League Two Fleetwood stun Arsenal in Carabao Cup penalty shootout
League Two Fleetwood Town knocked out Premier League champions Arsenal from the Carabao Cup on penalties after a 1-1 draw.
Fleetwood Town, 18th in League Two, produced one of the biggest shocks in Carabao Cup history by eliminating Premier League champions Arsenal on penalties after a 1-1 draw. A drone hovering above Highbury Stadium delayed the start, but once play began, Aaron Loupalo-Bi gave Fleetwood an early lead. Viktor Gyökeres equalised for Arsenal in the second half. The match was decided on penalties after Arsenal's 16-year-old Max Dowman was sent off for reacting to a challenge in the closing stages. Fleetwood converted all five penalties while Bruno Guimarães's miss for Arsenal proved decisive, with teenage defender Conor Haughey scoring the winning spot-kick to send Fleetwood through to the quarter-finals.
