Villa Park Was Rocking As Steven Gerrards Aston Villa Side Put Five Past A Youthful Liverpool Team In The Carabao Cup

Aston Villa vs Liverpool: Rout gives Gerrard first win

Villa Park was rocking as Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa side put five past a youthful Liverpool team in the Carabao Cup.

The result ended a run of 14 defeats in 21 home games against the Reds and was just their second win in that time.

Cameron Archer scored twice, with Ollie Watkins, Ezri Konsa and Danny Ings also on target as Villa reached the last 16.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp made 11 changes to his starting line-up, with Harvey Elliott the only player to keep his place from the 3-1 win over Arsenal on Saturday.

The visitors were second best throughout and rarely threatened, with their best chance falling to Kaide Gordon, who hit the post late on.

Villa, meanwhile, were clinical in front of goal and could have added to their tally.

The victory was a timely boost for Gerrard, who had overseen just one win in his first four games in charge.
