C. Gakpo Carabao Cup, Brighton vs Liverpool<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

GOAL rates all of the Reds on show as the Dutchman helped himself to another two goals to see the champions through to the last eight<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just call Cody Gakpo the King of the Carabao Cup! The Dutchman’s double helped Liverpool kick-off their title defence with a 5-1 rout of West Ham at the tail end of September, and he bagged another brace in Wednesday’s 3-2 fourth-round win at Brighton, meaning he now has eight goals in the competition since the start of last season.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gakpo’s 46th-minute opener at the Amex was a stunner, with the versatile winger cutting inside onto his favoured right foot before whipping the ball past Jason Steele from the left-hand side of the area. Gakpo struck again midway through the second half, this time rifling home after pouncing on some sloppy play from Tariq Lamptey.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brighton pulled a goal back with 10 minutes to go through Simon Adingra, but Arne Slot’s side promptly restored their two-goal advantage thanks to Luis Diaz – which was just as well for the visitors, as Lamptey’s deflected effort found its way past Vitezslav Jaros in the final minute.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
