Jamie Carragher, a Sky Sports pundit, argues that Accrington Stanley, despite losing 4-0 to Liverpool in the FA Cup fourth round, posed more of a challenge than Tottenham Hotspur did in the Carabao Cup semi-final. He criticizes Tottenham's lack of aggression and fighting spirit against Liverpool, comparing it to the tenacity displayed by promoted teams visiting Anfield.
Sky Sports' Jamie Carragher believes Accrington Stanley put up more of a fight in their FA Cup fourth-round tie against Liverpool than Tottenham during the Carabao Cup semi-final second leg. League Two side Accrington were beaten 4-0 at Anfield last month - and the stats backed up Carragher's claim!Carragher said: “I’m not just saying this to try and make a headline but I think of an FA Cup tie Liverpool played at home a few weeks ago.
Those three midfield players are big, strong, powerful lads who can run but if I’m playing in a semi-final, I’m hitting Curtis Jones early on.“We saw it from Newcastle . Newcastle were ready and were going to make it as tough as possible. Tottenham didn’t make that tough for Liverpool. It was one of the easiest games they’ve had this season.“Even when promoted teams come to Anfield, they don’t play with that fear. They came with a one-goal lead as well.
