Southampton – West Ham 3: 1, Souček did not finish due to a head injury! West Ham ends the cup

The 27-year-old Souček, who decided in the last league duel to win 1-0 over Wolverhampton, could also open the score against Southampton. His shot in the 10th minute flew out. The ninth team of the English Southampton League took the lead after half an hour of play thanks to Perraud. It was the French defender’s first shot since his arrival in Brest.

Souček suffered a bloody head injury at the beginning of the second half after a fight with Dial and had to leave the field in the 54th minute. Benrahma took his place.

Although West Ham settled six minutes later, when Antonio prevailed, the London team still failed to win the duel. In the 68th minute, Southampton got the advantage of a penalty kick after Dawson’s intervention and returned it to the “Saints” lead Ward-Prowse. In the end, he insured the progress of the locals of Broj.

Chelsea collected on the pitch of the second-league Luton after only a minute and 42 seconds, when Burke prevailed. The London team has not scored faster this season. The “Blues” leveled in the 27th minute after a hit by Saúl, who scored the first goal for Chelsea since arriving from Atlética Madrid. Until the break, Luton gained the advantage, but again, for which he scored five minutes before the end of Cornick’s first half.

The favored Chelsea pushed the opponent in the second part and eventually turned the result around. Werner called in the 68th minute and Lukak turned ten minutes later.

The recent winner of the Liverpool League Cup decided to advance among the eight best teams in the first half, when Minamino won twice. The Japanese forward has scored eight goals for the “Reds” in League and English Cup matches. Although the guests reduced a quarter of an hour before the end after the Rupp hit, they could no longer do more on the field.
