These are all the best jokes as Everton fail to reach the League Cup final following a 3-1 semi-final second leg defeat at Manchester City, of which the major talking point was a controversial goal scored by Kevin De Bruyne.
City’s Raheem Sterling appeared to have clearly run the ball out of play before crossing for the Belgian to score on 70 minutes and put the hosts 2-1 up.
The goal was allowed to stand – a decision Roberto Martínez called “hurtful and unfair”.
These are all the best jokes as Everton go out of the League Cup after losing 3-1 to Manchester City in the second leg of their semi-final at the Etihad on Wednesday night:

If these controversial goals lead to Everton's exit I'm sure they'll sportingly accept it and won't harp on about it for decades to come.
