From Ian Murtagh at St James' Park

Eddie Howe was thrilled his Newcastle side showed their intent early to take the game away from Chelsea.

He said: “We feel a lot better about ourselves after that.

“We needed a performance and a result and we got both, especially in the first half when we were on  the front foot and at our best.

“Games change in a heartbeat and so can momentum. When you are in a difficult moment, the only thing that can spark you into life is yourselves.

“Straight from kick off we showed our intent. Despite all their changes, we beat a very good team, have no illusions about that.”

Favourites out

Interesting.

Manchester City are OUT before the quarter final stage.

It's wide open now...

Player ratings

Chelsea made 11 changes once again and this time it cost them with Benoit Badiashile and Axel Disasi off the pace.

Only Mykhailo Mudryk can come out of the match with any credit as Chelsea were dumped out of the Carabao Cup by a resurgent Newcastle.

Here's how I rated them:

Full time stats

Plenty of the ball for the visitors but virtually nothing done with it.

They've actually dominated virtually every stat measured.

Except the score-line...

From Ian Murtagh at St James' Park

So it’s revenge for Newcastle following Sunday’s Premier League defeat at Stamford Bridge.

And Eddie Howe’s side have also avenged last season’s Carabao Cup KO at the hands of Chelsea.

They’re through to the last eight and a kind draw will evoke memories of two seasons ago when they reached the Wembley final only to lose 2-0 to Manchester United.

Chelsea huffed and puffed in the second half but never looked like overturning the Toon’s 2-0 interval lead.

FT! Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Newcastle move into the last-eight of the Carabao Cup!

90 – Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Three minutes added on.

89 – Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Veiga has an attempt from 25 yards which is well struck but Pope gets down well to push it away.

85 - Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Joao Felix is adjudged to have fouled Bruno Guimaraes on the edge of the Newcastle boss.

He disagrees with that decision and his reaction earns him a yellow card.

83 - OFF THE POST! Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

What a goal this would've been for Newcastle.

Krafth nips in ahead of Mudryk to win possession back before driving 40 yards, sitting Veiga on his backside with a clever turn.

He finds Osula with his own clever turn on the right edge of the area, onto his left foot before firing low and hard at the near post.

It smashes the base of the post and away to safety.

80 - Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Into final 10 minutes and Cole Palmer remains sat in his seat, looks like we won't be seeing him tonight.

Newcastle sitting deeper now and Chelsea finding it difficult to break them down.

Enzo Fernandez goes down after trying to tackle Bruno G, holding his face after a brushing of Bruno's hand. Dearie me.

HUGE CHANCE! 75 - Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Tremendous, defence-splitting pass from Badiashile gets Felix clean through.

He's in a race with Pope to get there and he beats the Newcastle keeper, flicking it over him and towards goal but a couple of inches wide. Huge chance.

74 - GOOOAAAAA - NO!! Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Looked like being 3-0 and game over but the flag comes to Chelsea's rescue.

A deep ball in from a set piece found Schar all alone and he nodded across the face of goal for Longstaff - also all alone - to nod home.

Schar was offside in the initial delivery though.

72 - Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Double change for Newcastle who are looking to see the game out now.

  • OFF: Hall & Gordon
  • ON: Burn & Livramento

68 - Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Midway inside the second half and Chelsea are ramping up possession and efforts at goal.

Still zilch to show for it, mind you.

67 - Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Good work from Bruno G to win possession back midway inside the Newcastle half.

He tries to get Osula away on the counter but good defending from Chelsea that time.

From Ian Murtagh at St James' Park

Fast, furious and relentless, both sides are hammering away at each other. Chelsea have thrown on Madueke but so far Newcastle have held firm.

None more so than Lloyd Kelly who threw himself at the feet of Nkunku when the striker looked a certain scorer.

66 - Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

One-way traffic at the minute as Chelsea win back-to-back corners.

They again swarm round Nick Pope but the keeper does tremendously well to come off his line to claim.

64 - Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Good play again from Mudryk down the left and he's tripped by Joelinton.

He stays down as Chelsea take the free kick quick but nothing comes of it.

62 – Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Double change for the hosts:

  • OFF: Willock & Isak
  • ON: Bruno G & Osula

62 – Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Huge chance for Nkunku once again! Mudryk's pace gets him clear once again down the left.

He picks out Nkunku in plenty of room 12 yards from goal but the striker's attempt goes BACKWARDS and Newcastle scramble it clear.

PENALTY SHOUT! 61 – Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Chelsea looking for a penalty here.

Madueke with a drop of the shoulder and he skips round Gordon out wide.

The Newcastle man gets back and puts his arms on Madueke who looks quite happy to throw himself to ground.

Nothing given.

60 - Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Outstanding defending from Schar, who has Nkunku nipping away from him inside the box.

Schar times his tackle to perfection, getting the ball behind for a corner.

56 – Newcastle 2-0 Chelsea

Enzo Maresca doesn't wait too much longer before going to his bench, with Dewsbury-Hall hooked before the hour.

  • OFF: Dewsbury-Hall
  • ON: Madueke
