Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup has expressed his delight following his side's 3-1 defeat of Liverpool in the League Cup this evening.

Goals from Chico Flores, Nathan Dyer and Jonathan de Guzman saw the Welsh outfit come out winners at Anfield, with the holders' reply coming from Luis Suarez.

"We put in a great performance. We just needed about 10 minutes to get into the game," BBC Sport quotes Laudrup as saying.

"We produced some great passing football and at other times counter-attacking football. I'm very pleased and happy because to win against Liverpool at Anfield is a big achievement."

Swansea will learn who they are facing in the quarter-finals later this evening when the draw for the last eight takes place.
