EFL Cup Recap: Manchester Clubs, West Ham, Spurs Advance

*Manchester United* shook off third-tier *Northampton Town* in the second half on Wednesday to win 3-1 and reach the last-16 of the EFL Cup. Wayne Rooney returned to his customary striker position for United but sent a fine chance wide after seven minutes. But United were soon ahead after a Northampton back pass led to an indirect free kick for United. Rooney's shot was blocked but came out for *Michael Carrick* to lash home. The visitors nearly had a second when Timothy Fosu-Mensah's header came off the bar, and Rooney's follow-up was correctly ruled out for offside.
