Carabao Cup Final: VAR Controversies Overshadow Liverpool vs. Chelsea Showdown

The disallowed goal by Virgil van Dijk in the Carabao Cup final between Liverpool and Chelsea has sparked controversy. The VAR decision ruled the goal out due to offside interference by Wataru Endo obstructing Levi Colwill. Pundits including Jamie Redknapp expressed mixed opinions with Mike Dean highlighting the subjective nature of offside calls.

Gary Neville felt it was harsh on Liverpool while Jamie Carragher argued that such blocking happens frequently in set-pieces. Another contentious moment was Moises Caicedo’s challenge on Ryan Gravenberch with Jurgen Klopp angered by the lack of punishment. Pundits debated whether the tackle warranted a red card with opinions divided on the severity of the incident.
