The final shootout ends. Shrewsbury beat Salford 4-3, the end of a football odyssey that compares favourably to that of their celebrity fan Derek Smalls. Reading beat Bromley 5-4 on pens. Nine successful attempts, then Ethon Archer sends a pea-roller straight at Joel Pereira, who had been fooling around like Joe Hart, albeit with greater success. AFC Wimbledon, so close to going out, beat Newport 5-4 on pens. Nobody’s pining for extra time, are they? Preston best Huddersfield in their shootout 4-3. Meanwhile Doncaster beat Stockport 5-4 in theirs. Burnley win their penalty shoot-out against Notts County 4-3. Kyle Walker, four times a winner of this competition with Manchester City, and once a runner-up with Spurs, smashes the deciding spot-kick home. A few penalty shoot-outs to come then. Barnsley are the first to book their place in the second round with a 6-5 win over Wigan.
