Newcastle, Palace, Bournemouth Advance in League Cup; Millwall Ousted

Newcastle United secured their place in the fourth round of the English League Cup with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Millwall. Joseph Willock's decisive goal in the 81st minute propelled the Magpies forward, extending their unbeaten start to the season.

The win at The Den marks a significant step for Newcastle, who lifted the League Cup trophy in 2025. They were joined in the next round by fellow Premier League sides Crystal Palace and Bournemouth, who also navigated their respective ties successfully. The results eliminate Millwall from the competition.
