidelines.

"Chelsea are a very strong team and it's been a tough series."

"Anyway, we're in the final and the next thing is to fight for the title."

"We will definitely beat the opponent to win the championship, no matter who the final opponent is."

"This will be my first title for the team after joining Liverpool."

The second leg of the other Carabao Cup semi-final came to an end the day after the Liverpool game.

Tottenham drew with Sheffield United 2:2 in the away game and eliminated their opponents with a total score of 3:2 to advance.

In this case, Liverpool's opponent in the League Cup final is determined, and it will be Tottenham.

As soon as the result came out, Li Chenglong's Twitter was once again occupied by Arsenal fans.

"Time to prove you're an Arsenal fan, Bruce."

"Bruce, you must kill Tottenham and never let them win the championship."

"Whether it's for Arsenal or Liverpool, you have to give your best and you must not let Tottenham win the title."

"As long as you can do a good job of sniping Tottenham, next time you come to the Emirates Stadium, we will give you a standing ovation."

"Bruce, for God's sake, please do what you have to do."

"Super blues, it's time to pay for Arsenal and you should show it."

"I heard that you fought with Tottenham fans when you were a child, but that was just a child's play. Now is your real war with Tottenham."

"If Tottenham win the championship, it will be more uncomfortable for us than being stripped naked and thrown in the street. Bruce, you can't let such a cruel thing happen."

"I've actually made a bet with my fellow Tottenham fans that if they win the title, I'm going to run naked in the streets."

"If Tottenham really win the title, I may have to pretend to be sick and take two weeks off from work."

"But I know those bastards will come to my house on purpose and bring something like lemons and oranges..."

Under Li Chenglong's Twitter, all Arsenal fans swiped the screen, and they all asked to snipe Tottenham.

In the face of the anger of Arsenal fans, Lee Chenglong also sent a special tweet.

"As a professional player, it's my job to defeat my opponent and win the championship. There is no need to say anything."

"At the same time, pursuing the victory of every game and striving for every championship is also the determination that a top player must have."

"So everyone can rest assured that I will be the winner of the final and Liverpool will be the final champion."

Li Chenglong said he was very confident, but facing Tottenham in the final, in fact, it is difficult for Liverpool to win.

After Tottenham experienced a turbulent coaching change at the beginning of the season, they are now starting to play better and better, and are in a rising period, which is more difficult.

But the League Cup final has to wait until March, it's still early, so you can prepare slowly.
