While everyone's eyes were on Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid, the parallel began with one of the most anticipated matches of the day, Liverpool vs Fulham, in a match corresponding to the first leg semi-finals of the Carabao Cup, or also known as EFL Cup.

Liverpool started the game with a new lineup, as it should be remembered that Mohamed Salah is not available with Liverpool because he is with Egypt competing in the Africa Cup, known as the AFCON, which begins in a couple of days. Egypt is one of the main candidates.
