Manchester City ended their rivals United in Carling Cup quarter-final, stack more misery on Mick McCarthy and Wolves with a 5-2 thrashing at Molineux tonight. A pair of goals from Edin Dzeko pace in the Premier League leaders in a game that led the wolves at a time before going three goals in four minutes to complete an epic collapse.
Elsewhere in the evening, led Liverpool Luis Suarez above a rough side Stoke 2-1, shameless hack his head the winner of five to play. Blackburn and Newcastle endured a wild finish as Toon tied the game 2-2 in injury time up until three goals and a penalty saw Rovers take extra time to win 4-3. Finally Everton could not capitalize on the sending off of Chelsea goalkeeper Ross Turnbull, enjoying a man advantage for what turned out to be much more than an hour before losing 2-1 after Daniel Sturridge scored in the last minute of extra time.
The four winners of this evening completed the quarterfinal round, joining United, Arsenal, Crystal Palace and Cardiff. The draw for the quarterfinals on Saturday, with the quarterfinals will be held on 29 and 30 November.
Adam Johnson has brought the city back to a resounding victory, when he was Nenad Milijas Wolves can not lead after just 18 minutes. At four minutes in duration, Johnson scored the equalizer, set up Samir Nasri for the green light to the target, and is fed Edin Dzeko to the winner. It 'was a virtuoso performance from the England midfielder, who has subsequently become a city very rich.
City would score two more, with Dorus De Vries to take credit for a goal from Luca Scapuzzi their after delivery in a dirty game, before Dzeko notched his second serve by Stefan Savic. Jamie O'Hara recovered some pride to the wolves followed the resumption, but despite some clumsy fingers from the city 'backup goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon, this is where we stayed. Ironically, both teams will meet again in the Premier League on Saturday (10:00 Eastern, Fox Sports), this time in San.
In the Britannia, Liverpool looked the better team most of the night, but it was Stoke, who seemed ready to throw a surprise after Kenwyne Jones headed home a beauty in the first attempt of the night potters. This is what happened with just one minute from the end of the first half highlighted the inadequacy of the field - as well as the tenacity Stoke on the back.
But Suarez seems to pick up after the first reboot took a loose ball, jump over the beating and Ryan Shotton post of Thomas Sorensen, near the fatal blow. The winner came when Pepe Reina sent a long ball from the restart which is located in Jordan Henderson, promising midfielder cross the pole Suarez directed the entire body of Sorensen.
Stoke had a right to feel aggrieved by the outcome, having a goal from Jon Walters refused to drive a Queen's ghost. But they also had their chances, and Peter Crouch missed a gilt-edged opportunity to send the game into overtime, when the feet of core close range only ticks on the clock.
Goodison fans certainly could not complain about the lack of enthusiasm tonight, although he had been left by the loss. The fact is that the Toffees have not taken their chances and, despite all sorts of-offs for the Blues, has finished shooting in the foot.
Nicolas Anelka penalty, was 16 minutes, until it was too relaxed, but Jan Mucha was later fired from Salomon Kalou to give easily remembered through the gloves and the network. The hope was brought to Everton when Turnbull was sent away from taking down Louis Saha, but then it was time Leighton Baines Muff football commercials, when Petr Cech saved well.
Everton Saha finally on the table when he nodded home the equalizer just seven minutes to play off the cross Seamus Coleman, Everton set driver's seat. But when the energetic Royston Drenthe was sent off the extra time pointless foul Ryan Bertrand, Chelsea just overwhelmed by homes, which ultimately benefit Sturridge Mucha once again, to send home a rebound off the leaked Florent Malouda has a shot.
Finally, at Ewood Park, it seemed that everything was going to last place in the south of Blackburn after Newcastle scored two goals in two minutes, turning 2-0 deficit to draw 2-2 to force extra time. Ruben Rochin and Yakubu had given Rovers a comfortable lead, but Danny Guthrie and Yohan Cabaye was second only to save Toon level.
In the additional period Rovers Morten Gamst Pedersen return to the top only by Peter Lovenkrands to tie six minutes later when he received a penalty. It was Gael Givet, who headed home the winner in the 120th minute to deal with Newcastle only their first defeat of the season.
Under fire for Rovers, Steve Kean, the result was a huge maybe stopped his execution, while Blackburn shows the fragility of reality. Newcastle was a missed opportunity, but the Classic Cup fans.
