What Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp did before Kepa Arrizabalaga Chelsea penalty miss in the Carabao Cup final

Liverpool have claimed the Carabao Cup after beating Chelsea on penalties in a dramatic shootout victory at Wembley.

The two sides currently separated after 120 minutes of football at the home of English football, with a shootout deciding the destination of the trophy.

And after 21 successive spot kicks, Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, who was brought on for the shootout, missed his penalty to hand the Reds the win.

But as the Spanish international was preparing to take his penalty, it appears it got all too much for Jurgen Klopp, who simply couldn’t watch the final moments of the shootout.

The Reds boss turned his back on the action as Arrizabalaga blazed over before the German celebrated with members of his coaching staff and players.

The victory hands Liverpool their ninth League Cup, and it is the first time the Reds have claimed the trophy for 10 years.
