Chelsea FC History in the League Cup

Chelsea Football Club has a successful history in this competition, winning the EFL Cup on no fewer than nine occasions.

The Blues took part in the very first edition of this competition in the 1960/61 season, reaching the last-16 on that occasion.

In 2022, Chelsea featured in the final of this tournament for a 9th time but lost on penalties to Premier League rivals Liverpool.

Chelsea progressed to the EFL Cup semi-finals for the 16th time in 2023/24, edging Newcastle United in the quarters, and the Stamford Bridge side was drawn against Middlesbrough in the last-four.

Chelsea FC Top Achievements in the Carabao Cup

CFC won this trophy for the first time in 1965, in what was just the fifth edition of the competition. Bobby Tambling and Terry Venables were both on the scoresheet as the Blues earned a 3-2 win over Leicester City at Stamford Bridge.

Following a maiden League Cup title, more than 30 years passed before the West London club reclaimed this trophy in 1997 with a 2-0 victory over Middlesbrough, orchestrated by then-Chelsea boss Gianluca Vialli.

That would be the last time Chelsea celebrated EFL Cup success until the Roman Abramovich era commenced in 2003. The Blues subsequently won this cup twice in three years under José Mourinho, defeating Rafael Benitez's Liverpool and Arsène Wenger's Arsenal, respectively, in the 2004/2005 and 2006/07 League Cup finals.

Chelsea etched their names further into Cup folklore with a fifth triumph in 2015, defeating Tottenham Hotspur in the final, as Mourinho became just the third manager to win this trophy three times.

CFC have also ended runners-up in the Carabao Cup final multiple times including to Manchester City in 2019 and against Liverpool in 2022, with Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga making the headlines on both occasions.

Chelsea FC Memorable Moments In the Carabao Cup

There is no shortage of memorable and joyous occasions for Chelsea in this particular competition.

One such match was the League Cup final of 2005, between Chelsea and Liverpool at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. John Arne Riise put the Reds in front within 60 seconds after kick-off and the scoreline remained unchanged until a Steven Gerrard own-goal in the final 15 minutes of the 90. A further three goals were netted in extra-time, with Didier Drogba among the scorers for eventual champions Chelsea.

In 2007, José Mourinho battled long-standing managerial rival Arsène Wenger in the Carling Cup final. Theo Walcott gave Arsenal an early advantage but Drogba's double swayed the trophy from red to blue for Chelsea to get one over their London rivals.

The 2022 final, also contested between Chelsea and Liverpool, ended goalless after 120 minutes with the winners decided from the penalty spot. Each and every outfield player from either team found the back of the net from 12 yards before Kepa Arrizabalaga blazed his effort over the frame of the goal for Liverpool to capture a record 9th EFL Cup title.
