Here are our five talking points from Leeds United's 1-1 draw with Salford City at Peninsula Stadium in the Carabao Cup as the hosts pull off a 9-8 penalty-shootout victory following goals from Matt Smith and Pascal Struijk
For the fourth time in six years, Leeds United have exited the EFL Cup in round two. And yet, almost everyone of a Whites persuasion will wake up this morning wondering how it happened.

He would go this way and that, proving too tricky for defenders to lay a glove on him before finding a team-mate or the goalkeeper throughout the evening.
On Tuesday night, he would play at right-back, but he played at left-back on Saturday, right-wing against Birmingham City and West Bromwich Albion, as well as midfield against Shrewsbury Town. Shackleton’s versatility is one appeal to Farke, but his work rate, fitness, determination, attitude and reliability have left the manager purring.
His first experience as skipper also came in the cup, but at Cardiff in January. That was a difficult afternoon in Wales and last night was not without its challenges. There were question marks about his defending of Matt Smith’s opener, but Struijk rallied and found the equaliser the team needed before a very well-taken penalty as the second man up.
Kristoffer Klaesson, for example, looks likely to play virtually no senior minutes this season, as it stands, with Karl Darlow and Illan Meslier in place. At 22, the Norwegian may not find that arrangement agreeable and look for something before Friday’s deadline.
