Liverpool will go in search of a cup treble when they face Real Madrid in the
UEFA Champions League final at Stade de France on Saturday, May 28.
The Reds were chasing the quadruple until they were pipped to the Premier League title by Manchester City on the final day of the season on Sunday.
Jurgen Klopp's side won the EFL Cup and FA Cup when they defeated Chelsea on penalties in the final of both competitions.

The last time the Merseysiders pulled off a similar feat they took home the old UEFA Cup in 2001 after also lifting the two domestic cups.
Liverpool are England's most successful club in Europe, having conquered the continent on six occasions in 1976–77, 1977–78, 1980–81, 1983–84, 2004–05 and 2018–19.
The 2005 final was probably their most famous after the Reds came from 3-0 down at half-time to beat AC Milan 3-2 on penalties.
Klopp led the team to their sixth European title in 2019 when they saw off league rivals Tottenham 2-0 at the Wanda Metropolitano in Madrid.

They had also just lost out on the top-flight crown to City and the German tactician will recall on those past experiences to repeat the scenario.
"We have now five days to prepare the final, that's what we will do," he said. "We face an incredibly experienced team but that's OK, that's really OK.
"And of course, losing the league today increased the desire to put it right next week, it increased the desire."
