Honours for Manchester City, Wolves - and Watford! It's the team of the week

Liverpool finally beaten and their conquerors earn the accolades

Goalkeeper: Tim Krul (Norwich City) – Has had a terrific season and several saves helped Norwich to a shock win over Leicester to revive their survival hopes. Reuters

Right-back: Matt Doherty (Wolves) – The marauding wing-back scored one goal and helped make another as Wolves came from behind to beat Tottenham in a thriller. AFP

Centre-back: Fernandinho (Manchester City) – The makeshift centre-back was the best player on the pitch as City beat Aston Villa to win his fifth League Cup. AP

Centre-back: Gary Cahill (Crystal Palace) – A rock at the back as Palace all but ensured survival with a victory over Brighton. One of the signings of the season. Reuters

Left-back: Marcos Alonso (Chelsea) – Showed his predatory prowess with a brace at Bournemouth. Scored as many goals in eight days as Chelsea’s strikers have in 2020. AFP

Right midfield: Ismaila Sarr (Watford) – One of the individual performances of the season to produce the campaign’s shock result. Scored twice and set up one goal against Liverpool. Reuters

Centre midfield: Abdoulaye Doucoure (Watford) – A revelation under Nigel Pearson, he helped Watford overpower Liverpool to end their hopes of becoming Invincibles. Reuters

So it's over. After 44 games unbeaten, Liverpool are finally conquered, and by Watford of all teams.

Liverpool will still be champions as they enjoy a 22 point lead, but Watford's future is very uncertain. The incredible 3-0 win lifted them out of the relegation zone, but only on goal difference. It will be a tense final ten games for Nigel Pearson's team.

Elsewhere, there was a dramatic win for Wolves at Tottenham, and the Midlands side now have a realistic chance of sneaking into the Champions League places.

Manchester City claimed their third League Cup trophy in succession with the win over Aston Villa. Their attention now turns to the Chamnpions League after the amazing win at Real Madrid.
