Falling in the Final Hurdle: Chelsea Lose Sixth Domestic Cup Final In a Row!
Courtesy of their 1-0 loss to Chelsea in the EFL Cup final last night, the Blues have now lost six domestic cup finals in a row.
Here are the finals that they have lost...
2024 EFL Cup Final: Liverpool 1-0 Chelsea
2022 FA Cup Final: Liverpool 0 - 0 Chelsea (Liv Win on Penalties)
2022 EFL Cup Final: Liverpool 0 - 0 Chelsea (Liv Win on Penalties)
2021 FA Cup Final: Leicester City 1-0 Chelsea
2020 FA Cup Final: Arsenal 2-1 Chelsea
2019 EFL Cup Final: Manchester City 0-0 Chelsea (City Win on Penalties)
While three of these losses have come in penalties, as a whole the concern would be that the Blues have scored just one goal in six domestic finals.
Chelsea's last win in any domestic cup came all the way back in 2018 when they beat Manchester United to win the FA Cup. Though they did win the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Super Cup, and the FIFA Club World Cup since, are the "big day jitters" creeping on Chelsea in domestic competitions? Let me know your thoughts...
