Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel's decisions and team selection were crucial to his side's defeat to Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final.The two sides played out an enthralling 0-0 draw before the Blues succumbed to an 11-10 defeat from 12 yards in the penalty shootout.Tuchel's goalkeeping decisions proved crucial, with Edouard Mendy producing a string of important saves after starting in place of Kepa Arrizabalaga, who was crucially subbed on for the shootout.So, here is the one thing that the Chelsea boss got right and the two things he got wrong as Chelsea beat Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley on Sunday.Prior to Sunday’s final, Kepa had played in each of Chelsea’s five matches in this season’s competition, but Tuchel chose to drop his cup goalkeeper in place of his first-choice keeper.His gamble paid off, though, as Mendy made a fine double save to keep the match goalless during the first half, first parrying a long range strike from Naby Keita before springing up to deny his Senegal team-mate Sadio Mane.The Chelsea keeper then made two more huge saves late on in normal time following chaos in the penalty area.Mendy was, however, denied the chance to perform any penalty heroics as he was replaced by Kepa for the shootout.Despite the decisions Tuchel got right, Chelsea missed a host of chances as they failed to capitalise on their dominance, with Romelu Lukaku left on the bench.Mason Mount was the worst culprit as he squandered countless golden opportunities during the match, including hitting the post.The lack of their £97.5million striker certainly hampered Chelsea’s killer touch in front of goal, with several instances where the ball was put into promising areas with no one there to finish.Tuchel’s side
