Sturridge sinks Everton

26 October 2011 22:46

Substitute Daniel Sturridge struck late in extra time as 10-man Chelsea edged out an Everton side also a man down 2-1 in the Carling Cup.

Chelsea went ahead through Salomon Kalou after a dreadful error by back-up goalkeeper Jan Mucha but were pegged back by Louis Saha after their number two keeper Ross Turnbull was sent off.

Yet Everton wasted numerous chances to win in normal time and, after losing Royston Drenthe in extra time, Sturridge settled the fourth-round tie after 116 minutes.
