Tim Howard made one superb save when, just after the hour mark, he dived at the feet of Albert Riera after Xabi Alonso’s through ball almost made the otherwise excellent Phil Jagielka pay for a rare misplaced pass.

Extra-time saw Reina make a wonderful double-save from Osman and substitute Dan Gosling, while Cahill headed a corner inches wide after he towered above Carragher and Skrtel

But it was gosling who had the last say as livepool played for pens he capitalised on some hesitance from Arbeloa, shimmied one way then another before clipping a shot off the outstretched leg of Skrtel to leave Reina helpless and send Everton into the fifth round
