ACTION IMAGES/REUTERS LONDON — Liverpool moved into the League Cup semifinals as the holder won 2-1 against manager-less Southampton, while Gabriel Jesus ended his goal drought with a hat-trick in Arsenal's 3-2 victory over Crystal Palace on Wednesday. Rare goals from Darwin Nunez and Harvey Elliott at St Mary's sent the 10-time League Cup winner into the last four for a record 20th time. The Gunners, who last won the League Cup in 1993, are six points behind Liverpool, and Mikel Arteta made eight changes as he prioritized Arsenal's rematch with Palace in the league on Saturday.
