Surprise Loss for The Merseyside Club The Eagles produced a commanding three-nil win against their hosts, completing a remarkable triple of successes against the Anfield outfit in the last few months.

Away supporters could be heard playfully chanting, "Shall we play you every week?" Historic Chance for The Eagles Although the club's current successes, they have never reached the final of this competition, having fallen at the last-four phase on 4 previous times.

Chelsea also advanced, showing their intent in the competition. Newcastle United were among the qualifiers, adding further intrigue to the competition.
