Fleetwood Town produced arguably the greatest upset in EFL Cup history after dumping Premier League champions Arsenal out of the competition on Tuesday night.
The League Two minnows were the colossal 22/1 outsiders prior to kick-off with the Gunners installed as the heavy 1/20 favourites.
However, that ultimately proved for very little as Matt Lawlor's side produced a truly herculean effort to secure themselves of a first ever spot in the quarter-finals of the EFL Cup.
Arsenal, who were reduced to 10 men late on when youngster Max Dowman's frustrations boiled over following a heavy challenge from Harrison Neal, were guilty of spurning numerous opportunities, but don't let that take away from what the home side achieved.
Spured on by Grimsby Town's memorable victory over Manchester United 12 months earlier, Fulham loanee Aaron Loupalo-Bi set the wheels in motion for another historic night in the EFL Cup when he broke the deadlock 21 minutes in.
The forward used his strength to hold of the challenge of a couple of Gunners defenders, surged through on goal and superbly thumped the ball past the onrushing Ilian Meslier.
After Kai Havertz had missed a handful of chances to level matters for the visitors, Swedish star Viktor Gyokeres finally broke Fleetwood's resistance with his first domestic goal in almost six months shortly after the interval.
You expected the Premier League heavyweights to up the ante and take the game away from a side 84 places below them in the football ladder, though to the frustration of Arteta that never transpired.
Instead, the Cod Army, who had lost each of their last two fixtures leading into the encounter, defended for their lives with goalkeeper Jay Lynch coming to their rescue on the odd occasion his backline was breached.
A sensational save to deny substitute Ben White in the 91st minute felt hugely significant at the time, but the importance of that was dwarfed by the 33-year-old's penalty save to thwart Brazilian superstar Bruno Guimarães a few moments later.
That save, the first and only missed penalty of the shootout, proved decisive as Northern Irishman Conor Haughey stepped up and displayed composure beyond his 19-years to fire the ball into the top corner to seal the most unlikely victory for his side.
The goal cued wild celebrations as frenzied fans engulfed the pitch on the Fylde coast to adorn their heroes.
For Arsenal, well they were left humbled at Highbury in a way they had never been before.
