Arsenal beat Leeds United to reach Carabao Cup quarter-finals

Published

League Cup quarter-finals with a victory over fellow English Premier League (EPL) side Leeds United on Tuesday.

Arsenal eased through with second-half goals from Calum Chambers and Eddie Nketiah in a 2-0 win over struggling Leeds United.

Chambers opened the scoring in the 55th minute, 23 seconds after coming on as a substitute.

The defender’s header looked to have been saved by Illan Meslier but goal-line technology ruled that the ball had crossed the line.

The Gunners’ second goal came in the 69th minute from a poor header back by Liam Cooper.

It had left Meslier stranded as Nketiah rounded the keeper and his mis-hit shot from a tight angle just rolled into the corner.
