FA Cup Final 2022, Liverpool beat Chelsea 6-5 on penalties after a goalless match in regular time.
FA Cup Final 2022, After beating Chelsea 6-5 on penalties in Saturday’s final, Liverpool won the FA Cup for the first time since 2006 and was able to lift four trophies.
As with the League Cup final in February, the FA Cup demonstration game ended 120 minutes before Liverpool were victorious again. This time, Konstantinos Tsimikas scored the team’s first goal with the help of Chelsea midfielder Mason Mason, who scored a penalty before winning a penalty shootout.
“The small margins are again the difference and I cannot be more proud of my boys,” said Klopp emulated Alex Ferguson at Manchester United and became the second manager to win the European Cup, Premier League, League Cup and FA Cup with the same English club.
Liverpool hopes to win the Champions League final against Real Madrid in two weeks. Until then, Klopp should be hoping Manchester City will use it to reclaim this trophy after Manchester City have lost in the last two rounds of the Premier League.
Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker said: “It’s also part of the mentality monster that goes into overtime and maintains high standards with good performances.” “It gives more confidence that we will continue to play in the Premier League and Champions League finals. It’s a fantastic moment and now we just have to enjoy it.”
Chelsea suffered worse at Wembley. Weeks of debate over the Chelsea owners ended as they became the first team in a third straight FA Cup final, losing to Arsenal in 2020 and Leicester last year.
No penalty was awarded in the final of the oldest football tournament at Wembley. Since the start of the National Stadium in 1923, there has not been a single final without a goal in extra time.
However, Liverpool’s last win in the FA Cup in 2006 was one of two previous penalties that determined the Cup final.
Saturday’s final kicked off under the clouds as Liverpool fans ridiculed the national anthem and with half the stadium covered in red fog.
Liverpool won two major FA Cups in the same season for the first time since 2000-2001.
The Blues also became the first team in FA Cup history to lose three straight games. Newcastle United also had a three-game losing streak but finished second in 1974, 1998 and 1999.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is the first German manager to win the FA Cup. He also became the sixth Reds manager to win a prestigious trophy.
