Carabao Cup draw LIVE: Man Utd face Charlton as Man City and Newcastle also discover quarter-final opponents

26 mins: Man City’s free kick comes into the penalty area but Liverpool scrappily deal with it.

The Reds then have to contend with a City corner that Riyad Mahrez pulls back to Cole Palmer. Palmer shoots but his effort is easily charged down and cleared.

23 mins: Close! Palmer takes on Milner and twists his way into space on the left wing before flicking a cross into the middle of the box. The ball drops over Gundogan and almost falls for Haaland but he misses the ball with a dive towards the dropping pass.

Rico Lewis then recovers the loose ball and wins a free kick thanks to a foul from Fabio Carvalho.

20 mins: Liverpool are back in the game! Joel Matip goes on an enterprising run down the right side and gets to the tip of the box before slipping the ball to James Milner.

Milner is free inside the penalty area and spots Fabio Carvalho in space. He sends the ball over to the youngster who guides his shot calmly into the bottom corner.

All square.

18 mins: As City look to regain control Rodri flicks the ball over to Riyad Mahrez out on the right side.

He looks to cut onto his left foot and get into the penalty area but the combined force of Andy Robertson and Fabio Carvalho force him to the byline where he knocks the ball out of play.

15 mins: Off the post! Liverpool’s spell of possession almost pays off as the ball comes out to Harvey Elliott on the right side. He carries the ball into the final third before slipping a pass into the box for Darwin Nunez.

Aymeric Laporte thinks the forward is offside but the flag doesn’t go up and Nunez turns his first time effort onto the nearest post!

The ball bounces behind and then the assistant referee raises the flag for an offside.

13 mins: These opening stages have all gone Manchester City’s way. Pep Guardiola’s men have settled into their rhythm and intensity quicker than Liverpool who still look off the pace.

The Reds are having a decent period on the ball now though.

10 mins: There it is! It’s taken Erling Haaland just 10 minutes to open the scoring. Cole Palmer is given the ball on the left wing and sends it inside to Ilkay Gundogan.

Kevin De Bruyne makes a run out wide ahead of Palmer and Gundogan feeds the ball up to him. De Bruyne swings a cross into the middle of the box where Haaland leaps in front of Joe Gomez and toes the ball into the back of the net on the volley.

9 mins: Manchester City are getting the better of Liverpool at the minute. Aymeric Laporte floats a cross field pass up and over to Cole Palmer making a run down the left wing.

Palmer brings the ball into the box and pulls it back to Kevin De Bruyne. He shoots but bounces his effort into the deck and Caoimhin Kellerher gets solidly in behind it.

6 mins: Chance! City should be in front. Erling Haaland makes a run in behind the Liverpool high line as Manuel Akanji chips the ball over the top.

Haaland recovers the loose ball and carries it to the right side of the box before squaring it across to Cole Palmer. Palmer shoots first time but fizzes his effort wide of the right-hand post.

3 mins: Six weeks ago Haaland would have burried that early chance but the World Cup break seems to have dulled his clinical edge ever so slightly.

At the other end of the pitch Darwin Nunez is slipped into the left channel and lets fly with a shot but Aymeric Laporte gets across quickly and puts the block in.

Good start to the game this.
