Manchester City came back from 2-0 down at half time to controversially beat Swansea City 3-2. Watford knocked out Crystal Palace wit a 2-1 win. Wolverhampton Wanderers comfortably beat Manchester United 2-0 and as mentioned above, Brighton became the fourth and final club to book a place in the final four and claim £720,000 for doing so.
