English League Cup | Liverpool book record 19th semifinal berth with 5-1 rout of West Ham

Curtis Jones scored twice and Liverpool booked a record 19th appearance in the League Cup semi-finals with a 5-1 thrashing of West Ham United on Wednesday, claiming the last of the four berths.

Dominik Szoboszlai, Cody Gakpo and talisman Mohamed Salah, who did not enter the game until it was an hour old, also scored for Juergen Klopp's team in what unravelled into a rout in the final 20 minutes.

"The performance, the scoresheet, the result and the individual performances put together to make a team on the pitch," a delighted Klopp told Sky Sports. "The boys enjoyed it a lot, they worked hard but enjoyed it too with joyful football in moments. Nice to see."
