    These two have met in the League Cup final once before, exactly 17 years ago. Chelsea won 3-2 in extra time in Cardiff.

    John Arne Riise volleyed Liverpool ahead after 45 seconds but Steven Gerrard scored a 79th-minute own goal.

    Blues boss Jose Mourinho was sent off for taunting Liverpool fans after the goal and he watched on television as his side went on to win the game.

    Didier Drogba and Mateja Kezman scored from close range before Antonio Nunez's header made for a tense finale.

    It was Mourinho's first trophy in England.
