Carabao Cup roundup: AFC Wimbledon stun Coventry to earn trip to Chelsea

AFC Wimbledon’s reward for a shock 2-1 victory over Coventry is a second round trip to Chelsea in the Carabao Cup. Fulham will host Tottenham in an all-Premier League tie in the week commencing 28 August.

Matty Godden put Coventry ahead with a penalty in the 17th minute. But Omar Bugiel equalised four minutes from time for the hosts before fellow substitute Ryan McLean coolly slotted home to seal a superb comeback for the League Two side.

Leeds came from behind to earn a trip to Salford after a 2-1 victory over Shrewsbury at Elland Road. The hosts fell behind just before the half-hour mark when Taylor Perry’s strike deflected past Karl Darlow. But Leeds fought back in the second half as Joe Gelhardt followed in Ian Poveda’s saved shot to equalise in the 52nd minute and scored the winner six minutes later through Pascal Struijk’s close-range volley.

Cardiff surrendered a two-goal lead and needed a penalty shootout to secure victory over Colchester. Rubin Colwill and Kion Etete gave Cardiff a 2-0 advantage before John Akinde and Joe Taylor equalised for Colchester before half-time.

But in the shootout, Jak Alnwick saved Colchester’s first three attempts from Jayden Fevrier, Junior Tchamadeu and Tom Hopper to secure a tie at Birmingham in the next round.
