Ibrahima Konate was subjected to some late drama beyond the on-pitch proceedings of Liverpool’s Carabao Cup final clash with Chelsea.
As the Reds celebrated with the trophy, the Frenchman was spotted nearly choking on a piece of confetti before quickly removing the offending item from his mouth.
The Merseysiders secured the League Cup courtesy of Caoimhin Kelleher’s winning spot-kick, with the Irishman’s effort not matched by his opposite No.1, Kepa Arrizabalaga.
