In the end, it was a golden night for Crystal Palace. The Championship side are in the League Cup semi-finals for the first time in 10 years, taking advantage of a drab performance from Manchester United to knock out the Premier League champions after extra time.
This was their first victory at Old Trafford since 1989 and, for that, they were indebted to their substitutes. Darren Ambrose put them ahead, picking out the top corner with a cannon of a shot from fully 35 yards, and Glenn Murray headed in the winner after Federico Macheda's penalty had prolonged the night by another 30 minutes.
