'If you want to win something you have to play against the best': Ibrahima Konate
Liverpool’s defender Ibrahima Konate is excited to return to Wembley for the Carabao Cup final against Newcastle, reflecting on the unforgettable atmosphere at the iconic stadium.
"I’m very happy to go there again - what a stadium - and everyone who was there for the last final there can realise how the fans, how the atmosphere, will be. I’m very happy to go again.
"When you win a trophy with Liverpool it’s just unbelievable. I have so many memories, all my family do as well, when we talk about the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup because I have just won these two competitions.
"But when you see the stands at the end of the game, you just have no words to describe what you can see and yes, it’s good to have this again.
"We know Newcastle have a very, very good team. I think it will be a very good challenge but if you want to win something you have to play against the best players and the best teams," Konate has said.
