Tottenham Hotspur secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Liverpool in the first leg of the Carabao Cup 2024/25 semifinals. Although Spurs’ performance lacked conviction, it was a memorable night for young forward Willhoit Bergvall, who stepped up when it mattered most.
In a game where clear-cut chances were at a premium, the 19-year-old Bergvall emerged as the hero. With just four minutes of regular time remaining, he capitalized on a lapse in Liverpool’s defense to slot home the decisive goal in the 86th minute, sending the home fans into raptures.
Despite being on the back foot for much of the game, Tottenham’s defense held firm under pressure from a relentless Liverpool attack. Tottenham’s goalkeeper produced a string of crucial saves to preserve the slender lead.
While Spurs now have the advantage heading into the second leg, the tie remains finely balanced.
