- Fourth-tier Fleetwood knock Arsenal out of the League Cup on penalties to reach the quarter-finals
In a League Cup last-16 upset on Tuesday, Oct 27, League Two side Fleetwood drew 1-1 with Premier League champions Arsenal, who played with 10 men, then won 5-3 on penalties to reach the quarter-finals. Loupalo-Bi gave Fleetwood the lead in the 21st minute and Arsenal striker Gyokeres equalised four minutes into the second half; play was halted for more than eight minutes early on after a drone appeared above the ground. Arsenal teenager Max Dowman was sent off after a clash with an opponent. In the shootout goalkeeper Jay Lynch saved one kick and Conor Haughey scored the winner. Arsenal's manager called it 'a very sad day'.
