The London team, which until Sunday was dressed in its classic white suit, took the lead against Liverpool early after Harry Kane sent in 1-0 in the 13th minute.
Only a short while later, the striker continued to be the main character.
The 28-year-old bet heavily and slid tackled Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson with the studs ahead - and had to call a yellow card.
That made Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool's coach, turn on when he wanted the Tottenham player sent off.
He was furious at the sideline and was given a warning after protests.
- It's a red card, absolutely.
It's definitely a red card.
His legs were in the air, and it was pure coincidence.
Because Andy still has his foot in the ground where he breaks his leg.
There is nothing to discuss, says Jürgen Klopp to Sky Sports.
"What did he do in that situation?"
The same Robertson himself clumsily stepped into a duel with the home team's defender Emerson and received, after a video review, a red card.
- Okay, the judge VAR-checked the situation with Robertson, but what did he do in this situation?
Klopp asks himself.
- I have no idea what his (judge's) problem is with me.
I'm emotional during the match, but I do not know what he felt when he came over and gave me a yellow card.
I would have preferred the right decision to be made on the pitch.
An objective judge who makes the decisions.
But you can ask him what his problem is with me.
"I was not worried"
Goal scorer Kane, however, believes that in the mentioned situation he took the ball.
- I was not worried.
"I was actually quite surprised to be warned to be honest," Kane told the BBC.
The final score of this cup final was 2-2.
In addition to Kane, Heung Min Son scored a goal for the home team and Liverpool's goal was scored by Diogo Jota and Robertson.
