Ties to be played on 9 and 10 November

Hahahaha, sc unthorpe

Live text commentary of five Capital One Cup fourth-round ties, including Arsenal against Chelsea and Man Utd versus Norwich.

 

GOAL - Leicester 0-1 Fulham - Hugo Rodallega

 

Hang on... Fulham have not just had a shot... they have only gone and scored too. Damian Duff finds Huga Rodallega, who beats the offside trap to sidefoot home.

 

GOAL- Birmingham 0-1 Stoke - Oussama Assaidi (10 mins)

 

Our first goal of the night, and Oussama Assaidi's first goal for Stoke. The Moroccan, who is on loan from Liverpool, lets fly with a real humdinger that flies past Colin Doyle and into the net via the woodwork.

GOAL- Man Utd 1-0 Norwich - Javier Hernandez (20 mins, pen)

 

The goals are flying in now. Adnan Januzaj goes down under a challenge from Leroy Fer and referee Kevin Friend points to the spot. Javier Hernandez will take it for United... and he makes no mistake, finding the bottom left-hand corner of the net.

GOAL- Arsenal 0-1 Chelsea - Cesar Azpilicueta (25 mins)

 

This is some break by Chelsea, who rip Arsenal apart. The Blues pour forward from a corner and when Aaron Ramsey challenges Michael Essien, the ball spins up and Carl Jenkinson makes a hash of his attempted back-header.

 

That allows Cesar Azpilicueta, who has not stopped running from his own area, to poke it past the onrushing Lukasz Fabianski. That's Azpilicueta's reward for persevering.

GOAL- Birmingham 1-1 Stoke - Tom Adeyemi (28 mins)

 

St Andrew's erupts into a cacophony of noise as the hosts pull level. A quick breakaway sees Nikola Zigic work the ball to Lee Novak in the box and the former Huddersfield striker selflessly picks out the onrushing Tom Adeyemi, who calmly slots the ball past Thomas Sorensen.

GOAL- Leicester 1-1 Fulham - Wes Morgan (41 mins)

 

Leicester are level and Maarten Stekelenburg will not enjoy watching replays of this one. The Fulham keeper makes a hash of his attempt to push away an Anthony Knockaert free-kick and Wes Morgan heads the dropping ball past him and into the net.

GOAL- Leicester 2-1 Fulham - Chris Wood (45 mins)

 

Quite a turnaround at the King Power. Paul Konchesky plays in Chris Wood, Leicester's hat-trick hero against Carlisle in the last round, and he runs through to put the Championship side ahead. That was too easy, especially from Fulham's point of view. Worth mentioning Konchesky does not celebrate against his old club.

GOAL- Leicester 3-1 Fulham - Ignasi Miquel (53 mins)

 

The Foxes have breathing space. Ignasi Miquel is unmarked in the box and powers home a bullet header from a Danny Drinkwater cross.

GOAL - Leicester 3-2 Fulham - Hugo Rodallega (54 mins)

 

The Foxes no longer have breathing space. Elsad Zverotic's cross finds Hugo Rodallega who is unmarked and finds the net with a powerful header. Quite similar to that last Leicester goal, actually.

GOAL - Man Utd 2-0 Norwich - Javier Hernandez (54 mins)

 

Just when Norwich were starting to improve... this. Alex Buttner crosses from the left and Javier Hernandez heads home his second goal of the game, at the second attempt. Mark Bunn saved his first effort.

GOAL - Arsenal 0-2 Chelsea - Juan Mata (66 mins)

 

That Arsenal substitution has an impact, but at the other end. This is a special goal too, with Juan Mata meeting a dropping ball near the left-hand edge of the area and darting goalwards before smashing an unstoppable shot into the opposite top corner of the net. Chelsea have one foot in the last eight, although Arsenal's reaction is to make another change - Olivier Giroud for the ineffective Nicklas Bendtner.

GOAL - Birmingham 1-2 Stoke - Peter Crouch

 

Stoke are back in front. Marc Muniesa crosses from the right and Peter Crouch places his header beyond Colin Doyle and just inside the far post. A class finish from the big man. He scored on Saturday as well, so he is on fire at the moment.

Come on Stoke!

Come on Stoke!

GOAL - Birmingham 1-3 Stoke - Marko Arnautovic (71 mins)

 

This is a classy finish by Marko Arnautovic, sidefooting home from the edge of the area after good work - and a good cross - from Steven N'Zonzi. Stoke are 15 minutes away from a place in the quarter-finals.

GOAL - Burnley 0-1 West Ham - Matt Taylor, pen (76 mins)

 

I told you a goal was coming, and it is West Ham who get it. Jason Shackell fouls Kevin Nolan in the box and Matt Taylor calmly places the resulting penalty into the net. Burnley have got less than 15 minutes to find an equaliser.

Poor Burnley

boo

 

GOAL - Birmingham 2-3 Stoke

 

Hands up who wants a tense finish at St Andrew's? You got it. Peter Lovenkrands gets on the end of a lofted ball into the box and the Blues are back in it.

GOAL - Leicester 3-3 Fulham - Giorgos Karagounis (87 mins)

 

Er, ignore what I said at 2128 because Fulham are level. And how. An absolute rocket of a free-kick from Giorgos Karagounis flies past Kasper Schmeichel. Extra-time suddenly beckons us at the King Power Stadium.

GOAL - Man Utd 3-0 Norwich - Phil Jones (88 mins)

 

Confirmation that United are safely into the quarter-finals. Javier Hernandnez meets Adnan Januzaj's cross and sets up Phil Jones to flash in a first-time finish. Game over.

GOAL - Leicester 4-3 Fulham - Lloyd Dyer (89 mins)

 

Actually, you should ignore what I said at 2130. Leicester are back in front in dramatic circumstances as David Nugent, who has just come off the bench, tees up Lloyd Dyer to restore the Foxes' lead.

GOAL - Burnley 0-2 West Ham - Jack Collison (pen)

 

No way back for Burnley now. Keith Treacy fouls Jack Collison in the area and the Welshman steps up to fire home the resulting spot-kick himself.
