Swindon Town exited the EFL cup at the first round of asking this evening, but not before giving Championship outfit Norwich City one hell of a scare.

 

Town took the lead on the 25th minute, Oliver Lancashire heading home a free-kick to put the visitors ahead.

 

The lead was short lived, however, as Cameron Jerome levelled things up just 2-minutes later.

 

James Maddison added a third shortly before half-time, but Town rallied and dragged themselves back into the game with 30 minutes left on the clock.

 

Town were on top now, with only a fantastic save from the Norwich keeper denying the Wiltshire side extra time.
