Luton were knocked out of the Carabao Cup after a third round 1-0 defeat at League One side Exeter City yesterday evening.
A late goal from Deme Mitchell was enough for the Grecians to go through, and to find out how the Hatters rated on the night, see below.

13. Jacob Brown (SUB): 4
Came on with Wells on 62 minutes in a bid to pep up the Hatters' attacking input during the final half an hour, but failed to have any serious impact, as although he was neat and tidy in possession, didn't ever look like either creating an opportunity for Luton to draw level, or netting the equaliser himself.

14. Lamine Fanne (SUB): 4.5
Had his run of three successive league starts ended as he dropped to the bench to allow Wilshere to go with a more experienced midfield at St James Park. When it wasn't really working, he was introduced for the final 15 minutes or so, but with the Hatters' efforts to grab a leveller becoming ever so slightly desperate at that point, he wasn't able to find a way through a solid Exeter back-line.

15. Zack Nelson (SUB): 4.5
Youngster was Wilshere's final throw of the dice when he came on with Fanne for the latter stages, but in what was becoming an increasingly congested midfield zone at that point, he wasn't able to prevent Town falling to defeat from their opening game of 2026. Photo: Liam Smith
