Mario Balotelli and Dejan Lovren spared Liverpool the blushes as they beat Swansea 2-1 in the Capital One Cup fourth round at Anfield.
The Welsh side took the lead through Marvin Emnes who scored in the 65th minute after a scoreless first half. But just when it looked like the Swans would come away with a win, Balotelli equalized in the 86th minute.
The Reds then won the match and qualified for the next round after Lovren headed home from a free kick, denying Swansea the chance to eliminate the Merseyside club from the competition for the second time in three seasons.
