Bristol City, not Manchester United, have progressed to the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup after late, late drama at Ashton Gate.
Extra-time loomed. Having fallen behind to Joe Bryan's goal early in the second half, Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored a free-kick - his first goal since returning from injury - to level things up for United. A second goal for Jose Mourinho's side did not follow, despite substitute Romelu Lukaku forcing a couple of decent saves from Luke Steele.
Despite this, many would've backed United to go on and finish the job in the additional 30 minutes. This, however, was not to be.
Deep into stoppage time, with the visitors repeatedly giving possession away, Korey Smith slotted the decisive goal past Sergio Romero in the United goal, setting up scenes of wild celebration from the home supporters.
