    I think Luton boss John Still will be quite pleased as his side are playing with a bit of pace. Stephen Ireland is having some decent possession for Stoke but the visitors are struggling to create chances.

    It's fair to say Dan Gosling is a man who enjoys a League Cup tie - he scored all five of his goals last season in this competition. The midfielder fires in a low shot as the Cherries take a commanding position against the League Two side.

  3. Sunderland 2-2 Exeterpublished at 20:21 British Summer Time 25 August 2015

    Exeter's win at Swindon in the League Cup first round was their first away win in the competition since 1992. Just like the buses, could it be a case of two arriving in quick succession after they come back from two goals down to level at the Stadium of Light.

    Bury 0-1 Leicester

    Leicester development squad manager Steve Beaglehole said before tonight's game that Joe Dodoo "has been wanting that chance, he feels like he’s ready for it and he deserves it".

    He sounds like a confident lad and the 20-year-old debutant has backed up the chat with the opening goal.

    It might be a whole new 11 from the one that won at West Ham, but the Premier League newcomers are ahead as Junior Stanislas and Yann Kermorgant combine.

    Fantastic from Exeter City, who've hauled themselves back into contention against Premier League Sunderland.

    David Wheeler's far-post header is perfectly placed and has the League Two Grecians level having earlier trailed 2-0.

    Paul Dickov's Doncaster have the advantage against the Championship leaders. Striker Andy Williams touches home from a cross on the left, his second of the season.

    Leicester's Joe Dodoo breaks the deadlock at Gigg Lane. The debutant swivels in the box and hits a powerful left-footed shot which cannons in off the underside of the bar.

    Adama Traore (24 mins)

    Formerly of Barcelona, Adama Traore is used to more glamour than the early rounds of the League Cup, but he has applied himself well to bring Villa level. Jack Grealish makes the goal with a good run into the box and pass to Traore, who does the rest with a low finish.

    It looks like Stephen O'Donnell's legs were taken away from him but the assistant referee was close to the incident. A huge sigh of relief from the Stoke bench.

  11. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 20:12

    Luton 0-0 Stoke

    Luton Town's Stephen O'Donnell bombs on from right-back and goes down in a heap in the box under the attentions of Marko Arnautovic.

    On closer inspection, O'Donnell got tangled up in his own legs rather than having them taken from him by the back-tracking Arnautovic.

    George Friend OG (24 mins)

    Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink's Burton are ahead against Championship side Middlesbrough!

    Matt Palmer's free-kick from the left isn't properly cleared, and eventually the ball goes bouncing in off Boro defender George Friend.

    An amazing finish from Jonny Howson who fires from long-range past Rotherham keeper Adam Collin to break the deadlock after an even opening 20 minutes at the New York Stadium.

    Aston Villa 0-1 Notts County

    Just the 69 league places between League Two Notts County and Premier League Aston Villa.

    Tim Sherwood will be drawing up the half-time riot act already to jump-start his side.

    Crystal Palace 0-1 Shrewsbury

    If you're surprised League One Shrewsbury have taken the lead at top-flight Palace then maybe you won't be after learning that they are unbeaten in seven games against the Eagles in all competitions, winning five and drawing two.

    Villa have suffered their share of shocks against lower league clubs and they are behind to another tonight. They only have themselves to blame as well as Alan Hutton gives the ball away near his own box, allowing Genaro Snijders to pick up possession and curl a deflected shot into the net from 20 yards.

    The Exeter City fans have endured a 362-mile trip up to the Stadium Light, and their side already have it all to do.
