In Liverpool's continuous onslaught, especially Willard's comprehensive technical breakthrough ability, Manchester City was unable to deal with it.
After discovering that Sterling's wing in Manchester City was relatively vulnerable, Velarde, a free agent himself, began to deliberately attack Sterling's wing.
In the 77th minute, after receiving the ball from the right, Villard first passed the ball and easily broke through Sterling's interception. Then, without waiting for the midfielder Fernando to approach, he passed the ball long distance and advanced along the wing at full speed, allowing the center to move laterally. Fernando, who came over, had no chance of getting close.
As a last resort, Manchester City full-back Clichy, center back Otamendi and others also moved to the wings to prepare to contain Velarde and prevent him from cutting in to shoot or pass from underneath.
As Fernando, Clichy and others moved, other Manchester City players naturally followed suit, and Blue Moon's defensive front began to tilt towards the wing where Willard was.
As a result, Velarde did not really go down or cut in to shoot. Instead, not far behind the center line, he suddenly made a long pass and kicked the ball into the gap on the left side of his side.
The Manchester City players looked in the direction of the ball and discovered that Coutinho on the left wing was unmarked. But it was already too late for them to interfere with Coutinho at this time.
Coutinho easily unloaded the ball without being marked, and then dribbled the ball into the penalty area. After shaking off the full-back Sagna in front of him, he started from the left rib of the penalty area about 15 meters away from the goal. Foot shot.
Coutinho played a good quality kick, and the ball flew to the far corner of the goal like a sharp arrow against the turf.
Goalkeeper Caballero tried his best to save the ball and successfully deflected the ball with his hand, almost missing the far post.
As a result, Firmino, who was playing from behind, rushed over and rushed to the ground before Otamendi, who was trying to clear the ball, fell to the ground and shoveled the ball into the goal.
With Coutinho's shot, Caballero's flying save, and Firmino's follow-up shot, all the Red Army fans at the scene and in front of the TV were excited.
The commentators also shouted loudly:
"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooal..."
"The ball went in!!!"
"Firmino scored with a shovel shot from the back and Caballero saved the ball and shoved it into the goal again!"
"Villard's breakthrough on the right affected Manchester City's overall defense line, leaving Manchester City's defense line on the other side empty. Then Velarde made a big foot transfer and successfully transferred the ball to the other side of the pitch to Coutinho. A chance to calmly stop the ball and shoot.”
"Although Coutinho's shot failed to score, he also succeeded in allowing Caballero to make a save and failed to control the ball, giving Firmino a chance to shoot from behind."
"Otamendi, who was returning to defense, was probably afraid that he would shovel the ball into the goal, so he did not dare to touch the ball with a flying shovel. The opportunity was left to Firmino."
"Liverpool rewritten the score to 3-1 and were already two goals ahead. At this time, the time was approaching the 80th minute, and Liverpool could be said to have secured the victory."
"If Manchester City cannot score two goals in a row in the next time, Liverpool will win this final and win the EFL Cup."
Amid Liverpool's crazy celebrations, Manchester City was naturally unwilling to lose. No one enters the finals just to win second place. Everyone’s only goal is to win the championship.
Therefore, when Liverpool was celebrating, Manchester City also immediately made substitution adjustments, replacing two forwards, removing a midfielder and a defender, and began to attack fiercely.
At this time, Klopp no longer clung to his 433 formation, but immediately replaced Sturridge and Coutinho, replacing them with a defensive midfielder and a central defender to strengthen defense.
Coupled with Willard's running all over the field, Manchester City has nothing to do with the Red Army regardless of ground attack or aerial attack.
In the 90th minute, Yaya Toure once hit a very good high-quality long shot outside the penalty area. However, when the ball flew into the penalty area, his brother Kolo Toure happened to fly to block the hole of the shot. Blocked the ball with his back.
If Kolo Toure hadn't blocked the hole of the goal and destroyed it, it might have actually been scored.
But the ball has been destroyed, and the Manchester City generals are doing nothing.
Until the last minute of injury time, Manchester City failed to score another goal, let alone equalize the score.
After 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game. Liverpool defeated Manchester City 3-1 and won the final.
"The referee blew the final whistle and the game was over."
"Liverpool defeated Manchester City 3-1 with goals from Willard, Coutinho and Firmino and won the English League Cup in the 2015/2016 season."
"The last time Liverpool won a championship was back in the 2011/2012 season, when they also won the EFL Cup."
"Liverpool has not won any championships since 2012. This is a bit embarrassing for the Red Army, which claims to be a super giant."
"But the arrival of Willard changed everything. Now, Liverpool has won the EFL Cup this season. And there is still a chance to hit the Europa League and the Premier League, especially the Premier League. If they win the Premier League, it will be Liverpool The first ever Premier League title means a lot."
"Willard was also elected as the MVP of this final. In addition to a direct goal, Willard also had many key defensive and offensive organizations. He was the key to determining the outcome of this game."
"There is no doubt that both Liverpool and Velarde are on the right path. Klopp's free agent transformation of Velarde has been a great success."
"Liverpool has been completely transformed and is starting to compete for championships on all fronts."
He joined during the winter break and won a championship at the end of February. Velarde was also very excited and celebrated warmly with his teammates, coaches and fans.
Aguero, Otamendi, Zabaleta and other Manchester City players also congratulated Velarde, and Velarde also comforted them.
More than 20 minutes later, the podium was set up. After Manchester City received the runner-up medal first, Willard and his teammates went on stage to receive the championship medal.
Then, as the audience sang "We are the champions", captain Henderson lifted the championship trophy, and Liverpool won the English League Cup in the 2015/2016 season.
As for Willard, in addition to the experience of the final itself, he also received a championship reward of 100 million experience points, which is not cheap.
However, Villard now needs too much experience to upgrade, which requires a total of 800 million. This 100 million experience is a drop in the bucket.
Only by winning the Europa League and having 1 billion in experience will you be able to directly upgrade.
