QPR 0 Sunderland 0: Story of the night as Cats win dramatic Carabao Cup tie on penalties

The game finished goalless in normal time, as Rangers substitute Charlie Austin saw a goal ruled out for offside in the final ten minutes.

The match then went straight to penalties, as Aiden McGeady, Ross Stewart and Alex Pritchard converted from the spot.
