Chelsea staged a stunning second-half comeback at Stamford Bridge, scoring four goals in 12 minutes to beat Leeds United 6-3 in the Carabao Cup third round. Trailing 1-0 at the break, Xabi Alonso made four half-time substitutions as Cole Palmer and Pedro Neto turned the frantic nine-goal thriller upside down.
