Diogo’s double sends Liverpool to Wembley - a podcast by BBC Radio 5 live

Steve Crossman is joined by Chris Sutton, senior football reporter Ian Dennis and the former Liverpool and Everton midfielder Don Hutchison as Liverpool have booked their place in the EFL Cup final after beating Arsenal 2-0.

The panel reflect on the importance of Liverpool making their first domestic cup final at Wembley since 2016 and Chris thinks Arsenal’s season “will be seen as a failure” if they now miss out on a top four finish in the Premier League this season.

There is an unmissable post-match interview between Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk and our reporter George Cummins.

And we discuss reports that Ballon d’Or winner Fabio Cannavaro is in talks to replace Rafa Benitez as Everton manager.
