Jordan Pickford rages at Everton team-mate as Fulham supporters get it wrong on Alex Iwobi
Everton's Carabao Cup run came to a heartbreaking end against Fulham at the quarter-final stage on Tuesday night.
After the tie finished 1-1, the Blues were beaten 7-6 on penalties. Tosin Adarabioyo stepped up in sudden death after Idrissa Gueye struck the post and rolled home to send the Cottagers through to their first domestic semi-final in 22 seasons.
But before that, Marco Silva’s side had taken the lead during the first-half when Michael Keane deflected the ball past Jordan Pickford and into his own net. The Blues pushed for an equaliser, and with eight minutes of normal time remaining, Beto managed to head past Bernd Leno.

But when Gueye struck the post, centre-back Adarabioyo kept his cool to send his side’s supporters wild, and below is a round-up of some of the moments you may have missed from the game.
