Liverpool v Chelsea (Wembley) FA Cup Final

[Norbs]

Watching the shootout again, every time one of our players stepped up to take a pen Ali handed him the ball; they must have adopted this protocol to stop the opposing keeper ****ing about à la Kepa in the League Cup final.

And apparently something instilled in to players is not to take it when the ref blows his whistle but when they're ready

Kelleher did the same thing in the League Cup final. After every penalty he rolled or gave the ball straight to our next taker to stop Kepa getting a chance to interfere.

The quad is on until 22 May!

Mental what this team and club has achieved, so proud of them and all the fans too.

Depends what happens tomorrow and on Tuesday, if City win and we don't then it's over on Tuesday as we will be more than 3 points behind with only one game left. If we win on Tuesday it goes to the 22nd mathematically regardless of the City result tomorrow.

I don't recall that; only Kepa sticks out as ****ing about all the time.

It will go down to the last game. This team will keep going.

**** off the last 2 league games now - it’s all about Paris and getting everyone fit

All about weighing up the odds.

All about weighing up the odds.

Our next game is Tuesday, City play tomorrow, their result for me affects our approach. If they lose tomorrow (unlikely admittedly) we'd be mad not to try and secure a big win at Southampton. If City win tomorrow that might change our approach.

I would imagine that there will be a fair few changes regardless given how close the game is and the fact we just played 120mins and pens and picked up a couple of knocks I would expect a few changes and mins for the likes of Gomez Jones, Tsimikas and maybe even Origi.

Lovely result at the end of the day. I'm leathered.

[Maxiedge]

Yes ! Get in. Yes! Come on red men !!

What a fantastic day, fan zone was rocking and, OMG, how stressful was watching that game, atmosphere in the ground was on another level. If it’s like that for an FA cup final god knows what Paris is going to be like?

Same.

Starting drinking at HT.

I thought we deserved it. Chelsea had chances, but overall we were slightly the better team. We pretty much dominated first half other than two or three breaks, which they seemed to be using to illustrate how bad Lukaku is. Then second half they started really well but we took over after 15 mins.

Extra time was reasonably uneventful.

Then a proper stress fest of a shootout. I thought we’d absolutely ****ed it when Mane missed and I think they did also. But solid pen from Jota, s stunning save and the most unlikely hero ever saw us across the line.

This team has guts. Great final. Great win.

Back home now. Another great day at Wembley in the sun. Ruined. 2 down.

[Fosterbloke]

Yay we won!
