2110 - We're off to grab a bit of reaction from what will be a delighted United squad. I'll be back on Saturday for the MK Dons game, so join me then. And remember... Wemberlee, Wemberlee, we're the famous Carlisle United and WE'RE GOING TO WEMBLEY!
2107 - It has to be said, with the exception of Richard Keogh's attempt, they were all excellent penalties and it took two superb saves from Collin to win the game. This time last season he was playing in front of 4-500 fans at Borough Park in Workington. Next month, he could be playing at Wembley.
2105 - Unbelievable scenes as Adam Collin is mobbed by fans from the Warwick Road End after making himself the hero of the evening. Que sera sera rings out, and the United fans are singing in full voice

2057 - United are up first, it's going to be Harte to take it...
2056 - Big chance for someone to make themselves a hero here. Looks like they'll be taken at the Warwick Road End in front of the United fans.
2052 - Don't think I can put up with anymore of this! The pen shoot-out format will be simple on the min by min report - Scoreline, followed by CU or LU, then MISS, SAVE or SCORED. I'll try and put brief descriptions in but depends how quick it happens.
FULL-TIME - Carlisle United 2 Leeds United 3 - The game goes to penalties.
90+4 min - Gradel tries a shot from 30 yards that flies miles wide. Seconds later, two Leeds players start fighting, looks like it's Gradel and Kilkenny. Ref calls them both over and has a quick word. Gradel was already on a booking so is a lucky lucky boy.
90+2 min - Bradley Johnson sends in a dipping half volley that Collin has to spoon away for a corner. Snodgrass takes it but it's easily cleared by Thirlwell.
90 min - Taiwo concedes a free-kick on the left wing which Gradel will take. It's going towards the far post and Collin superbly punches away to safety under a lot of pressure. The fourth official has indicated there will be a minimum of five minutes added time at the end of the game.
89 min - Grella twists and turns before smashing a shot towards goal from 12 yards which Collin pushes away to safety.
87 min - Matty Robson is played through down the left by Madine and tries to turn inside too many times and ends up being tackled.
86 min - GOAL! Carlisle United 2 Leeds United 3 - I can't believe it. Leeds continue to push forward and McSheffrey is given time to pick out Mike Grella, who heads past Collin at the near post.
84 min - Horwood gets to the byline and cuts back a cross towards Madine but Michalik just gets in front of him to block it, with Crowe completing the clearance.
80 min - GOAL! Carlisle United 2 Leeds United 2 - Why can't these games be boring??? Free kick into the box is flicked on and Jason Crowe fires it into the roof of the net from close range.
79 min - Another yellow card, this time Adam Clayton for a foul on Michalik. United make their second change and it's Scott Dobie, who has had a superb game, coming off for Gary Madine. Leeds also make their final change, bringing off defender Richard Naylor for forward Mike Grella.
76 min - In the excitement of that goal, I put that Hurst had scored for Leeds at the top! Correct now. Meanwhile, cross from Gradel on the right sees McSheffrey head wide under pressure from Collin.
75 min - Corner to Leeds after a cross deflects behind off Clayton. McSheffrey takes it low to the near post and Thirlwell puts it behind for another corner. The second corner is better but it's a superb header away from Danny Livesey.
74 min - United make their first change, with Graham Kavanagh coming off for Tom Taiwo.
72 min - GOAL! Carlisle United 2 Leeds United 1 - United are back in front and it's a bit of a mistake at the back from Leeds. A long punt by Keogh finds Kevan Hurst. His first touch isn't the best but somehow Michalik totally misses the ball and Hurst turns to curl it into the far corner.
69 min - Leeds think they've taken the lead as the ball's headed back across goal for Crowe to head in, but the linesman's flag goes up straight away.
68 min - Robson plays his cross off Crowe and again it's a United corner. Kav goes over again to take it and it's headed up and Dobie gets on the second ball but his header back into the box is tame and easy for Ankergren to claim.
66 min - Two changes for Leeds, with Doyle and Howson coming off for Bradley Johnson and Neil Kilkenny.
64 min - Snodgrass teases Horwood on the left before whipping in a cross that's headed only as far as Gradel who smashes a shot in 12 yards out that Keogh throws himself infront of to block. Meanwhile, Gradel is pulled up for a foul on Harte and then talks himself into a booking.
63 min - Free kick to United on the left after Robson is brought down by Crowe. Harte goes over and sends in a cross but it's easily headed away by Howson.
61 min - Possible penalty shout there for Leeds as McSheffrey goes down in the area under a Thirlwell challenge but the ref's having none of it.
60 min - Keogh is brought down on the right after beating Lowry and it's a free kick to United. Looked a bit of a soft one if I'm honest! Harte comes over and whips in a shot that's got plenty of whip and pace but is straight at Ankergren.
58 min - Clayton tries his luck from 35 yards but his low powerful effort is straight at Ankergren who holds it well.
53 min - McSheffrey is caugh late by Keogh and he becomes the first United player to be booked tonight. Free kick to Leeds about 10 yards into the United half which is taken by Howson but it's a waste and easily cleared by the Blues defence.
50 min - Clayton is brought down by Johnny Howson and he becomes the second player to be booked this evening.
47 min - Tonight's attendance is 9,340.
46 min GOAL! Carlisle United 1 Leeds United 1 - Leeds start the game quickly and Gradel sees his powerful drive palmed away by Collin. From the ball back in, Harte gets his header back to Collin wrong and Snodgrass sneaks in to make it 1-1 on the night. Game on.
2001 - Both teams now back out on the pitch, surprisingly early as well. Leeds will get us underway, with United attacking the Warwick Road End in the second half.
1949 - They never fail to disappoint these games against Leeds, do they? United go into the break 1 up and it's no less than they deserve. With the exception of one chance for Becchio, Leeds have rarely threatened the United goal, with Harte and Livesey looking strong at the back. In attack, Dobie has given Michalik and Naylor a torrid time and is winning a lot of free-kicks for United. Still plenty to play for here, so make sure you comeback for the second half!
HALF-TIME - Carlisle United 1 Leeds United 0
45+1 min - Corner on the left after Robson plays the ball against Crowe. Kav goes over again to send in a right-footed inswinger and it's a better one but Ankergren comes and confidently claims the ball.
45 min - Clumsy tackle by Jason Crowe on Robson on the halfway line sees the Leeds right-back become the first player to be booked tonight. The fourth official has indicated there will be a minimum of one minute time added on.
44 min - Dobie's having a good game and he's won yet another free kick out on the left wing. Harte goes over to take this one, sending in a cross that bounces about before being played out to Robson who wins a corner on the left wing. Kav takes the corner that's flicked on by a Leeds player but is recovered by another Leeds player on the left wing.
41 min - Looks like he's going to be fine as he's back out on the pitch. No sign of any after effects for Horwood from his earlier knock either.
40 min - Adam Clayton has taken a knock and Dolly's on to have a look at him.
38 min - Leeds sloppily give away possession and Kav runs towards the area. He cuts inside before laying it off for Clayton who spots Ankergren off his line but gets too much on his chip and it's a goal kick.
37 min - Corner to Leeds on the left after Clayton tries to play a clearance against a Leeds player but it comes back off him. McSheffrey takes it but it's cleared back out to him and then his second cross is well cleared by Danny Livesey.
35 min - Chance for Leeds to get an instant reply, as Snodgrass and Becchio link up to play McSheffrey in but he tries a first time shot that's straight into Collin's hands. The on-loan Birmingham player had far more time than he realised there, could have easily taken a touch.
33 min - GOAL! Carlisle United 1 Leeds United 0 - United take the lead and it's the on-loan Man City midfielder Adam Clayton! Dobie battles for the ball with two defenders and somehow pokes it through to Clayton who is through one-on-one with Ankergren and cooly slots it into the far corner.
31 min - Horwood is off for the mean time while Kav takes the corner, but it's cleared to safety by Howson. Horwood's now back on and seems to be fine.
30 min - Corner to United on the left-wing after Gradel blocks a Horwood cross. The United left back has picked up a knock in the process and is having to receive some treatment from Dolly before the kick can be taken.
23 min - Horwood gets totally done by Gradel who gets to the edge of the area and sends in a cross that's deflected up and headed away to safety before United are awarded a free kick. The ref wants a word with Becchio now - clearly not taking well to Leeds' physical approach so far.
22 min - Kav takes it again and it's a better one that has Ankergren flapping at it but he just about gets it to safety.
21 min - Dobie is fouled yet again by Naylor and it's another free kick in the same position. The ref wants a word with Naylor and that's his last warning.
19 min - Free kick is taken by Kav but doesn't beat the first man and ends up as a throw-in to United on the right-wing.
18 min - Dobie's getting pulled all over the place by Naylor and it's another free-kick to United. This one's on the left-wing corner of the Leeds penalty area.
16 min - Believe it or not, the game's got a bit scrappy. That doesn't happen very often in these games!
10 min - Free kick to Leeds after a foul on Doyle by Kavanagh. Howson takes it and it's a great ball into the box that Becchio gets his head onto and Collin pulls off a smart save. Wouldn't have counted though as the linesman flag was up for offside.
9 min - First chance for the visitors and it's very close to being the opening goal. Snodgrass appears to control a long ball with his arm but the ref waves away protests. He lays it off for Becchio who hits a first time left foot volley just inches wide of Collin's left hand post.
8 min - Foul on Dobie on the left wing gives United a free kick about 30 yards out. Harte sends a cross into the box that Livesey gets on the end of it but he gets under the ball and it's well over.
6 min - Hurst tries to lift a Horwood pass over the top for Dobie who looks to muscle Michalik off the ball but the referee Mr Hall doesn't see it that way and awards a foul to Leeds.
4 min - Good low cross from Robson at the byline to give United a corner on the left-wing. Kav goes over and takes a right-footed inswinger that's flicked out to the right-wing where Hurst beats his man but his cross is poor and Keogh fouls a Leeds player as it's cleared again, giving the visitors a bit of respite.
2 min - The resulting corner from Kav is cleared to the edge of the box where Clayton heads it back in but it's booted to safety by a Leeds defender.
1 min - Early chance for United as Clayton plays Horwood into the box but his low cross is put behind by Ankergren.
1900 - So the two teams are now out and it's going to be United to get us underway, kicking towards the Waterworks End in the first half. Kav and Hurst get us underway!
1854 - Well here's a nice surprise before kick-off... Martin Hudson is on the pitch and has introduced two United legends to the fans - Dean Walling and Steve Hayward, who both starred in the last Blues side to make it to Wembley in 1997.
1847 - The ground's really starting to fill up now, with the Warwick Road End looking particularly busy this evening. The lads are heading back in now to get ready and have been given a great reception from all the Blues fans in the ground.
1840 - Just to clear up a couple of the rules/potential scenarios for tonight's game. There is NO away goals rule or extra time for tonight's game, so if Leeds were to win by one goal, the game would go straight to a penalty shoot out.
1835 - For visitor's Leeds there's also just one change, with former United loanee Jermaine Beckford missing out after picking up an injury in The Whites 2-2 draw at Hartlepool this weekend. He's replaced by Robert Snodgrass.
1830 - So just one change for United from the side that drew 1-1 with Huddersfield Town - Darryl Duffy who is cup-tied for tonight's game, drops out and Scott Dobie makes his start since returning from a three match suspension. Just the five subs tonight due to competition rules in the JPT, with Richard Offiong returning after missing out at the weekend. Like Duffy, Saturday's goalscorer Ben Marshall misses out due to being cup-tied.
1825 - Evening everyone and welcome to tonight's game, which I'm sure you already know is a pretty big one. With a one goal lead from the first leg, United are just 90 minutes away from their first trip to the new Wembley Stadium. Standing in there way are Leeds United, a side that we've had some fairly exciting clashes with in the last few seasons and tonight looks set to be no different. Full team for both teams now up at the top of the page!
