Goals from Charles Vernam and Tyrell Warren sent the home crowd into raptures.

United pulled one back through substitute Bryan Mbeumo before Harry Maguire powered in a header in the 89th minute.

The game went straight to penalties, and after 11 spot-kicks between the two teams, Mbeumo smashed his effort against the bar.

United’s next match is a Premier League clash against Brighton this weekend.
