moments into the second half as Valentino Lazaro netted. But Matt Phillips pulled one back for West Brom
on 74 minutes to give the home fans hope.
Kenneth Zohore’s goal in added time came too late, however, and Newcastle advanced 3-2 at the Baggies’
expense.
Meanwhile, Sheffield United were taken into extra-time by another Championship side, with Reading’s
George Puscas canceling out David McGoldrick’s early opener before a dramatic finish ensued at the
Madjski Stadium.
Puscas successfully converted a spot-kick shortly before half-time, and a goalless second half meant an extra
30 minutes’ play.
Billy Sharp settled the tie in added time of the first half of extra-time, condemning Reading to a 2-1 defeat
despite a solid performance from the home side.
Elsewhere, Chelsea eliminated Liverpool from the competition with a 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge, ending
the visitors’ hopes of a treble.
