What Luis Diaz and Liverpool dressing room said after FA Cup final win over Chelsea

Liverpool secured their second trophy of the campaign with a dramatic penalty shootout victory over Chelsea in the FA Cup final on Saturday.

In similar fashion to the Carabao Cup final earlier in the season, two two sides couldn't be separated as it ended goalless after 120 minutes. Kostas Tsimikas buried the winning penalty to win it for the Reds.

The Greece international took to social media after the game, saying: "Arctic blood. Your Greek Scouser."

Captain Jordan Henderson shared a post lifting the trophy, captioned: "Living my dream". While James Milner shared what every Liverpool fan is thinking, saying: "Never get bored of the Hendo shuffle."

Sadio Mane shared an image posing with the trophy alongside Naby Keita, Ibrahima Konate and Divock Origi, writing: "Brothers." Keita himself posted: "Proud of the team! Another trophy for us."

The FA Cup was the one trophy Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool was yet to win, so Trent Alexander-Arnold went on to caption his photo: "Completed the set."

Luis Diaz, who put in a man of the match performance against Chelsea on Saturday, has now won his second trophy with the club after joining in January. He said: "What a dream."

Defender Virgil van Dijk, who made way for Joel Matip at the end of the 90 minutes, said: "What a time to be a Red!"
