    Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp, speaking to Sky Sports: "I am disappointed of course with the end. Pleased with a lot of things I saw in the game. 

    "We tried everything, we scored the goal. We had a big chance with another few situations. It is unlucky but it is one way to lose a cup final.

    "Manchester City should not have scored their goal, we had to strike back and we did. We played well in a lot of moments. It doesn't matter what I say now, it won't change the result.

    "We all have to feel it now. It is was it is. You can fall but it is how you stand up. We cannot change this game now, we have to carry on and we will carry on."

    Ryan Lloyd: Why didn't any of Liverpool's attackers and leaders take penalties? Sturridge? Hendo? Origi? Milner?

    City win League Cup

    Manchester City Manuel Pellegrini, speaking to Sky Sports: "We deserved to win the game, we missed chances but if you asked me which way I'd prefer to win I'd prefer to win it is this way.

    "I'd rather lose the title than lose my word. A lot of media were waiting to criticise me if Willy Caballero makes a mistake. I had a lot of trust in Caballero. I am very pleased for all the players and staff but more for him because he deserved it.

    "We are working very hard. I don't remember Willy making one save in the 90 minutes. They draw in the last eight minutes and it was not easy for me to make a change but we finished the better.

    "To win a title in Wembley is very special. We are not thinking about what we can win, we are thinking about the next game - against Liverpool - we are nine points behind the leader but we have a game in hand."

    "I had a difficult decision with the FA Cup but I think this title and the win in Kiev support my decision."
