Meanwhile, at Molineux, Chelsea endured an emotional 90 minutes against hosts Wolverhampton.

In the second half, Wolves fought back and Tolu Arokodare and David Møller Wolfe reduced the gap to 2-3.

At this point, Chelsea were the team to worry about, especially after losing a player in the 86th minute when Liam Delap received a second yellow card and was sent off. It wasn't until the 89th minute that Jamie Gittens helped the visitors breathe a sigh of relief with a goal that raised the score to 4-2. Despite the home team not giving up when David Møller Wolfe scored the third goal in the 90+1 minute, the remaining time was not enough for the "Wolves" to create a surprise.
Chelsea won a thrilling 7-goal match to reach the quarter-finals. Meanwhile, Tottenham continued to disappoint when losing to defending champions Newcastle 0-2 at St. James' Park. Two goals from Fabian Schär and Nick Woltemade helped the Magpies continue their journey to defend the championship title won last season while the Roosters sank deeper into a form crisis.
