Fleetwood Town made the third round of the Carabao Cup for the first time in their history after beating Port Vale.

Paddy Madden gave the hosts an early lead as his deflected shot wrong-footed Port Vale keeper Dino Visser.

Vale could have levelled five minutes later but Theo Robinson missed a close-range chance while Visser saved well from Ched Evans soon after.

Danny Whitehead levelled shortly after the restart but a powerful Josh Morris volley from 15 yards sealed victory.

Since being promoted to the Football League in 2012 the Cod Army had only made it out of the first round once before this season and had never won a game in normal time in the competition until their 3-2 victory over Wigan in the previous round earlier this month.

Joey Barton's side will host either Everton or Salford City in the third round.

Fleetwood Town manager Joey Barton told ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Lancashire:

"My hair's gone a little bit greyer than it should have been, but that was the same on Saturday.

"We've got to become more clinical in front of goal because as the challenge gets higher and higher and the stakes get higher and higher the better sides you play.

"In the next round you could play a Premier League side and you won't get too many of those chances, so it's important that you put them away.

"We're creating the chances, I would just want them to be a little bit more ruthless."

Port Vale manager John Askey told ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Stoke:

"We're disappointed that we've not won, but it shows that we've come quite a way to make 10 changes and still compete against Fleetwood's first team.

"We come out of it still confident, we wanted to try and keep the run going and it looked as like we would in the second half, we upped it second half, the lads got used to playing against a League One side and created one or two chances.

"That was the pleasing thing, that we still created chances."
