Leicester City beat Southampton on penalties following a goalless draw in normal time to set up a home quarter-final tie against holders Manchester City.
The Foxes had to ride their luck as their opponents twice hit the crossbar in the second half and had a Steven Davis goal ruled out for offside.
In the end Manolo Gabbiadini's missed pen would prove costly, with Nampalys Mendy successfully tucking the following attempt away to win the match 6-5 for his side.

Claude Puel: "It's important to play all these games with the right desire and good aggressiveness and mentality. We have the squad to maintain a good level. It will be a good opportunity for the squad to perform together and to win something. We know the importance of winning something. The cup will be important for us."
Mark Hughes: "Clearly, Leicester are still dealing with the tragic loss of their owner. I'd imagine there's still a lot of emotion around every game they play. We will have to deal with that in our own way, along with being respectful to them as well."
