Liverpool’s Cup Exit Deepens Worrying Run of Form
Liverpool’s nightmare run continued as Arne Slot’s rotated side suffered a 3-0 defeat to Crystal Palace at Anfield, ending their Carabao Cup hopes in the last 16.
Slot made ten changes from the team beaten at Brentford, handing starts to several academy players and leaving no senior options on the bench. The gamble backfired as two goals from Ismaila Sarr in four first-half minutes put Palace firmly in control before Yeremy Pino sealed the result late on.
Federico Chiesa had Liverpool’s best openings but failed to convert, while Joe Gomez’s costly error led to the opener. The evening worsened when 18-year-old defender Amara Nallo was sent off for denying a goalscoring opportunity, capping another frustrating night for the Reds.
It marks Liverpool’s sixth defeat in seven games, piling pressure on Slot ahead of a defining run of fixtures with Aston Villa at home on Saturday, Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday, and Manchester City away on 9 November.
The Carabao Cup may not be the club’s top priority, but this latest setback highlights the scale of the challenge facing Slot as he tries to steady an increasingly fragile side.
