Manchester United and Arsenal disappoint and end up in the round of 16 of the English League Cup

Six matches of the round of 16 of the English League Cup took place this Tuesday afternoon. While some teams got the results they needed, others were left out of the next stage. Liverpool and Chelsea won their respective matches and qualified for the quarter-finals, while Arsenal and Manchester United disappointed and were eliminated from the competition.

Arsenal and Manchester United have fallen into oblivion

Arsenal were the first team to fall by the wayside in the English League Cup this Tuesday. With a mixed team, the Gunners failed to overcome West Ham’s pressure at London’s Olympic Stadium and were eliminated after losing 3-1: Ben White (own goal), Mohamed Kudus and Bowen scored goals for the team home. Odegaard pulled one back for the visitors.

Although Arsenal had two Brazilians on the pitch (Gabriel Magalhães starting and Gabriel Martinelli in the second half), the one who stood out the most was West Ham’s Lucas Paquetá. victory. Also on the Gunners’ side, injured Gabriel Jesus was not listed for the clash.

In a rematch of last season’s final, Manchester United faced Newcastle at Old Trafford. If on that occasion the Red Devils had the upper hand, this time it was the guests who emerged victorious. The “Magpies” won 3-0, with goals from Almirón, Lewis Hall and Willock.

United had two Brazilians on the pitch. Casemiro and Antony were starters in their respective roles in the team chosen by coach Erik Ten Hag. Both, however, did not play well. The steering wheel was even replaced shortly after the break. On the other side, Bruno Guimarães and Joelinton entered the second phase.

Liverpool and Chelsea advance to the quarter-finals

Liverpool visited Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium. Despite having practically all the substitutes, the Reds win 2-1: Cody Gakpo opens the scoring and Justin Kluivert leaves everything the same. Darwin Nuñez came on in the second half and scored for the visitors.

Chelsea, in turn, handled the duel against Blackburn with ease. The Blues beat their opponents 2-0, with goals from Badiashile and Sterling, at Stamford Bridge.

Everton and Fulham also paid no attention to their rivals and advanced to the next stage. The Toffees beat Burnley 3-0, with goals from Tarkowski, Onana and Young. Fulham beat Ipswich Town 3 to 1. Wilson, Muniz and Cairney scored the team’s goals, while Bagott scored for Ipswich.
