A historitc game for MK Dons here tonight and thank you for following my live score on VAVEL. 

21:55. Full-time! It is 4-0 to MK Dons here and this is arguably one of the biggest games in the history of the club. 

21:52. The ball falls to Anderson in the area and he some how manages to blast the ball over the bar to sarcastic cheers from the Manchester United away fans.  

21:51. Four minutes of extra time here. Can United get just one? 

21:49. Manchester United's away fans are having a party in the away end. 1000's of fans jumping up and down and jeering their own players as shots go wide or players lose possession. 

21:46. James Wilson nearly nets for Manchester United as he has a pint blank header saved very well by Martins. Nothing going for United here tonight. 

21:42. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLL! It is simply amazing here at Stadium MK! It is currently 4-0 to MK Dons as Afobe has just scored again. He picks up the ball near the United box and runs at the defence. He should of been tackled, some how keeps the ball and drills it home.  

21:42. Chants of "We will never die" from Manchester United's away fans as they endure a torrid time. 

21:39. Januzaj has a shot blazed straight into the post and nothing is going Manchester United's way tonight. 

21:35. Adnan Januzaj was unable to cross the ball away from Martin, it was saved with ease. 

21:35. One of the most stupid attempts of a shot ever from Hernandez. Pereira scuffs his shot wide and by chance it falls to Hernandez who tries a spinning shot into the net. Bizzare to say the least. 

21:32. Hernandez then crosses the ball into the box and some how Welbeck and Evans miss the ball. Cleared by MK Dons.  

21:31. James Wilson with a stunning shot but an equally stunning save by Martin turns it away. 

21:29. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!! Afobe has scored for MK Dons after slotting it past David De Gea into the corner of the net. The lead up to the play was again caused by United giving the ball away. 

21:26. Grigg is prevented a chance of getting his hat-trick as he is subbed off. 

21:23. This could just be game over for Manchester United who are now 2-0 down. 

21:22. Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal MK DONS!!!!! Manchester United again give the ball away cheaply and a superb ball by Reeves straight to Griggs, who shoulders the ball into the net from several yards out. Great finish from the MK Dons. 

21:18. Manchester United have a good chance from Danny Welbeck shot just wide. He turns his man and fires a strong shot just past the post. 

21:15. The costless-kick is blasted high over the bar and Manchester United's woes continue. 

21:14. Manchester United have earnt themselves a costless-kick on the edge of the MK Dons box, near the goal line. 

21:10. Reece James is clearly a frustrated player on the pitch and takes out an MK Dons player. It was an un-needed challenge and picks up a yellow card. 

21:09. There are huge penalty appeals all around the ground as the ball smashes into Evans arm in the penalty area, clearly struck his arm but the official judges it to have been ball to hand. 

21:07. Two corners in a row for Manchester United and neither come close to paying off for Manchester United. Reece James gifts MK Dons the possession back again. 

21:04. We are back underway here at Stadium MK. Andreas Pereira on, Saidy Janko off.

20:48. Half-time: MK Dons 1-0 Manchester United 

20:47. Manchester United's young side are playing very poorly so far and MK Dons are looking confident on the ball, unlike the Manchester United players who can't pass to their own teammates so far. 

20:42. The last few minutes have had little drama to note and Manchester United are yet to really get going since conceding. The away fans behnd the goal are starting to get agitated. 

20:36. Manchester United's passing have been very, very poor since they conceded. It is not aiding them towards a comeback. 

20:32. Powell with a thunderous effort after being laid off by Hernandez, again just goes over the bar. Was not going to be saved by Martin if that was on target. 

20:32. Carruthers has a long range effort which was easily saved by De Gea, but MK Dons are now shoing more intent. 

20:30. Manchester United now look shaken as Keane gives possession away unchallenged. Poor from the Premiership club. 

20:28. United try to reply instantly but Janko's cross hits the first man, MK Dons looking a lot more confident now and are pressing high up the pitch. 

20:25. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL MK DONS!!! Evans with a idiotic pass in his own area while MK Dons players were pressing hard. It was intercepted and passed to Will Grigg who passes into an open goal. 

22:22. Lewington wastes an extended amount of MK Dons possession, with a wild shot over the bar from distance. 

21:21. Welbeck time after time is opening up the MK Dons defence but Hernandez is unable to capitalise as of yet.

20:20. Adnan Januzaj has been subbed on after Kagawa suffered a minor clash of heads earlier in the match. 

20:19. Adnan Januzaj is being prepared already and it seems Kagawa will be subbed off. 

20:14. MK Dons are yet to create any good chance unlike Manchester United, however they are now firmly in this game running at the Manchester defence with more confidence. However no final ball to be seen. 

20:10. Manchester United player Kagawa playing in the 'Mata' role runs at the MK Dons defence and slips in a near perfect ball to striker Danny Welbeck, but the Dons keeper Martin was able to rush out and collect the ball just in time. 

20:08. Manchester United's very young side have complete control so far off the game. Dominating possession and creating a few chances early on. 

20:05. MK Dons looking very nervous so far tonight. The defenders have clearly dropped back several yards to try and prevent Welbeck beating them with pace.

20:03. Great start so far for the Premier League side. Reece James beats his man on the left after Kagawa slipped the ball to the young defender. He passed the ball to midfielder Powell whose curling first time just went over the bar.

20:01. Great counter-attack by Manchester United solely led by Danny Welbeck, who breaks on the left after turning his marker. His cross finds Hernandez, who slips as he is about to take his shot. 

20:00. And we are off! MK Dons kick off.

19:57. Both teams line up for handshakes and both sets of fans can be heard very clearly. 

19:55. Just 5 minutes to go until kick-off and Stadium MK is packed to capacity for this game. 

19:50. Very young team for Manchester United here today but MK Dons manager Karl Robinson still claims that the players will be of a very good standard, telling Sky Sports 1 HD that "Manchester United do not have bad players."

18:50. New signing Marcos Rojo who joined Manchester United for £16 million and Nani on loan, from Sporting Lisbon last week has yet to have his work permit situation resolved. So will be unable to play as it stands.  

18:48. Manchester United also have several youngsters who have caught the eye recently. Blacket and Michael Keane are both impressing for the Red Devils reserves and fellow youngster James Wilson is firmly knocking on the door after four goals against Manchester City's youth academy a couple of weeks back. 

18:44. One youngster at MK Dons who is earning heaps of praise at this moment in time is 18 year old local lad, Delle Ali who was recently scouted by sides such as Liverpool. He is capeable of scoring and assisting his team-mates and he has been capped by both England under-17's and 18's.

18:39. MK Dons manager Karl Robinson openly stated to the Daily Mail that he has a huge amount of respect for Van Gaal claiming his clubs youth system is based on the way Van Gaal ran the Dutch youth system. "Here, I have a numerical system. All MK Dons No 8s through the age range will look the same, all No 6s will drop into the same places. They do that in Holland, at Ajax. It is very Dutch."

18:36. The United manager also went on to claim that Robin Van Persie should of had a penalty. "I think [the referee] could also have given a penalty to van Persie. You could say he was already falling but the tackle was coming – some referees would have given that. Nevertheless, we need to be creating more chances, rather than just relying on penalties."

18:35. When asked about Young's apparent dive in which he was booked for going down in the area, Van Gaal stated. "I don’t think it was dive because he was touched by the opponent. After that he did exaggerate, but what counts is that he was kicked by the opponent."

18:33. "In the second half we played much better but we could have created more. We missed too many passes – it was either too slow or too hasty, and then you lose the ball and the tempo is gone from the game. That, in my opinion, was the reason [for not winning]."

18:31. Louis Van Gaal went on to say; "We have already warned our players not to give set-pieces away and we gave a lot away; then they scored from one, which is disappointing."

18:30. After the draw to Sunderland at the weekend, where a Jack Rodwell goal his first for his new side, cancelled out Mata's early strike, Louis Van Gaal had this to say to SkySports. ""In the first half we played an equal match with Sunderland," "We didn’t create much other than the first goal, which was fantastic."

18:29. However they will be without goalkeeper David Martin and full-back Lee Hodson.  

18:29. MK Dons fans will be releived to know that midfielder Samir Carruthers is expected to be fit to play, after featuring from the bench last weekend against Coventry.

18:28. Manchester United will have to cope with out Smalling who is injured with a groin injury and most likely new boy Ander Herrera who has a slight ankle knock.  

18:27. Manchester United manager Louis Van Gaal is currently looking for his first win in charge of the Red Devils, with a loss to Swansea and a draw to Sunderland so far. 

18:25 Manchester United as all sides of their stature should be expected to, have won 5 out of their last 6 games against lower league sides.  

18:20 This is the first time also that Manchester United have played in the League Cup 2nd Round, since 1995. They were shocked 4-3 by York on aggregate that year. 

18:15 MK Dons have a decent record against Premier League clubs in the League Cup, winning 2 out of 6.

18:10 MK Dons and Manchester United have never faced each other so tonight will be a historic moment for the Milton Keynes based club. Who came into existence controversially back in 2004.
