Tottenham beat Liverpool 1-0 in their first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final clash and it was Lucas Bergvall's first goal for Spurs which separated the two teams

Dominic Solanke has claimed that Lucas Bergvall will become a great player for Tottenham after his performance vs Liverpool.

Liverpool's 24-match unbeaten run has come to an end in the most unlikely fashion losing 1-0 to Tottenham in the first leg of the EFL Cup semifinal behind a goal from Lucas Bergvall. With the goal, Bergvall has become the youngest player to score for Tottenham in the EFL Cup since Gareth Bale in September of 2007.

Lucas Bergvall earned Tottenham a slim lead over Liverpool in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium. A match lacking in talking points will be overshadowed by the injury to Rodrigo Bentancur who collapsed in the early stages of the first half and needed to be subbed off the pitch and taken to hospital.

However jubilant Spurs felt by the end, they will know too that they rode their luck in Bergvall of all men scoring the winner. He should really have been sent off for that foul on Tsimikas, and the Greek left-back was receiving treatment when the Swede rolled home, meaning Tottenham scored against 10 men.

Swedish teenager Lucas Bergvall opened his Tottenham Hotspur account in thrilling fashion with the winner in Wednesday's League Cup semi-final first leg but should not even have been on the pitch according to Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk.

Delighted Lucas Bergvall described the “crazy feeling” he experienced after bagging our late winner against Liverpool on Wednesday night.

Liverpool's defeat to Tottenham in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg was shrouded in controversy, with the Reds feeling match-winner Lucas Bergvall should have been sent off.

Arne Slot insisted there was “no debate” that the foul Lucas Bergvall committed on Kostas Tsimikas should have earned the Tottenham teenager a second yellow card minutes before he scored the winner against Liverpool.
