A last-minute own goal by Joleon Lescott gave holders Chelsea a 2-1 win against Everton in the first leg of their League Cup semifinals on Tuesday.
Wright-Phillips gave Chelsea the lead in the 26th in a match where the hosts played most of the second half a man down after John Obi Mikel was sent off.
Everton equalized through Aiyegbeni Yakubu before Lescott headed into his own net in the second minute of injury time.
The second leg at Everton is on Jan. 23. North London rivals Arsenal and Tottenham play the first leg of the other semifinal on Wednesday, with the final at Wembley on Feb. 24.
