Chelsea vs Liverpool live score, result, updates, lineups, highlights from Carabao Cup final 2024 - Sporting News

Chelsea face Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final on February 25 in the first major domestic final of the English football season.

This is a repeat of the final of two years ago at Wembley Stadium, when Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher scored the winning penalty in the shootout after a 0-0 draw. The Reds also defeated Chelsea on spot-kicks in the FA Cup final in the same season.

Jurgen Klopp's side could win four trophies this season, which would be quite the way for the German manager to mark his final few months in charge of the Reds. Chelsea, meanwhile, are seeking their first piece of silverware in the era of Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital's ownership.

The winner of today's final will also be assured of a place in the UEFA Europa Conference League qualifying playoff for 2024/25. While Liverpool are firmly expected to qualify for the UEFA Champions League given they sit top of the Premier League table at present, Chelsea, who are 10th, have no such guarantees about European football next season.

The Sporting News is following Chelsea vs. Liverpool live, providing score updates, commentary and highlights as they happen.

Chelsea vs Liverpool live updates, highlights, and commentary

21 mins: How have Chelsea not scored?? Caicedo plays in Conor Gallagher in the huge space Robertson has just vacated. His cross finds Raheem Sterling, who battles with Ibrahima Konate, and the loose ball falls to Cole Palmer. With the goal at his mercy, Palmer is somehow denied by a flying save from Kelleher. Brilliant from the Liverpool goalkeeper, but Chelsea should be winning.

18 mins: Chelsea clear after Gakpo and Gusto both throw themselves into challenges on the edge of the Blues' area with... well, gusto. The long clearance gives Nicolas Jackson a chance, but he falls over before he can control the ball. It's been that sort of start here.

15 mins: Big chance for Diaz! Axel Disasi slips over when in possession on the edge of the Chelsea box. Gakpo pays it to Diaz, whose low shot is well saved by Petrovic.

14 mins: Malo Gusto brings a comfortable save out of Caoimhin Kelleher with a volley from the edge of the box. Barely a minute later, Liverpool twice win the ball back from Chelsea in their half, and Alexis Mac Allister stings the palms of Petrovic.

9 mins: Luis Diaz stretches to get a head on Andrew Robertson's deep cross, but it's an easy save for Petrovic. What Diaz didn't seem to know was that Cody Gakpo was arriving behind him and would likely have had a far better chance to shoot had his teammate left the ball.

6 mins: It's been a bit of an erratic start. Levi Colwill, who turns 21 tomorrow, dribbles out of defence but takes a heavy touch and concedes a free-kick. Chelsea clear the initial delivery, but Moises Caicedo concedes another foul on the edge of the box.

Kickoff: First half

We're underway at Wembley!

10 mins prior to kickoff: Kickoff should be imminent, but there's a problem with Liverpool fans trying to get into Wembley. It seems there are issues with the ticket gates. The below video was posted by Caoimhe O'Neill from The Athletic around 15 minutes ago.

20 mins prior to kickoff: Not long to go now. The players have gone through the warm-ups and kickoff is approaching.

45 mins prior to kickoff: Just how significant will the absence of Salah and Nunez be today? Liverpool were excellent in the second half against Luton Town without those two, but this is a very different task away from Anfield. Chelsea going with the same side that drew at Man City isn't a surprise, but what's next for Thiago Silva, who isn't even in the matchday squad?

Team news

It's confirmed: Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez are OUT of the Carabao Cup final. Liverpool instead have Harvey Elliott, Cody Gakpo, and Luis Diaz in attack. Dominik Szoboszlai and Trent Alexander-Arnold have also failed to make the squad.

Chelsea stick with Djordje Petrovic in goal, even though Robert Sanchez is fit enough for the bench. Thiago Silva is not even in the matchday squad.

1 hour 15 mins prior to kickoff: The big question for Reds fans is how many of their injured players will be available today. Social media has been awash with rival fans declaring victory in the game, either because Salah and Nunez are definitely out, or definitely in. Either way, Jurgen Klopp seemed cheerful enough as he inspected the pitch.

1 hour 30 mins prior to kickoff: Liverpool might be battling something of an injury crisis at the moment, but the hope for the Reds is that Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez, and Dominik Szoboszlai will all be fit to start today's game. That would only underline their tag as favourites to win this final against a Chelsea team they thrashed 4-1 in league play a little over three weeks ago.

2 hours prior to kickoff: Who will win the first major domestic trophy of the English season? We'll find out today. Let's just hope it's not another goalless draw between these teams at Wembley Stadium!
