Southampton and Brentford are the first two teams to qualify for the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup, the English League Cup. The Saints beat Stoke 3-2: a crazy match at the St. Mary’s Stadium, where the guests recovered two goals but gave in two minutes from the end, when Bree scored the decisive goal. The match between Brentford and Sheffield Wed. was even more balanced, ending in penalties: 5 out of 5 for the hosts, while Palmer missed the last shot for the guests.
