Jay Lynch of Fleetwood Town celebrates saving Arsenal's fourth penalty taken by Bruno Guimaraes (Getty)

League Two side Fleetwood pulled off a stunning upset as they beat Arsenal 5-4 on penalties in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night.

The game finished 1-1 after Fleetwood went in front through Aaron Loupalo-Bi in the 21st minute, before Arsenal equalised early in the second half thanks to Viktor Gyokeres.

The Gunners finished the match with 10 men after teenage wonderkid Max Dowman was sent off for kicking out at an opponent after a heavy tackle.

Fleetwood managed to convert all five of their penalties, while Bruno Guimaraes saw his effort saved as Arsenal crashed out.

Fleetwood are now into the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup following a remarkable victory over the defending Premier League champions.
