EVERTON’s recent woes continued as they were dumped out of the Carabao Cup on penalties by Southampton.
The two struggling Prem sides couldn’t be separated in front of a frustrated crowd at Goodison Park.

Abdoulaye Doucoure gave the Toffees a first-half lead, bundling in a far post header following pinball in the box.
But in a continuation of their recent inability to hold a lead, Everton were pegged back before the break.
Taylor Harwood-Bellis was given far too much time to power a header past Joao Virginia, setting up an end-to-end second half.
Despite numerous chances, neither team could find a winner in normal time.
The game headed to spot kicks, where Ashley Young was the only player to miss, sending Saints through to the fourth round.
