Thiago Alcantara is ready to put heartbreak behind him and feature in his first cup final for Liverpool when they take on Chelsea in the FA Cup final at Wembley on Saturday.
Liverpool's magician in the middle of the pitch was cruelly denied the chance to start in the Carabao Cup final at the end of February after picking up a hamstring injury in the warm-up. The Reds went on to beat Saturday's opponents, Chelsea, in a penalty shootout.
Thiago was pictured soon after kick-off in the Carabao Cup final in tears on the Liverpool bench while being comforted by Alisson Becker. The Reds number six is hoping to give the fans a day to remember.
