In short
- Goals from Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo and Dominik Szoboszlai sent Liverpool into the fourth round at Anfield on September 15, 2026.
Liverpool advanced to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup with a 3–1 home win over Tottenham Hotspur on September 15, 2026, with Dominik Szoboszlai scoring in stoppage time to settle the tie.
Alexis Mac Allister put Liverpool ahead in the first half. Cody Gakpo extended the lead after the interval, finishing a move that involved several of the home side’s younger players.
Tottenham reduced the deficit when Conor Gallagher headed in from a corner. Liverpool goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili subsequently denied Omar Marmoush as the visitors sought an equaliser.
Szoboszlai then struck from outside the penalty area to restore Liverpool’s two-goal advantage and confirm their progress. The result ended Tottenham’s involvement in the competition at the third-round stage.
Both teams had made substantial changes: Liverpool coach Andoni Iraola changed 10 players from the preceding match against Fulham, while Roberto De Zerbi made eight changes to Tottenham’s lineup, according to the Guardian’s match report.
