Match Recap

Liverpool needed four different scorers to shut the door on Tottenham in the League Cup, and it took until stoppage time to make it safe. Alexis Mac Allister opened the scoring in the 21st minute, Cody Gakpo added a second early in the second half, and Conor Gallagher gave Tottenham hope with a 69th-minute reply. Liverpool had the last laugh anyway. Dominik Szoboszlai settled it in the first minute of added time, turning a nervy 2-1 into a comfortable 3-1. The result fits a pattern: across their last two meetings, Liverpool have beaten Tottenham once and drawn once, still unbeaten in the head-to-head. Four goals, four different names on the scoresheet, and the game stayed live until Szoboszlai's late strike finally shut the door. That added-time goal is the one worth rewinding for, the moment that put Tottenham away for good. Watch it in the highlights below.
