In the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup, not only the match between Everton and Manchester United was marked on the calendar. Since the last, the individual duel that Yerry Mina and Edinson Cavani would have had already been heating up. The last time they saw each other was in Colombia for qualifying and central Guachené was excluded.
