Spurs overcome shock moment and win late against Liverpool!

Tottenham Hotspur won the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg against Liverpool FC 1-0. Lucas Bergvall scored the decisive goal in the 86th minute after Tottenham came on strong despite suffering a medical emergency early in the game. Uruguayan international Rodrigo Bentancur was seriously injured when he remained motionless on the ground after attempting a header. How today.at reported that after intensive treatment, Bentancur was taken off the field on a stretcher and taken directly to the hospital. The initial information was that he was conscious and responsive.

Tension until the last minute

The match was marked by a long break in the first round when Bentancur was injured.

There were several chances on both sides in the second half, but in the end it was Bergvall who scored the only decisive goal. Dominik Solanke had previously had a possible goal not counted due to offside (VAR). nytimes.com reported.
