GRIMSBY, England — Ruben Amorim apologized to Manchester United supporters after his reign reached a new low with a humiliating elimination from the League Cup by fourth-tier Grimsby Town on Wednesday.

United appeared to have got out of jail at Blundell Park when Harry Maguire's 89th-minute header made it 2-2 after it had trailed 2-0 following a woeful first-half display.

But a marathon penalty shootout ended 12-11 in Grimsby's favor after new signing Bryan Mbeumo, who had begun United's fightback, saw his spotkick bounce back off the crossbar.

Grimsby was deserved winner, outplaying its illustrious guest at times and seeming more up for the fight.

Amorim cryptically said the players "spoke really loud today about what they want" — apparently suggesting they did not fancy the challenge against the League Two team.

When asked to explain what went wrong, a worryingly familiar question since he took charge last season, the Portuguese did not hold back. "Everything. The way we started the game, we were not even here. When everything is so important in our club, everything that happened, it's a problem in our club, we should do so much better. I just have to say sorry to our fans.

"I felt my players spoke really loud today about what they want. I think it's easy for you (how to interpret it).Let's focus on the next game, and then we have the break for the international games. We will think things through.

"Doesn't matter (that we lost on penalties). In the penalties, the feeling is the same. I think football was really fair today. The best team won."
