Peter Odemwingie was delighted that Stoke City will continue their run in the Capital One Cup after seeing off Premier League champions Chelsea in the fourth round .

The 34 - year - old kept his cool to dispatch his penalty after a shootout was needed to decide the winner following Loic Remy’s stoppage-time equaliser.

Stoke City’s Jack Butland saved the last kick taken by Eden Hazard and Odemwingie was full of praise for the goalkeeper after Tuesday night’s clash at the Britannia Stadium and the whole team.

“Great effort from the team. JB is the man ! Very happy for all of us Potters,” Odemwingie posted on Twitter.

The Nigeria international has made 5 appearances in the League Cup since he moved to England from Lokomotiv Moscow in the summer of 2010.
