We had 29 ties yesterday so thought it might be quieter tonight - that'll teach us!

What an evening of EFL Cup action we've had - 19 goals, three penalty shootouts and a contender for goal of the season at St Andrew's.

We still have one more tie to decide with Tranmere and Burton going again next week after their power outage last night.

In the meantime you can catch up with all the action here as well as looking at the full draw for round two.

We need to lay down - thanks for joining us - good night!

Sheffield United

It's two defeats from two for Ruben Selles at the start of his tenure as Sheffield United boss - he's been talking to Sky Sports:

"We have a smaller squad and needed to give chances to young players tonight and sometimes mistakes happen.

"We know Gustavo's (Hamer) quality and he's a player who can change games and he did it for us with that goal.

"It's now about how we manage moments in a game where we should not concede - it's a good lesson for us. We need to take it into the future."

Barnsley 2-2 Fleetwood - Barnsley win 5-4 on pens

Birmingham 2-1 Sheff Utd

Bolton 3-3 Sheff Wed - Wednesday win 4-2 on pens

Cheltenham 2-0 Exeter

Huddersfield 2-2 Leicester - Huddersfield win 3-2 on pens

Read all the reports here.

Birmingham City

Birmingham needed a late winner from Jay Stansfield despite dominating against Sheffield United and Blues boss Chris Davies has told Sky Sports:

"We played really well - I was happy with our performance - we were fluid with the ball and intense.

"At half-time it should have been 3-0 and we should have been out of sight - but we have to detach ourselves a little from the scoreline and look at the performance overall.

"Kyogo (Furuhashi) knows how to score goals - he's a natural scorer and when they're getting chances I know he'll score. He was a real nuisance tonight, dangerous and linking up - he'll get plenty of goals I'm sure."

Ian Clarkson
Ex-Birmingham captain on BBC Radio WM

It is all you can ask for really and was a thoroughly deserved victory for Blues, the game was definitely a bit closer than it should have been.

To only win 2-1 was a travesty, but Gus Hamer's goal was an incredible strike. But even after the equaliser Blues kept plugging away and we played a high pressing game.

We created so many chances to score it felt like only a matter of time.

Here's the full second-round draw.

What a night of EFL Cup action... what a first round we have seen.

Huddersfield join Doncaster, Bradford and Plymouth in knocking Championship opposition packing, pipping Leicester on penalties.

Cheltenham caused an upset of their own, beating Exeter, joining League Two Bromley in knocking out higher-division opponents.

Sheffield United's week has gone from bad to worse, their past three games have been defeat in the Championship play-off final, a 4-1 home humbling and now a last-gasp EFL Cup exit.

And there have been some truly stunning goals along the way too, and some wonderful performances by teenagers given their chance to shine in this competition.

Roll on round two... speaking of which...

Wednesday were a young side and they knew they had to perform above and beyond the call of duty, having never been in this environment before. And they did it in front of a decent crowd.

And as for the Sheffield Wednesday fans. Well, the owner come on have a look at what you have got here, it is a proper football club and now you are going to play Leeds United with the chance to go even further in this cup.

Come on just pay the bill.

Birmingham City

Birmingham were dominant against Sheffield United tonight and player of the match Ethan Laird has been speaking to Sky Sports:

"There were a few decisions that didn't go our way but it's amazing to get the win.

"We want to play like that - be a pressing team, be confident on the ball, be brave.

"I was trying be as busy as possible - I've had a little setback in pre-season but hopefully I can keep building on it.

"I feel it was important we kept a good core of players from last season and if you want to get to places you have to build on that and keep bringing in these transfers - it's a great buzz."

A lot of credit for this game needs to go to the manager, and the coaching staff for what they have done through pre-season. If you look at the shape of the team tonight they were very well organised.

They were brave in possession and took the ball under pressure and they managed to get over the line on penalties.

Wednesday deserved the win and overall I don't feel as if Bolton caused many problems, and we looked a threat on the counterattack.

It is a special moment for these fans.

The Terriers will head to Sunderland after a pulsating tie against Leicester.

Hamza Choudhary's gorgous half-volley put the visitors ahead after the break, Daniel Vost headed the leveller after Dion Charles penalty was saved by Jakub Stolarczyk, but after Harry Winks had curled City back infront, 18-year-old Cam Ashia scored another wonderful goal, his second in as many games.

Lee Nicholls, usurped as No1 this season, was the hero in the shootout with two saves which have booked his club a trip up the road to Premier League opposition.

Birmingham win it but it sounds closer than it should have been.

Kyogo Furuhashi gave them the lead after another defensive howler from Sheffield United but the home side were wasteful in front of goal as chances came and went.

They looked like they might pay for those misses when Gustavo Hamer came up with a moment of magic on 72 minutes when lifting the ball over goalkeeper James Beadle from the halfway line.

Chris Davies brought on the big guns to try to win it and Jay Stansfield came to the rescue with a late deflected effort.

Birmimgham will host Port Vale in round two.

Murphy Cooper saves from Ryan Graydon and George Morrison in the shoot-out and Barnsley will host Rotherham in a South Yorkshire derby in round two.

Sheffield Wednesday will host Leeds in round two, and the north stand will be open. Rejoice Owls fans. This has been a good night.

Gui Siqueira's blockbuster put the visitors ahead and after Jordi Osei-Tutu nodded the leveller, Ike Ugbo finished beautifully to make it 2-1.

Sub Thierry Gale made it 2-2 for the 10-men, after Sam Inwood's 27th minute red card, but Reece Johnson tucked home an angled strike, only for Amario Cozier-Duberry to lash home a stoppage-time leveller to send the tie to penalties, in which Pierce Charles was the hero with two saves in a 4-2 win.

We're 4-4 in the shoot-out - one miss each - into sudden death!

Lee Nicholls DENIES Kasey McAteer and Huddersfield are through to face Sunderland.

Bilal El Khannouss has hit the post for Leicester.

Advantage Huddersfield.

Lasse Sorensen makes it 3-2, just.

Pierce Charles saves from Max Conway allowing Liam Palmer the chance to win it... AND HE DOES.

Two saves from Charles and Wednesday are in dreamland.
