Liverpool booked their place in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals after beating Chelsea 6-5 on penalties following a 1-1 draw at Anfield.
Morgan Rogers put Chelsea ahead from the penalty spot five minutes before half-time before Cody Gakpo responded with a spot-kick of his own just three minutes later to level the tie.
Neither side was able to find a decisive second goal, meaning the tie went straight to penalties.
Liverpool eventually held their nerve to win 6-5 after a dramatic shoot-out in which both sides spurned opportunities to win it, sealing their place in the last eight.
