Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim said his side were ‘completely lost’ during an embarrassing English Football League Cup exit to fourth-tier Grimsby on Wednesday.
League Two side Grimsby won a marathon penalty shootout 12-11 after a 2-2 draw. United trailed 0-2 to goals from Charles Vernam (22nd minute) and Tyrell Warren (30th min) following a calamitous start, where goalkeeper Andre Onana was culpable yet again.
Bryan Mbeumo (75th min) had sparked a late rally from the Red Devils with his first goal for the club before Harry Maguire’s header (89th min) forced a shootout. However, Matheus Cunha and Mbeumo missed their spot-kicks as Ruben Amorim’s side sunk to a new low.
