Yahoo News When is the Carabao Cup quarter-final draw? Date, start time, how to watch, fixture dates, ball numbers today
Manchester City’s dominance of the Carabao Cup has come to an end after they were knocked out of the competition on penalties by West Ham this week - with fellow London sides Arsenal and Chelsea also still in the hat.
The Gunners’ path into the last eight was much smoother than that of their London rivals, with second-half goals from Calum Chambers and Eddie Nketiah sealing a routine 2-0 win over Leeds.
Chelsea looked to be on course for victory against Southampton after Kai Havertz’s goal before the break, but Che Adams hit back and forced a penalty shootout, with Reece James striking the decisive spot-kick after costly misses from Theo Walcott and Will Smallbone.
There was no such joy for QPR, who were bested by League One Sunderland on penalties after a goalless draw.
Like West Ham, Leicester also relied on spot-kicks to knock out Brighton.
Tottenham beat Burnley with a Lucas Moura header and there were wins for Liverpool and Brentford.
