Liverpool's six-year trophy drought ended Sunday after beating Cardiff 3-2 in a penalty shootout when Reds captain Steven Gerrard's cousin, Anthony Gerrard, missed the final spot kick.
The match finished at 1-1 after 90 minutes and 2-2 after extra time, with Cardiff's Ben Turner scrambling the ball over the line in the 118th to send the match into a shootout.
Cardiff led through Joe Mason's 19th-minute goal, before Martin Skrtel levelled for Liverpool on the hour to force the game into extra time.
Dirk Kuyt put Liverpool in front in the 108th minute, smashing in the rebound after his initial effort was blocked by Cardiff's Gerrard.
