Everton edge Fleetwood in League Cup for first win of season, Fulham suffer shock exit
Frank Lampard's struggling side were one of 10 Premier League clubs in action across 21 ties and edged through to round three thanks to Demarai Gray's 28th-minute goal. Fulham were brought back to earth with a bump after their impressive start to their top-flight return. The Londoners went down 2-0 away to fourth-tier Crawley Town who are 84 places lower on the English ladder. Manager Marco Silva made 10 changes for the trip and Crawley took advantage when Tom Nichols slotted a 16th-minute opener.
