The worrying full -time video shows more trouble for Liverpool in the middle of a sharp waste of the form

Liverpool was beaten by Newcastle United today in the final of the English League Cup.

Newcastle won the game 2-1, thanks to the goals from Dan Burn and Alexander Isak. Federico Chiesa has collected a consolation goal for Liverpool deep into the additional time. However, it was not enough for the red to get something out of the competition.

Liverpool was completely exceeded by a deserved Newcastle team, which has now ended her longer waiting time for a trophy.

The Reds were excluded from the UEFA Champions League at the beginning of this week, and the defeat in the cup final will be a hammer strike for them. It remains to be seen whether Liverpool can collapse strongly and get your stuttering campaign back on the right track.

However, Liverpool has now been broadcast a big blow with the midfielder Harvey Elliott, who increases an injury towards the end of the game. The midfielder had to be helped by the medical staff from the square, and a video of the incident shows that Arne Slot and his team could give more problems in the coming weeks.

Due to the lack of rotation in the past few months, Liverpool players have been slaughtered and you will have to turn the squad in the coming weeks to achieve the optimal level of performance and win the title.

If Elliott's injury is serious, this could be a big blow to Liverpool. The talented young attacking midfielder can stand in several roles and his ability to create scoring opportunities and to be the back of the network very useful for the red.

It will be interesting to see if he can quickly return to the action. Liverpool has shown a strong drop in the form in recent weeks and the injury could not have come at a worse time.
