Liverpool have discovered their opponents for the Carabao Cup quarter-finals, and it’s none other than AFC Bournemouth! 🔴⚔️
The Reds will welcome the Cherries to Anfield in what promises to be a fascinating encounter, with a place in the semi-finals up for grabs. But there’s an extra storyline that makes this fixture even more interesting! 👀
Andoni Iraola will come face-to-face with his former club once again! The Liverpool boss knows Bournemouth very well, but that familiarity could make this encounter even more complicated.
Iraola reportedly admitted that Bournemouth were the one team he did not want to draw! 😳 The Cherries have been in excellent form, recording an impressive 3-0 victory over Aston Villa to book their place in the last eight.
Liverpool also had to fight hard for qualification, eliminating Chelsea after a dramatic 6-5 penalty shootout victory at Anfield. Joe Gomez converted the decisive penalty to send the Reds into the quarter-finals. ❤️
Now the mission is clear: Liverpool must overcome Bournemouth to move one step closer to another Carabao Cup triumph.
