Liverpool Scrape Through League Cup

 

The last of the Quarter-Finals of the Carabao/League Cup have now been played. We already know that Arsenal are through to the Semi-Finals but who will join them. Well out of the six teams that we had playing, three have made it through. They are CHELSEA who won 2-0 away to BRENTFORD. Chelsea are on a total of 43 goals while Brentford picked up their fifth blank of the season. LIVERPOOL drew 3-3 at home to LEICESTER CITY and as there are no extra time, because of Covid, Liverpool won 5-4 on penalties. Liverpool have kept their 100% scoring record going after a total of twenty-one league and Cup games. They are now on a total of 58 goals. Leicester have taken their goals tally to 34. TOTTENHAM won 2-1 against London rivals WEST HAM. Tottenham are on a total of 23 goals as West Ham picked up goal number 30. 

In the Scottish Premiership CELTIC failed to catch up on top of the table Rangers who are now six points in front of them, after they drew 0-0 away to St Mirren. That is Celtic’s fourth blank of the season after a goal run of eight games. ABERDEEN lost 1-0 away to Hibernian and they have now had a total of five blank score sheets.
