Mauricio Pochettino hopes Chelsea is treated equally against Liverpool in the English Cup final
Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino looks forward to the Carabao Cup final against Liverpool this Sunday. Pochettino wants his team to not have a similar situation as the 4-1 loss against Liverpool at Anfield. Pochettino said, "I think we need to be sure we are going to compete and be fair in every single decision. When we played at Anfield I think…not one key decision was for us. Two penalties were not given. Duels, 50-50s, always for another colour. Always red. I want to be treated in a fair way."
