Liverpool failed to give a proper account of itself in its Carabao Cup final defeat to Newcastle, but the tone was set long before the Reds set foot on the Wembley turf

Liverpool ace, Mohamed Salah, on Sunday achieved an unwanted record following his side’s FA Cup final defeat to Newcastle United. The Egyptian international was unable to help the Premier League leaders as Newcastle won 2-1 at Wembley.

Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has rejected the suggestion that his side were not as “hungry” as opponents Newcastle United during Sunday’s Carabao Cup final defeat. Newcastle won 2-1 at Wembley Stadium to secure their first domestic major trophy since the FA Cup in 1955.
