Everton 3-1 Newcastle: Toffees see off visitors to set up Carabao Cup quarter-final with Fleetwood Town

Report and free match highlights from the Carabao Cup fourth-round tie between Everton and Newcastle United at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Thursday night; Toffees see off Magpies to set up tie with Fleetwood Town.

Everton are through to the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup after seeing off Newcastle 3-1.

James Garner, Hayden Hackney and Thierno Barry were all on the scoresheet at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Thursday night. Dan Burn netted a late consolation for Newcastle.

The Toffees will head to Fleetwood Town in the last eight in December, after the League Two side's epic win over Arsenal earlier in the week.

It provides Everton with a real opportunity of reaching a first cup semi-final since 2016.

Grealish dropped due to disciplanary breach

Everton announced before the game that Jack Grealish had been dropped due to a disciplinary breach. It was reporter that the Man City loanee had missed a training session earlier in the week.

The hosts found the lead from nothing on 34 minutes. Tyrique George's pressure saw Amar Dedic lose the ball on the sidelines. Hackney then flicked the ball into Garner, who finessed a shot into the bottom corner.

On the stroke of half-time it was 2-0. Hackney turned scorer this time as he guided home from Barry's cross, to claim his first goal for the club.

And then it was Barry's time on 69 minutes, finishing up a clinical counter-attack with some fine movement and a cool finish after picking up Kieran Dewsbury-Hall's pass.

Burn headed in late on for Newcastle, but it was too little, too late.

The key moments from the Hill Dickinson Stadium

12: CHANCE! Gonzalez picks out the smart run of Barnes down the left. The winger ghosts in behind Rohl to head towards goal but he draws a save from Pickford instead.

34: GOAL! Garner applies some finesse on his finish to put Everton ahead. It comes from nothing. Dedic loses it near the corner flag, under pressure from George. Hackney finds Garner with a neat pass and the Everton midfielder curls home.

45: GOAL! HACKNEY GUIDES HOME HIS FIRST EVERTON GOAL! It all starts from a Newcastle opportunity. Barnes' effort takes a nick, and Pickford gathers before starting an Everton counter. Dewsbury-Hall leads the charge forward before being taken out. Advantage is played and Barry keeps going, taking the ball wide before digging out a cross for Hackney to see home.

69: GOAL! NEWCASTLE ARE SLICED OPEN BY EVERTON. Garner carries the ball up the field and feeds Dewsbury-Hall. He continues the charge down the left, pulling back a cross into the area. Barry has all the time in the world in the Newcastle box to compose himself and fire into the top corner.

89: GOAL! Burn heads in to give his side a consolation. Willock swings a ball into the area and Burn, high up the field, beats O'Brien to the ball. Burn is then booked, along with Joelinton and Tarkowski for some pushing and shoving after the goal.
