In the 13th round of the penalty shootout, Bryan Mbeumo fooled the goalkeeper but the ball hit the crossbar and bounced back. This was also the decisive moment in the second round of the Carabao Cup. The unknown team from the Fourth Division, Grimsby, defeated one of the most traditional clubs in England to win the ticket to the next round. |
After the penalty shootout ended, hundreds of fans flooded the pitch to celebrate. Regardless of how far Grimsby go in the League Cup, fans at Blundell Park will have a sleepless night. |
Christy Pym, a goalkeeper valued at just €350,000, was undoubtedly Grimsby's hero, overshadowing fellow €50m signing Andre Onana with a fine display in goal. Pym made seven saves in 90 minutes and saved Matheus Cunha's fifth penalty to seal a historic win for his side. |
A festive atmosphere at Blundell Stadium. Grimsby fans could not believe that their beloved team could overcome an opponent that was considered superior in both reputation and class. |

According to Transfermarkt , the total value of Grimsby's squad is only 3.6 million euros, a figure not equal to Man Utd's young rookie Diego Leon (4 million euros). |
MU players were stunned after the historic defeat. This season, the "Red Devils" only have the goal of striving for the Premier League and FA Cup. If he cannot help his players regain their spirit and improve their performance, coach Ruben Amorim is at risk of being fired. |
