LONDON -- Jurgen Klopp is still on course for a magical farewell tour as Liverpool manager and he can thank the club's next generation for getting his injury-hit side over the line in Sunday's 1-0 Carabao Cup final win against Chelsea.

Virgil van Dijk's 118th-minute goal -- a header from a Kostas Tsimikas corner -- secured Liverpool's 10th EFL Cup and consigned Chelsea to a sixth successive defeat with the last three of those coming against Klopp's team.
