Manchester United needed penalties to beat neighbours Rochdale in the Carabao Cup third round on a tense night at Old Trafford.
Mason Greenwood put United ahead with a low strike but 16-year-old Luke Matheson smashed home a famous equaliser 14 minutes from time for League One Rochdale to force penalties.
Jimmy Keohane was the only player to fail to score in the shootout, with Sergio Romero saving his effort, and United scoring all five kicks.
While the hosts – who had 31 shots during the 90 minutes – left the pitch rather sheepishly, Rochdale earned a standing ovation from the 5,500 travelling supporters.
