Carabao Cup final: Liverpool's prize money for defeating Chelsea revealed

Liverpool's prize money for defeating Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday has been revealed.

The UK Mirror reports that the win only earned the Reds a small financial reward.

The total pot for the entire competition is just £200,000.

And that amount is shared among the four teams who make it to the semi-finals or further.

Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, who were both eliminated at the semi-final stages, have each received £25,000 each.

The runners-up at Wembley land themselves £50,000 while winners Liverpool will walk away with £100,000.

It is in stark contrast to the FA Cup, in which this season's winners are guaranteed a minimum of £3.4m in prize money.
