EFL CUP Tottenham 1 vs Liverpool 0.

Tottenham Hotspur secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Liverpool in the first leg of their EFL Cup semi-final. The winning goal came from 18-year-old Lucas Bergvall, who scored in the 86th minute, making him Tottenham's youngest scorer in the EFL Cup since Gareth Bale in 2007 . The match was intense, with both teams creating scoring opportunities. However, Liverpool's frustration grew when Bergvall wasn't given a second yellow card for a late tackle on Kostas Tsimikas . Tottenham's Dominic Solanke had a goal disallowed due to offside, and Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold saw his powerful shot cleared off the line by Radu Dragusin . The result gives Tottenham a slim advantage ahead of the second leg at Anfield on February 6. Liverpool will be looking to bounce back and retain the trophy .
