Harvey Elliott injured during Liverpool’s cup final defeat

Harvey Elliott injured during Liverpool’s cup final defeat

Earlier today, Liverpool were defeated by Newcastle United in the English League Cup final.

Newcastle United won the match 2-1, thanks to goals from Dan Burn and Alexander Isak. Federico Chiesa scored a consolation goal for Liverpool in stoppage time. However, it wasn’t enough for the Reds to achieve anything in the competition.

Liverpool were thoroughly outplayed by a deserving Newcastle side who have now ended their long wait for a trophy.

The Reds were dumped out of the Champions League earlier this week and defeat in the cup final will come as a heavy blow to them. It remains to be seen whether Liverpool can bounce back strongly and get its up-and-down season back on track.

However, Liverpool have now suffered a major blow with midfielder Harvey Elliott injured before the end of the game. The midfielder had to be helped off the pitch by medical staff and film of the incident suggests there could be more trouble ahead for Arne Sloter and his side in the coming weeks.

Liverpool need depth Harvey Elliott.

The lack of rotation in recent months has exhausted Liverpool players, and they need to rotate their lineup in the coming weeks to bring out the best in their performance and win the title.

If Elliott’s injury is serious, it will be a huge blow to Liverpool. The talented young attacking midfielder is capable of playing in a variety of roles and his ability to create scoring chances and find the back of the net will be very useful for the Reds.

It will be interesting to see if he can get back on the field quickly. Liverpool’s form has dropped dramatically in recent weeks and this injury couldn’t come at a worse time.
