Iwobi was named in coach Gernot Rohr’s 24 man squad to do battle with the squirrels of Benin Republic in Port Novo and the Crocodiles of Lesotho in Lagos.
Iwobi retained his place in the starting line up despite Gylfi Sigurdsson and Allan making a return to the starting 11 after missing the midweek victory at West Brom.
Everton, who have reached the quarter-finals for the first time in five years, will find out who they face in the last eight in Thursday evening’s draw.
Iwobi and his teammates went into the game hoping to make it four wins on a bounce, off the back of victories against Leicester City, Chelsea and Arsenal.
Alex Iwobi says Everton must forget about their weekend win over Arsenal and focus Wednesday night’s Carabao Cup quarter-final clash against Manchester United.
