Weir injured as Everton go through
12 April 2012
Everton cruised into the last 16 of the Carling Cup following a 4-0 victory over Luton, but they ended the night with captain David Weir in hospital having a head scan.
The veteran Scot was carried off seconds from the break after a sickening clash of heads with Leon Barnett, and was unconscious on the pitch. He came round in the dressing room and was taken to hospital.
Everton were two ahead at the break through Tim Cahill and a Keith Keane own goal, with James McFadden and substitute Victor Anichebe netting in the second half when the Toffees threatened to run riot.
