Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta said losing a second final this season to Liverpool in a penalty shoot-out is a difficult pill to swallow.

The comes as the Reds won the Blues on penalty shootouts, in a repeat of February’s Carabao Cup final.

Azpilicueta admitted he and his teammates are hurting after the loss, but there is nothing they can do but accept it and move on.

‘It’s difficult. Of course we’d liked to have had a different result and we are disappointed to lose,’ he said.

‘When we arrived at the penalty shoot-out we tried to do the best we can. We were ready for it. Unfortunately this time it didn’t happen again.

‘It’s football. It’s hard to take but somehow you have to resolve the game and in the last two games on penalties we were not on the winning side.’

Chelsea will now have to focus on next season as they no longer have any chance of winning any trophy again this season.
