"Few people were waiting for themselves", an ex of Liverpool judges the defeat against Newcastle

The former Liverpool player, Jamie Carragher, delivered his analysis of the match between Newcastle and his former team.

Liverpool bowed this Sunday against Newcastle (2-1) in the final of the Carabao Cup (English league cup). A coronation deserved for the Magpies after a sixty-year-old scar without major trophy.

But despite this defeat of Arne Slot's men, some observers, like Jamie Carragher, believe that the Mersey club was lucky in the face of the formation of northern England. According to the former central defender of the Reds, Newcastle could have imposed himself on a wide score.

“Newcastle has not only won, he crushed Liverpool”judged the consultant to Sky Sports. “We should have done 3 or 4 to 0. Liverpool scored a goal of consolation. Difficult to be too critical, given what they seemed to be able to accomplish this season, but few people expected it ”

Now, the residents of Anfield have only the championship to compete. They currently have 12 points ahead of Arsenal before Everton's reception on their lawn, after the international break on April 2.
