Sheffield United had reached the semi-finals when they knocked out Southampton at Bramall Lane while Tottenham had thrashed Newcastle United 4-0.

Look forward to playing Chelsea: Rodgers
Speaking after the quarter-final win, Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers said: “It will be a fantastic tie.
“If you want to win this competition you have to play against the good sides. The most important thing was getting through but our performance was brilliant.
“We’re into the semi-final, it’s over two legs and it didn’t matter who we got. We needed to get there, it’s Chelsea and we look forward to it,” he concluded.
