Chelsea defender Levi Colwill left Mauricio Pochettino absolutely fuming during one moment in the Blues’ 1-0 loss against Liverpool yesterday.

It took Liverpool until practically the end of extra time to score the winner in the Carabao Cup final against their Premier League rivals.

However, the Reds could have scored much earlier, with Chelsea not putting in a great performance. As per football.london, during a phase of play in the second half, Levi Colwill booted the ball off the pitch instead of completing a pass to Ben Chilwell down the left flank, which left Mauricio Pochettino raging.

While Colwill will be gutted that Chelsea missed out on a trophy, his father may not.

The central defender recently revealed that his dad is actually a Liverpool supporter.

Levi Colwill had a good final

Pochettino may not have always been happy with Colwill yesterday, but overall, the centre-back had a pretty good final.

For the game, Colwill earned a rating of 7.5 on WhoScored. According to the same website, he also made eight clearances, the most in the match.

The 21-year-old also managed to thwart some of Liverpool’s attacks with interceptions, making three on the day. Moises Caicedo was the only Chelsea player to record more during the tight affair at Wembley Stadium.

Colwill has been playing at left-back this season, but what these recent games against Liverpool and Manchester City have shown is that the English youngster is more than capable of starting in central defence.

His future looks to be there at Chelsea, especially with all of the injuries Benoit Badiashile and Wesley Fofana have been picking up and with Thiago Silva set to leave the club in the summer.

The Brazilian is out of contract at the end of the season, so Colwill could end up replacing him in the team permanently next term and moving away from the left-back position.
