Liverpool advanced to the Carabao Cup semifinals Wednesday with a penalty shootout victory over Leicester City after a thrilling 3-3 draw.

A Jamie Vardy double inside the opening 13 minutes gave the Foxes command of the quarterfinal game at Anfield, and though Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s clinical conversion soon halved the deficit, James Maddison netted from long range to give the away team a strong half-time lead.
