And there ends a hectic night in the League Cup. Five-time winners Aston Villa have been knocked out by Burton. West Ham toyed with disaster against ten-man Wimbledon but made it through in the end. Premier League sides Cardiff and Huddersfield are goners, having been seen off by Norwich and Stoke respectively. Preston ended Leeds United’s unbeaten start to the season under Marcelo Bielsa. Southampton won the south-coast derby at Brighton. And Saido Berahino finally scored a goal after a two-and-a-half-year wait, only to be upstaged in Stoke’s win by an absurd 50-yard own goal by Juninho Bacuna. Phew. After that goal blitz, I’m off to stare at a wall for a few hours in the style of David Puddy, but thankfully unlike your poor Clocko hack, Paul Doyle is still capable of sentient thought. Here’s his report from the King Power. Nighty night!

So the results from the late kick-offs are in: West Brom have beaten Mansfield 2-1, surviving some last-minute pinball in their own area, while Saido Berahino has done for Huddersfield in a match that ended 2-0.
OUTRAGEOUS OWN GOAL! Stoke 2-0 Huddersfield (Bacuna 90+5): Huddersfield are pressing hard for a late equaliser. The keeper’s up. Stoke lump a clearance upfield. The keeper tracks back. Juninho Bacuna tries to return the ball into the Stoke half, but only succeeds in shanking it back towards his own goal! The keeper’s stranded, and that’s a quite spectacular og from 50 yards out!
The two penalty shoot-outs have been resolved! Macclesfield have beaten Walsall 3-1 on spot kicks, while Wycombe saw off Forest Green 4-3. According to your friend and mine, John Brewin, the Macc lads have never lost a penalty shootout, a record that goes back to 1992! Walsall were doomed the minute Tyrone Marsh scored that late equaliser!

GOAL! Brighton 0-1 Southampton (Austin 88): Charlie Austin converts a left-wing cross, heading into the top left. Saints look likely to win the south-coast derby!

GOAL! Sheff Wed 0-2 Wolves (Costa 85 pen): Helder Costa dribbles into the box from the right. He’s upended. He gets up and slots the resulting penalty away himself, sending the keeper the wrong way and the ball into the bottom right.
GOAL! Blackburn 4-1 Lincoln (Palmer 77): Kasey Palmer whistles a free kick into the net. Blackburn won 5-1 at Carlisle in the first round; they’re enjoying this competition so far.
GOAL! Cardiff 1-3 Norwich (Manga 77): From a corner on the right, Bruno Manga slaps a fine header into the top left for the hosts. Could an absurd comeback be on?
FULL TIME: Swansea City 0-1 Crystal Palace. The 2013 champions are out! Palace are through to Thursday’s third-round draw, thanks to Alexander Sorloth’s first goal in English football.
GOAL! Wycombe 2-1 Forest Green (Stewart 74): Antony Stewart puts the hosts ahead. Can Wanderers hold onto the lead for more than 120 seconds this time?
GOAL! Hull 0-3 Derby (Fleming og 73): Brandon Fleming bundles a cross into his own net, and this is over.
GOAL! Leicester 4-0 Fleetwood (Ghezzal 71): Rachid Ghezzal powers home from distance, and this is now a rout.
Updated
GOAL! Cardiff 0-3 Norwich (Aarons 69): Maximillian Aarons ensures at least one Premier League side will be shocked tonight.
BERAHINO GOAL! BERAHINO GOAL! BERAHINO GOAL! Stoke 1-0 Huddersfield (Berahino 53): After 47 games and two-and-a-half years, Saido Berahino scores a goal! And it’s a weird one, James McClean hitting the post, Berahino looping a header from the rebound that only just goes over the line. But hey, they all count, especially when you’ve been waiting so long.
Updated
GOAL! AFC Wimbledon 1-1 West Ham (Diop 63): Issa Diop threads a powerful shot into the bottom right. Relief for the Hammers!
Updated

GOAL! Cardiff 0-2 Norwich (Srbeny 64): Marco Stiepermann dribbles down the right, dinks to the far post, and Dennis Srbeny stoops to head home. The 1962 and 1985 winners can almost touch a place in the third round!

GOAL! Walsall 2-2 Macclesfield (Cook 63): Andy Cook equalises for Walsall, slotting away the rebound from a penalty kick. And then ...
GOAL! Blackburn 3-1 Lincoln (Downing 61): Paul Downing puts the game behind the unbeaten Imps ... you’d think.
GOAL! Doncaster 1-2 Blackpool (Pritchard 60): Blackpool were losing at the Keepmoat, but now they’re leading, a tangerine dream. Harry Pritchard scores with a header.
GOAL! Wycombe 1-1 Forest Green (Grubb 57): ... but moments later Barney McGrew Dayle Grubb levels.
GOAL! Wycombe 1-0 Forest Green (Kashket 55): Scott Kashket opens the scoring for the Chairboys at Adams Park ...
GOAL! Middlesbrough 2-0 Rochdale (Hugill 53): The high-flying Championship side double their lead through Jordan Hugill.
GOAL! Burton 1-0 Aston Villa (Boyce 52): Villa gift possession to their midlands rivals. Liam Boyce is put through; his shot from the edge of the area is deflected over the keeper and into the net. A shock brewing here, the five-time winners are on the way out unless they find an extra gear.
GOAL! Swansea 0-1 Crystal Palace (Sorloth 70): Alexander Sorloth scores his first goal for Palace, belting one in from close range.
GOAL! Blackburn 2-1 Lincoln (Graham 49): Rovers regain the lead, Danny Graham slotting home from a tight angle on the right.
GOAL! Sheff Wed 0-1 Wolves (Bonatini 53): Adama Traore impressed coming off the bench against Manchester City on Saturday. Now he turns on the jets, zips down the right, and tees up Leo Bonatini for the opening goal at Hillsborough.
GOAL! Fulham 2-0 Exeter (Kamara 48): A second goal of the night for Aboubakar Kamara, and it looks all over at Craven Cottage.
GOAL! Leicester 3-0 Fleetwood (Iheanacho 46): Leicester kick off. Fleetwood don’t touch the ball. Marc Albrighton launches long for Kelechi Iheanacho, who rolls home.
So as things stand, there are two Premier League sides in danger of crashing out in the second round. Cardiff are a goal down at home to Norwich, while West Ham are trailing at AFC Wimbledon. A fourth defeat in four games would put Manuel Pellegrini under serious pressure.

GOAL! Leeds 0-2 Preston (Barker 45+1): From a Leeds corner, Preston break upfield. Brandon Barker dribbles at pace from right to left, reaches the edge of the area, and pelts a stunner into the right-hand side of the goal! Preston are down to ten men, but they’ll be going in at half-time a couple of goals to the good. Could the Marcelo Bielsa honeymoon be coming to an unexpected end?
GOAL! WBA 1-0 Mansfield (Leko 26): Jonathan Leko converts an Oliver Burke cross.
GOAL! Brentford 1-0 Cheltenham (Jeanvier 40): A tap-in for Julian Jeanvier.
GOAL! Leicester 2-0 Fleetwood (Iborra 39): Fuchs, who scored the opener for the Foxes, tears down the left and crosses for Vicente Iborra. He powers a header into the top right.
Updated
GOAL! Doncaster 1-1 Blackpool (Nottingham 38): Michael Nottingham levels for the Seasiders with a cute flick.
GOAL! Hull 0-2 Derby (Jozefzoon 39): This is a sweet goal by Florian Jozefzoon: he drives with purpose down the inside left, turning his man inside and out before slamming a diagonal shot into the bottom right.
GOAL! Middlesbrough 1-0 Rochdale (Johnson 37): Marvin Johnson slots home a rebound from a tight angle.
GOAL! Bournemouth 2-0 MK Dons (Fraser 37): Jordan Ibe tees up Ryan Fraser, who whacks home, hard and high, from just inside the box.
HALF TIME: Swansea 0-0 Crystal Palace. So the first match to kick off this evening is halfway to penalties. A reminder that there’s no extra time or replays, so expect some spot-kick drama later on, somewhere if not here.
GOAL! Walsall 1-2 Macclesfield (Morris 33): A belt from the edge of the box from Kieron Morris, and the Saddlers are back in it.
GOAL! Blackburn 1-1 Lincoln (Luque 28): The Imps from League Two draw level with the Championship side thanks to Joan Luque.
Updated
RED CARD! Ledson (Preston 18): Ryan Ledson goes in studs up on Lewis Baker. It’s reckless, high, out of control and really quite appalling. Dear oh dear.
GOAL! Cardiff 0-1 Norwich (Srbeny 26): This is a delightful goal! Dennis Srbeny chases a deft Emiliano Buendía flick down the inside-left channel, performs a shimmy on the edge of the area, and lashes a thumper into the top right.
Updated
GOAL! Walsall 0-2 Macclesfield (Smith 25): Harry Smith’s shot takes a deflection and gives the visitors a Silk cushion.
GOAL! Hull 0-1 Derby (Waghorn 24): Martyn Waghorn scores his first goal for the Rams, lifting a gorgeous chip over the keeper from the left-hand edge of the D.
GOAL! Doncaster 1-0 Blackpool (May 23): Alfie May sends the ball whistling into the top left.
Updated
RED CARD! McDonald (Wimbledon 18): Rod McDonald tugs a marauding Robert Snodgrass back by the shirt. He was the last man, and so he’s off. The foul was just outside the area, and the resulting free kick came to nought. Still, on balance, some positive news for Manuel Pellegrini at long last.
GOAL! QPR 2-0 Bristol Rovers (Wszolek 18): Pawel Wszolek doubles Rangers’ lead from 20 yards. Those 7-1 and 3-0 drubbings suddenly seem a long time ago.
NEARLY A GOAL! Kelechi Iheanacho is set clear of the Fleetwood defence, but his shot caroms off the bottom of the right-hand post, across the face of goal, and away to safety. On the touchline, Joey Barton is either fuming or completely indifferent; having made those 11 changes it could be either, couldn’t it. But we can’t see him, so this is pure speculation. No need to thank Clockwatch, we’re here for you.
GOAL! Bournemouth 1-0 MK Dons (Mousset 15): A fine dribble down the inside-right channel from Lys Mousset.
GOAL! Leicester 1-0 Fleetwood (Fuchs 8): This is an absolute pearler! Christian Fuchs shapes like Zinedine Zidane in the 2002 Champions League final, and sends a diagonal screamer into the top right from distance out on the left!
GOAL! Walsall 0-1 Macclesfield (Grimes 10): A toe-poke by Jamie Grimes. They all count.
GOAL! Blackburn 1-0 Lincoln (Nuttall 4): Joe Nuttall gives Rovers a fast start. Graeme Souness, Matt Jansen, Andy Cole ... the 2002 final was an awfully long time ago, wasn’t it.
Updated
GOAL! Newport 0-2 Oxford (Baptiste 4): Shandon Baptiste doubles the 1986 winners’ lead.
GOAL! Fulham 1-0 Exeter (Kamara 4): Aboubakar Kamara gives the all-new Fulham an early lead.
GOAL! QPR 1-0 Bristol Rovers (Samuel 4): Steve McClaren has made 11 changes. And Bright Samuel has opened the scoring for the struggling Championship side.
GOAL! Newport 0-1 Oxford (Demetriou og 2): Oxford take the lead in the John Aldridge derby, Mickey Demetriou putting through his own net.
GOAL! Leeds 0-1 Preston (Johnson 2 pen): Daniel Johnson opens the scoring at Elland Road with a penalty kick.
GOAL! Wimbledon 1-0 West Ham (Pigott 2): West Ham’s miserable start to the season continues, as Joe Pigott heads a corner from the left into the top corner!

Team news: With 21 games on the go tonight, you must be joking. But what I will say is this: there have been many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many changes. Ten Premier League sides in action: 95 changes made between them. But it’s not just the Premier League treating English football’s third most prestigious pot with barely disguised contempt. For example, Swansea City have made ten changes, Fleetwood Town a full 11. Alan Hardaker will be spinning in his grave.

Preamble
The Carabao Cup. Depending on your age, you’ll always think of this trophy as the EFL Cup, the Capital One Cup, the Carling Cup, the Worthington Cup, the Coca-Cola Cup, the Rumbelows Cup, the Littlewoods Cup, the Milk Cup, the Football League Cup, or Alan Hardaker’s Folly. Whatever you feel most comfortable with.
Anyway, it’s the second round of the 2018-19 [INSERT PREFERRED NOMENCLATURE HERE]. All the big boys are involved now, except the seven Premier League clubs involved in European competition this season.
