LIVERPOOL star Caomhin Kelleher had to remove a pie from the pitch which appeared to come from the West Ham end.

The Reds progressed to the Carabao Cup semi-final after thrashing David Moyes’ side 5-1 at Anfield.

It was a disappointing result for West Ham, who would have been the highest-placed team left in the competition if they had beaten Liverpool.

But some amongst the unhappy travelling faithful seemingly came up with other ways to keep amused.

A pie was thrown from the recently renovated Anfield Road End – which houses both home and away fans.

It reached the six-yard box and Reds goalkeeper Kelleher was forced to pick up the piece of food before tossing it behind his goal.

Liverpool’s victory means they will battle it out with Fulham for a place at Wembley in February.

The Cottagers beat Everton on penalties to progress and could face Chelsea or Middlesbrough in the final.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side knocked out Newcastle in a penalty shoot-out while Boro overcame Port Vale.

Fans were disappointed with the draw as Liverpool and Chelsea managed to avoid each other.

Should Chelsea and Liverpool progress as expected, that would set up a repeat of the 2022 Carabao Cup final, which Jurgen Klopp’s team won.
