Man United Gears Up for Carabao Cup Entry…
Get ready for the Carabao Cup second round draw this week as Manchester United makes its entry, following a surprising 15th-place finish. Think of them as unicorns showing up at a horse race: rare, unexpected, and probably there for the popcorn! Joining United are 10 other Premier League teams that missed out on European football last season, entering alongside the victorious clubs from the first-round brawls involving Championship, League One, and League Two squads. Liverpool, still savoring a spoonful of “almost” from last year’s final, aims to bring home the silverware this time.
The second-round draw is scheduled for Wednesday, August 13, live at Birmingham City’s cozy haven of St Andrews. Picture it as the World Cup draw but with more tea and crumpets! Catch the live action on Sky Sports or, if your couch has been mysteriously glued to the floor again, enjoy it for free. Top-tier teams involved in European fixtures this year, like Liverpool and Manchester City, will jump in later for the third round. Until then, fans can dream of dramatic cup runs; just hoping their team’s road doesn’t end like a soap opera cliffhanger!
