Key takeaways: 

• Liverpool lifted the FA Cup for the eighth time in the club's past.
• After prevailing in the FA Cup, Liverpool stays in the quest for a historic quadruple following another Wembley penalty shootout against Chelsea.

In February, Jurgen Klopp's team replicated their Carabao Cup final win, the decisive moment when Liverpool goalie Alisson blocked Mason Mount's spot-kick, leaving Kostas Tsimikas to reserve Liverpool's second title for the season.

The Reds are still in the Premier League title race and have the Champions League final against Real Madrid.

Liverpool had the sounder of an eventful final, with the impressive Luis Diaz and Andrew Robertson striking the woodwork. However, it may come at a cost with Mohamed Salah wounded in the first half and Virgil van Dijk going off after 90 minutes.

It is devastating for Chelsea and boss Thomas Tuchel to lose yet again. With Marcos Alonso striking the post and being denied by Alisson, they had opportunities but became the first team to lose three consecutive FA Cup finals.

Liverpool come through again

When Edouard Mendy held Senegal team-mate Sadio Mane's penalty in the shootout, when the Liverpool winger was only required to the net to win the FA Cup, it seemed that the Reds' attack on four titles might just be interrupted.

When he saved from Mount, Alisson placed Liverpool back on course, which was inconsolable as Tsimikas shipped the Liverpool fans wild by converting the final penalty.
