    Fourth division club Grimsby Town have knocked Manchester United out of football's League Cup


    The hosts led 2-nil before two late goals from their top flight visitors forced a penalty shootout.

    Fans stormed the pitch in celebration after United's Bryan Mbeumo missed a chance to level at 12-all.
