Havertz already looking towards Liverpool final

Kai Havertz is already looking forward to Sunday’s Carabao Cup final after Chelsea beat Lille on Tuesday night.

The Blues took control of their Champions League last-16 tie with a 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge.

Havertz scored the opening goal in the match, but he insists Chelsea will immediately shift their focus to Wembley, where they face Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool.

He told BT Sport: “We knew that it was a difficult game, they played good football and the first half was very difficult for us. Now it is half-time and the next game we have to win as well.

“I always give my best also in the Premier League, sometimes you have more luck, sometimes you don’t and I help where I can.

“It is good for me (playing advanced forward). We have a lot of good strikers so it is also good to have a change and not make it easy for the opposition. Today it worked good and I enjoy every forward position.

“We did not play our best football, we could not get the aggressiveness of the last few weeks but we won 2-0 and that is the most important thing. Sunday is another competition and we have to focus on that now.

“It is crazy, we have a lot of chances to win another trophy on Sunday, it will be a tough game. We will put all our strength together and hope we win this game.”
