Everton swept into the League Cup quarter-finals with a 3-1 win against Newcastle on Thursday as they booked a clash against giant-killers Fleetwood.
David Moyes’s side took the lead through James Garner’s first-half goal at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Hayden Hackney doubled the lead with his first goal since his close-season move from Middlesbrough. Everton striker Thierno Barry netted in the second half and Dan Burn’s reply for Newcastle came far too late to stop the Toffees ending their three-match winless run. Chasing their first League Cup final appearance in 43 years, Everton will travel to fourth-tier minnows Fleetwood in the week commencing December 14. The ‘Cod Army’ caused one of the biggest shocks in League Cup history on Tuesday when they beat Premier League champions Arsenal in a penalty shoot-out after a 1-1 draw at Highbury.
