Dalglish led his team to a victory by the narrowest of margins, 3-2 on penalties after a 2-2 draw.
“We are delighted to have won a trophy. It was a difficult game and I thought Cardiff represented their club very well. They tried everything.
“We deserved our first trophy in six years but we need to continue to work hard and see where it takes us. We didn’t think six years ago that it would take this long to win our next trophy. We have won it, we will really enjoy it and it will give us a flavour to come back and do it again.”
