Using cached dependencies for pipelines in Azure Devops

I want to avoid maven downloading all dependencies from a remote repository in all build

I configured a cache, but all executions still download all dependencies.

azure-pipelines.yml

trigger:
- master

pool:
  vmImage: 'ubuntu-latest'

variables:
  MAVEN_CACHE_FOLDER: $(Pipeline.Workspace)/.m2/repository
  MAVEN_OPTS: '-Dmaven.repo.local=$(MAVEN_CACHE_FOLDER)'

steps:
- task: Maven@3
  inputs:
    mavenPomFile: 'pom.xml'
    mavenOptions: '-Xmx3072m'
    javaHomeOption: 'JDKVersion'
    jdkVersionOption: '1.8'
    jdkArchitectureOption: 'x64'
    publishJUnitResults: true
    testResultsFiles: '**/surefire-reports/TEST-*.xml'
    goals: 'clean package'
    codeCoverageToolOption: JaCoCo
    sonarQubeRunAnalysis: false
- task: PublishPipelineArtifact@1
  inputs:
    targetPath: '$(Pipeline.Workspace)'
    publishLocation: 'pipeline'
- task: Cache@2
  inputs:
    key: 'maven | "$(Agent.OS)" | **/pom.xml'
    restoreKeys: |
      maven | "$(Agent.OS)"
      maven
    path: $(MAVEN_CACHE_FOLDER)
  displayName: Cache Maven local repo

- script: mvn install -B -e

I forgot to add a MAVEN_OPTS variable in mavenOptions:

mavenOptions: '-Xmx3072m $(MAVEN_OPTS)'

My pipeline.yml stayed like this:

trigger:
- master

pool:
  vmImage: 'ubuntu-latest'

variables:
  MAVEN_CACHE_FOLDER: $(Pipeline.Workspace)/.m2/repository
  MAVEN_OPTS: '-Dmaven.repo.local=$(MAVEN_CACHE_FOLDER)'

steps:

- task: Cache@2
  inputs:
    key: 'maven | "$(Agent.OS)" | **/pom.xml'
    restoreKeys: |
      maven | "$(Agent.OS)"
      maven
    path: $(MAVEN_CACHE_FOLDER)
  displayName: Cache Maven local repo

- task: Maven@3
  inputs:
    mavenPomFile: 'pom.xml'
    mavenOptions: '-Xmx3072m $(MAVEN_OPTS)'
    javaHomeOption: 'JDKVersion'
    jdkVersionOption: '1.8'
    jdkArchitectureOption: 'x64'
    publishJUnitResults: true
    testResultsFiles: '**/surefire-reports/TEST-*.xml'
    goals: 'clean package'
    codeCoverageToolOption: JaCoCo
    sonarQubeRunAnalysis: false
- task: PublishPipelineArtifact@1
  inputs:
    targetPath: '$(Pipeline.Workspace)'
    publishLocation: 'pipeline'

- script: mvn install -B -e
