On resumption, United’s Bryan Mbeumo halved the score in the 75th minute and defener Hurry Maguire leveled the score in the 89th minute to force the match into penalties.
In the shootouts, Grimsby lost the third shot through Oduor but United missed the winning 5th shot where Matheus Cunha penalty was saved forcing them into sudden death.
As Grimsby shot all, Bryan Mbeumo missed the shot by hitting the crossbar to send Grimsby Town into the third round of the Carabao Cup.
