Jurgen Klopp suggests Liverpool might not play Carabao Cup quarter-final following Arsenal victory

A crazy fourth-round game had an equally dramatic finish as the Reds beat Arsenal 5-4 in a shootout at Anfield on Wednesday night after Divock Origi’s goal deep into injury time had made it 5-5 in normal time.

Match dates for the last-eight round of the Carabao Cup are scheduled for the week commencing December 16, when Liverpool will be in Qatar at the FIFA Club World Cup.

The Reds are due to play the semi-final of the global club competition on December 18, with a final or third-place play-off three days later.

Klopp said: “If they can’t find the proper date for us and I don’t mean Christmas Day 3am… then we can’t play the game. Our opponents will progress.

“We will not be the victims of this problem.

“Hopefully it starts now that they think about the fixtures.

“I think a lot of people from the Premier League were watching on TV hoping Arsenal do it. Sorry!”
