In the Carling Cup tournament, it seems that surprises are not over yet. Up until the quarterfinal, the leader of the IV Division club "Wycombe" managed to overcome this barrier, defeating the bottom team of the Premier League "Charlton" with a minimal result as guests. Meanwhile, the other evening match between "Liverpool" and "Arsenal," which raised a lot of intrigue, did not take place due to thick smoke at the "Anfield" stadium.
"Charlton" 0 – 1 "Wycombe" 35‘ [0 – 1] Jermaine Easter
The hosts started the match as if dazed, and the visitors sensed this and gradually began to threaten their goal. Initially, Jermaine Easter's and Tommy Mooney's attempts from several meters did not hit the target, but at 35 minutes, a wonderful goal was scored. J. Easter sent the ball into Scottish Carson's goal with a superb shot from 25 meters – 0-1.

After the break, the hosts dominated the field, but they fatally failed to equalize the result. Great chances were wasted by Darren Bent and Matthew Holland. "Wycombe" defended well and for the first time in their history reached the semifinals of the Carling Cup.
On Wednesday, in the other quarter-final matches, "Newcastle" will face "Chelsea," and "Tottenham" will play against "Man Utd" who eliminated the "Southend" team.
