Liverpool Out Of Carabao Cup







Chelsea Maestro, Eden Hazard scored a stunning late winner as Chelsea rattled back from a goal down to put an end to Liverpool's wonderful start to the season and their hopes of quadruple.



Hazard came on in the second half, although his impact was not felt for most of it, abruptly came into action by beating a defender and putting the ball into the far corner.

Chelsea were by far the better side in the first half with Alvaro Morata dragging a shot across the goalline and also nodded a free header over the crossbar.

The Premier League table toppers Liverpool, who had won all seven matches this season, broke the deadlock through Daniel Sturridge's well-executed strike, just minutes he missed a completely open net.

Chelsea equalized through Emerson Palmieri's close range strike which required Video Assistant Referee (VAR) intervention to check for offside before awarding the goal.

Liverpool will be hoping for a revenge when the two teams lock horns again in the league on Saturday. The fourth-round draw is scheduled for same day at 21:00 BST.
