We rate the players from both sides after Liverpool's extra-time Carabao Cup final win over Chelsea as Virgil van Dijk and Caoimhin Kelleher step up.
LiverpoolCaoimhin Kelleher - 9 Liverpool's superman. He flew to their rescue when called upon. It started with a world-class save to deny Cole Palmer from point-blank range before he made a supreme block at the feet of Conor Gallagher. He was brilliantly positioned for Christopher Nkunku's chance in injury time as he was throughout. A performance for the ages. Andy Robertson - 7 Reliable as ever.
Regardless, commanded his box well and swept up behind Axel Disasi and Levi Colwill, as well as producing a superb save to deny Elliott in the dying embers of extra-time. Needed better from the defenders in front of him as Van Dijk ghosted in to settle the game - nothing he could do. Axel Disasi - 5Disasi is the only player to start all six League Cup games on Chelsea's run to the final, and like Colwill, benefitted from the fact Liverpool were lacking firepower.
