Chelsea advanced to the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup in a thrilling manner, defeating Newcastle 4-2 in a penalty shootout after securing a late 1-1 draw.
Newcastle seemed poised for victory after Callum Wilson scored in the 16th minute, but Chelsea mounted a comeback in stoppage time with Mykhailo Mudryk finding the back of the net. The match ultimately went to penalties, where Kieran Trippier and Matt Ritchie missed from twelve yards, giving Chelsea the win.
