Video: Louis Jackson scores stoppage-time equaliser as Manchester United U21s beat Doncaster on penalties

Scenes to take the tie to the penalties as Manchester United’s U21s went on to beat Doncaster Rovers.

The young Reds set off on their travels for another memorable night. This time, against Doncaster, in the EFL Trophy.

United took the lead after the ten-minute mark when Ethan Ennis worked magnificently hard to set up Sam Mather on the left side, who cut onto his right foot and placed the ball into the far corner.

The home side clawed their way back into the game and equalised when Joe Sbarra’s shot took a hefty deflection off Jack Kingdon before going past Dermot Mee into the United goal.

Doncaster went on to make it 3-1 in the 65th minute, at a point many thought the deficit was too great for Travis Binnion’s side. Ethan Ennis pulled one back before Louis Jackson scored a stoppage-time equaliser to force the tie to penalties.

United scored all five penalties to earn the extra point after Mee denied Broadbent from the spot.

The Reds currently lead their group with five points from two games. Their final group game is against Huddersfield Town, which won’t be easy by any stretch of the imagination.
