Twitter Reacts as Middlesbrough Beat Manchester Utd in League Cup on Penalties

Middlesbrough will meet Everton in the League Cup quarter-finals after beating Manchester United on penalties following a goalless 120 minutes at Old Trafford. A disappointing Red Devils performance was capped by their fourth successive penalty shootout defeat, with Ashley Young, Michael Carrick and Wayne Rooney all failing to convert from 12 yards. Twitter was full of praise for Boro and plenty of schadenfreude for United:

In all seriousness, Man Utd fans must be devastated with the football they play. It's been awful even since Fergie left, everything's a mess
