Charlie Austin
Everton were level for just five minutes.
It's Charlie Austin again for QPR, bagging his second of the night by flicking home a header towards the far post following Ilyas Chair's cross.
The ex-Southampton striker is now on a hat-trick.
Man City 1-1 Wycombe
Are Manchester City finding their groove now?
Raheem Sterling curls a shot off the inside of the post from about 25 yards. It hits the back of goalkeeper David Stockdale but stays out.
Norwich 0-1 Liverpool
Big chance!
Norwich play some lovely stuff down the left to set up Adam Idah in the box for a shot that he puts too close to Caoimhin Kelleher.
Lucas Digne
Everton hit back.
Skipper Lucas Digne ghosts in behind and converts a first-time finish in at the near post.
The goalkeeper might feel he could have done better, the ball somehow squeezes in.
Fulham 0-0 Leeds
Don Hutchison
Ex-Liverpool midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live
I'm not worried about Leeds in the Premier League this season. They'll be fine.
They're just conceding too many goals at the moment.
Fulham 0-0 Leeds
Leeds looking the more likely at Craven Cottage. Daniel James sets up Tyler Roberts but the home side get a foot in to deny the forward a pop at goal.
Nathan Broadhead
The visitors lead.
What a beauty from Nathan Broadhead, cutting in from the left and curling a delightful finish into the bottom corner.
Sheffield Utd 1-1 Southampton
How does he miss??
Iliman Ndiaye somehow wriggles through a number of challenges and is then one on one with Fraser Forster but rolls his shot wide.
Kevin de Bruyne (29 mins)
Manchester City's midfield star combine and they're level.
Phil Foden dances past a couple of challenges near the centre circle and feeds Kevin de Bruyne on the left.
He cuts inside and fires the ball across the Wycombe keeper into the back of the net.
Norwich 0-1 Liverpool
Just small signs that Norwich think there is something here for them if they can get it right. Christoph Tzolis is central to it. He's finding space and looking lively. End product, though. It is all about the end product.
Norwich 0-1 Liverpool
Christoph Tzolis needs to do better. He gathers the ball in space on the left but with players there to be picked out in the middle he drives his cross right into the midriff of Reds keeper Caoimhin Kelleher.
Andrew Hughes (25 mins)
Andrew Hughes powers a header home from a Ben Whiteman corner and Preston lead.
Nick Powell
Breakthrough for the Championship side.
Skipper Nick Powell slots in from a couple of yards out after brilliant play by Alfie Doughty down the left, keeping the ball in providing the assist.
Man City 0-1 Wycombe
Manchester City have won the past four EFL Cups. Manchester United are the only team to beat them in the tournament since January 2016.
Wycombe haven't won an EFL Cup game in 90 minutes since 2006.
Norwich 0-1 Liverpool
Kaide Gordon, as billed, looks a very useful little player for Liverpool. He drags the ball inside from the right and then fires a low shot just past the near post.
Ibrahima Diallo
All square at Bramall Lane as Ibrahima Diallo levels for the Saints, flicking a lovely header into the far corner of the ner.
Fulham 0-0 Leeds
Tyler Roberts again with a chance for Leeds. It comes from another corner and sees the ball drop to the Welsh forward. He takes a touch and fires but his effort is blocked.
Brandon Hanlan
Scenes.
Brandon Hanlan scores his first goal for Wycombe... and THEY LEAD AT MANCHESTER CITY.
City make a mess of clearing a corner and Ryan Tafazolli squares the ball for Hanlan to tap into an empty net from three yards out.
Fulham 0-0 Leeds
Another chance. Leeds swing over a corner but despite rising to meet it Tyler Roberts can't glance his header on target.
