Despite taking lots of critizism in recent week, Dejan Lovran and Mario Balotelli were the stars for Liverpool last night.

The Reds trailed Swansea 1-0 in the League cup with just four minutes remaining, before Mario Balotelli poked home.

Dejan Lovren then put Liverpool into the last eight with a 95th minute header.

Chelsea's unbeaten start to the season nearly came to an end, from the most unlikely of sources.

The Blues League Cup tie away to League 2 side Shrewsbury Town looked set for extra time, as Andy Mangan cancelled out Didier Drogba's opener, until an own goal late on put Chelsea through to the quarter finals.

Elsewhere, Sheffield United reached the next round with a 2-1 away win over the MK Dons.

And Derby County beat Fulham 5-2 at Craven Cottage.

Irish International Jeff Hendrick got on the score sheet for the Rams in that one.

And the upset of the night came at the Goldsands Stadium, as Championship side Bournmouth dumped out West Brom by two goals to one.
