The Carabao Cup saw a host of clashes between high flyers and lower league minnows, as well as top flight toss ups.
In perhaps the result of the midweek, Leicester City dumped struggling Liverpool out of the competition, winning 2-0 at the King Power Stadium.
The stat of the week, and possibly the season, comes from Goodison Park.
Everton hosted Sunderland and ran out 3-0 winners, finally finding the net and breaking their streak of losses.
As reported by the 'Telegraph', the game was more notable for this statistic: Sunderland's team against Everton had more Everton appearances than Everton.
Everton fans would have recognised a host of familiar faces when the 'Black Cats' visited. Jack Rodwell led the way with 109 appearances, and lined up alongside Darron Gibson and James Vaughan, recording 69 and 60 'Toffees' appearances each.
All in all, the Sunderland side's total of 238 appearances for Everton eclipsed Koeman's side's 230 total appearances.
Whilst the Merseyside side were relieved to finally arrest their slump, perhaps they would've been winners either way.
