'That must be a first' - Gary Lineker makes Liverpool and Chelsea claim after Carabao Cup final

Gary Lineker has praised Liverpool after winning the Carabao Cup and questioned Chelsea’s decision to change goalkeepers for the penalty shootout.

The Reds played out an end-to-end 0-0 with Chelsea before eventually winning the trophy 11-10 on penalties, with goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga the only player to miss from the spot.

The 27-year-old replaced Edouard Mendy in the final minute of extra time, having already helped Thomas Tuchel’s side to shootout wins over both Villarreal and Aston Villa this season.
