Meeting Leicester City is not expected to be an easy match for Liverpool in the third round of the Carabao Cup.
After the poor 2022/23 season, Liverpool went through a tumultuous summer and gradually transformed.
The result is a Liverpool team that is closely following Man City in the Premier League championship race this season. The Kop is on a streak of 5 consecutive winning matches to rise to 2nd place with 16 points, only 2 points behind top team Man City.

In the 3rd minute, Liverpool was doused with cold water when Kasey McAteer coolly scored to open the score from a quick counter-аttаck.

It wasn’t until the 48th minute that Liverpool equalized thanks to Cody Gakpo.
In the 70th minute, substitute Dominik Szoboszlai fired a shot to increase the score to 2-1.
And in the final minute of play, Diogo Jota completed Liverpool’s comeback with a skillful backheel to seal the score 3-1.
