Manchester United suffered a 2-1 defeat to Hull City at the KCOM Stadium on Thursday in the second leg of their EFL Cup semi-final but sneaked through to the final, winning 3-2 on aggregate.

Tom Huddlestone halved the overall deficit in the tie in the 35th minute of Thursday's contest, smashing home a penalty for the Tigers after Marcos Rojo's foul on Harry Maguire.

After the break, the Red Devils upped the ante and levelled in the 65th minute through Paul Pogba. A late goal for Oumar Niasse in his first start for the club made the last five minutes nervy for United, but they did enough to keep their aggregate lead intact.
