Grimsby Town knocked Manchester United out of the Carabao Cup after a dramatic penalty shootout.
The League Two side secured a 12-11 penalty win following a 2-2 draw in regular time at Blundell Park.
Grimsby initially took a 2-0 lead with goals from Charles Vernam and Tyrell Warren, the latter capitalising on an error by Andre Onana.
Manchester United fought back to level the score through goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Harry Maguire, forcing the match to penalties.
Bryan Mbeumo then missed the decisive penalty for Manchester United, striking his effort off the crossbar, which sealed Grimsby's famous victory.
