Liverpool moved into the League Cup semi-finals as holders won 2-1 against managerless Southampton.

Gabriel Jesus ended his goal drought with a hat-trick in Arsenal's 3-2 victory over Crystal Palace on Wednesday.

Three goals from Darwin Nunez and Harvey Elliott at St Mary's sent the 10-time League Cup winners into the last four for a record 20th time.

Following a surprise 2-2 draw against Fulham in the Premier League last weekend, Liverpool got back on track with a 20th win from 24 games in all competitions under Arne Slot, who has lost just once since arriving at Feyenoord to replace Jurgen Klopp.

Those who watched the quarter-final from the stands while serving a touchline suspension opted to rest Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk as the Premier League leaders made several changes.

Liverpool's attacking studies were too strong for Southampton and Nunez ended his poor recent form with a crucial finish after Jan Bednarek made a hash of clearing Trent Alexander-Arnold's pass in the 24th minute.

It was only Nunez's fourth goal in all competitions in a difficult season for the Uruguayan striker, who had gone six games without scoring.

Elliott doubled Liverpool's lead in the 32nd minute, drilling low past Alex McCarthy from 12 yards for his first goal this season.

Cameron Archer reduced the deficit in the 59th minute with a superb curling strike from just inside the area.

Southampton were furious when a late Jarell Quansah challenge on Mateus Fernandes didn't result in a penalty.

But there was no escaping yet another defeat for Southampton in caretaker boss Simon Rusk's first game after Russell Martin was sacked following Sunday's 5-0 thrashing by Tottenham.

At the Emirates Stadium, Brazilian striker Jesus finally found the back of the net on home turf for the first time in 2024.
