Moses, Iwobi clash in Carabao Cup semis

Super Eagles stars Alex Iwobi and 2017 CAF Player of the year nominee Victor Moses will face each other in the Carabao Cup semi-finals following Wednesday’s draw which pitched Arsenal against Chelsea.

Bristol City’s reward for overcoming Manchester United is to face the Red Devils’ city rivals Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City who are the current EPL league leaders.

The first leg of the semi-finals will take place on the week commencing January 8, the second a fortnight later. Manchester City and Chelsea will host the first legs.

Arsenal battled into the last four by beating London rivals West Ham 1-0 with a Danny Welbeck goal at the Emirates on Tuesday while Chelsea joined them in the hat following a 2-1 victory over Bournemouth on Wednesday.

The 2017-18 season EFL surprise package Bristol City beat holders Manchester United 2-1 to reach the last four on Wednesday, 24 hours after Man City needed the heroics of Claudio Bravo to knock out Kelechi Iheanacho, Wilfred Ndidi and Ahmed Musa’s Leicester on penalties.
