'We will succeed, you will see' - Pochettino relishing Chelsea challenge

Chelsea booked their passage to the semi-final of the Carabao Cup on penalties after Mykhailo Mudryk’s stoppage-time equaliser rescued a 1-1 draw against Newcastle United at Stamford Bridge.

Mudryk slotted home after a mistake from Kieran Trippier just as Eddie Howe’s side looked to have done enough to ease past the hosts, who struggled to create for much of the game.

Earlier, Callum Wilson had given the visitors a first-half lead on the counter-attack. But as the game went to spot-kicks, Trippier again was culpable, firing wide from 12 yards before Matt Ritchie saw the critical kick saved by goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic to see Chelsea through.

Relive all the action from tonight’s clash below:

Chelsea 0-1 Newcastle

20 mins: Newcastle have their tails up now as Tino Livramento makes a good tackle and Gordon is a better touch away from being freed and racing in on goal. Plenty of time for Chelsea to respond but they need to settle down.

GOAL! Chelsea 0-1 Newcastle (Wilson 16’ ⚽)

A defensive disasterclass from Chelsea and Newcastle lead through Callum Wilson!

Wilson outpaces Thiago Silva but it seems a fairly innocuous counter as the Newcastle striker is surrounded by three men. The chasing Benoit Badiashile does well to muscle in front of him but then completely scuffs the ball between his own feet as he goes to clear, it falls back to Wilson and he finds a lovely finish into the corner with the outside of his foot.

Nice work by Wilson but Badiashile has to deal with that.

13 mins: Cole Palmer hasn’t really had a touch for Chelsea so far but he finally gets a bit of room down the right. Disasi then gets to the byline and his cross is blocked out for a corner.

10 mins: Cracking opening 10 minutes here and Newcastle have another half-chance. Bruno Guimaraes whips a cross in from the right, it deflects on to the penalty spot and Gordon is charging in to try and get there but Disasi scrambles away in the nick of time.

CROSSBAR! Chelsea 0-0 Newcastle

6 mins: Good start by Newcastle but Enzo Fernandez draws the foul from Lewis Miley to ease the pressure. Conor Gallagher then takes a bit of a hospital pass and launches an attack.

Nicolas Jackson with some room on the right and wins a corner as his shot is blocked. And then it’s OFF THE BAR! Ball comes out to Gallagher on the edge of the area, it sits up and he curls a dipping effort over Martin Dubravka but it rattles the bar and bounces clear! Newcastle survive.

Chelsea 0-0 Newcastle

4 mins: Lively start here by both teams. Newcastle surge forward as Miguel Almiron curls the ball into Gordon’s feet, it bounces up and his shot is blocked over the bar by the covering Axel Disasi for a corner.

Corner is too long and easily cleared

2 mins: Oooof, that’s a naughty one from Moises Caicedo straight away. He gets a yellow card inside two minutes for a bad rake down the back of Anthony Gordon’s calf from behind.

Is he a bit lucky there’s no VAR? If there were, then it could have been looked at for a red, although yellow maybe about right.

Underway at Stamford Bridge. A semi-final place in the Carabao Cup awaits.
