Carabao Cup round-up: Everton side scores for fun; Newcastle got 7 goals; plus other results

 Fleetwood vs Everton

Everton are enjoying life under Carlo Ancelotti as they stretched their unbeaten record for the season to four games after beating Fleetwood in a lively Carabao Cup game to set up a fourth-round tie against West Ham.

Richarlison scored the first two goals of the night: a header and then the second one after a one-two with Alex Iwobi.

The League One side got one back through Mark Duffy but Iwobi swept home from eight yards a minute later.

Callum Camps then scored a bicycle kick for Joey Barton’s side before Bernard and Moise Kean killed the game off.

Everton might have scored 5 goals but they conceded two questionable goals, and certainly Everton and England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford’s performance would be reviewed again.

His pass to half-time substitute Duffy let hosts Fleetwood score their opener and Camps’ overhead kick was straight at him.

Newcastle United knocks seven past Morecambe

Joelinton’s brace helped Newcastle in their 7-0 demolition of 10-man Morecambe in the Carabao Cup third round.

Steve Bruce’s men emphatically booked a fourth-round trip to Newport to redeem their weekend dismal performance against Brighton.

Morecambe had a man sent off for a cynical challenge in the first half, which saw Newcastle score 5 goals.

There were plenty of big names on display despite Bruce’s nine changes in Lancashire, where £40m signing Joelinton gave the visitors an early lead.

Miguel Almiron rounded the goalkeeper to score the second before Jacob Murphy curled home and then Joelinton scored a screamer from distance to make it 4-0.
