Man City beat Liverpool 3-1 on penalties in League Cup final

Philippe Coutinho's 83rd-minute equaliser forced the League Cup final against Manuel Pellegrini's team into extra-time and penalties, but an inspired performance from Man City's second-choice goalkeeper Willy Caballero ensured Klopp will have to wait a little bit longer to secure his first piece of silverware as Reds manager.

Sagna, who was taken off at the start of extra time at Wembley, said: "First of all we need to recover because we have an important game on Wednesday but we are confident". You want your best penalty takers [first], you think they'd be more chance of Daniel Sturridge scoring than Lucas Leiva.

"It's a huge moment for me and my family", he told Sky Sports.

Colin Kaepernick: Texans not interested in Colin Kaepernick
The Broncos' name keeps popping up with Kaepernick as a fallback in case Denver can not come to terms with Brock Osweiler. After all that, it's relatively hard for me to see why the Browns would be interested in trading for Kaepernick.

Caballero went on to save three spot kicks as Manchester City won 3-1 on penalties after a 1-1 draw. Caballero featured in the subsequent 5-1 defeat, which came before a crucial week that also saw City travel to Ukraine to meet Dynamo Kyiv in the first-leg of the Champions League's round of 16, as well as the League Cup final against Liverpool. I know some media were ready to criticise me if Willy made a mistake but I trust him so I am very happy to win the title for the players, the club, the fans and staff and for Willy, because he deserves it.

Meanwhile, Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp has reached a cup final in each of his last five seasons as a manager, but has lost the last four. While critics chided Pellegrini for not going with stalwart Joe Hart in a Cup final, the Chilean stayed with Caballero and was rewarded for his confidence.

His Liverpool counterpart Jurgen Klopp, meanwhile, met with disappointment in his first attempt to win a trophy following his appointment as the successor to Brendan Rodgers in October. "I tried to make good decisions and fortunately God helped me a lot because it was a really, really good night for me". To win this cup is awesome. But we have the trophy now and we have to enjoy. "It was a hard, hard week for me, but we have the trophy now", explained Caballero.

Boris Nemtsov murder: Memorial march for opposition leader goes ahead in Moscow
Finland's premier was asked how these latest comments from Putin would affect the refugee situation on Finland's eastern border. Opposition activists have also been thwarted in their attempts to get the name of the bridge changed to Nemtsov Bridge.

It was only the fourth shoot-out Liverpool had lost in 18 attempts. You can't say it wasn't important because it was.

"If my press officer would allow me to say shit, I'd say shit".

"These things happen and you have to strike back, and that's what we did". We have to go the hard way - that's how it is. "We can't change this game now". "We have to carry on, we will carry on". That is really important.
