Liverpool survives Cup scare
Print Edition
LIVERPOOL survived an almighty scare in the League Cup by edging fourth-tier Carlisle United on penalties, while Sheffield Wednesday dumped Newcastle United out of the tournament.
Carlisle, the lowest-ranked team in the competition, took Liverpool to penalties at Anfield after the game finished 1-1 following extra time, Derek Asamoah having cancelled out Danny Ings’ 23rd-minute opener.
Adam Lallana and Philippe Coutinho both saw penalties saved by Mark Gillespie, but reserve goalkeeper Adam Bogdan parried the decisive spot-kick from Carlisle’s French forward Bastien Hery to earn Liverpool a 3-2 shootout win.
Liverpool followed Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United and Manchester City in going through and will host Bournemouth in round four.
Newcastle, which has won none of its first five Premier League games, lost 0-1 at home to Championship side. Lewis McGugan scored the only goal, beating Newcastle goalkeeper Tim Krul with a low shot from outside the box in the 76th minute to send Wednesday into round four for the first time since it reached the semifinals in 2001-02.
Wednesday’s reward was a home tie with Arsenal, which overcame Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 in the north London derby thanks to a brace from unlikely match-winner Mathieu Flamini.
Chelsea continued its recent revival by winning 4-1 at third-tier Walsall to record a third consecutive victory.
Anthony Martial’s assured start to life at Manchester United continued as the French striker scored his fourth goal in three games in a 3-0 victory against second-tier Ipswich Town.
