Liverpool beat Chelsea 6-5 on penalties to book a place in the Carabao Cup quarter-final on a dramatic night at Anfield.

The teams had traded goals from the spot in normal time, with Morgan Rogers’ opener cancelled out by Cody Gakpo’s finish from the spot soon after in the final five minutes of the first half as the scoreline finished 1-1 in normal time, as reported by liverpoolfc.com.

However, it was the Reds who would ultimately prevail in front of the Kop, with Joe Gomez’s successful effort followed by a miss from Wesley Fofana to determine the outcome.

At the Etihad holders Manchester City battled back twice before beating Brighton in a rollercoaster penalty shootout to reach the fifth round of the Carabao Cup.

After Mateo Kovačić and Vitor Reis equalised to see the game finish 2-2 after 90 minutes, Gerónimo Rulli saved Brighton’s last two penalties to see us into the next round.

Malick Yalcouye put the visitors ahead in the first half before Kovačić levelled before the break, firing in a low shot from outside the box.

Brighton grabbed a second shortly after the restart through Georginio Rutter and a record Etihad Stadium domestic cup crowd of 55,345 urged us forward to get a second equaliser.

It came with just under 20 minutes remaining when Reis got his first City goal as he flicked in Rayan Cherki’s low free-kick before a dramatic 4-3 win on penalties with Rulli the hero.
