Mitchell's late goal beat Luton

Exeter beat Luton 1–0 on 26 September 2023, with Demetri Mitchell scoring in the 83rd minute. The League One side had kept their Premier League visitors out before taking the lead near the end of the third-round tie.

Mitchell was then sent off in the 88th minute after a second booking. Exeter had to protect the advantage with ten men during the closing stages, and did so. The winner and dismissal were distinct events, with the goal coming first.

The match account records 7,360 spectators and describes Luton's late attempts to find a route through. For Grecians supporters looking back, the decisive sequence is straightforward: a long goalless spell, Mitchell's finish and a tense period defending the lead. It was a victory in normal time, rather than a tie Exeter won after taking penalties.

Four home ties in the 2023/24 campaign

Exeter began with a 2–1 win against Crawley, then drew 1–1 with Stevenage and won the shoot-out 5–3. The Luton victory secured a fourth-round meeting with Middlesbrough, who won 3–2 despite two goals from Ryan Trevitt.

All four ties were at home. The route combined a narrow opening win, penalty progress, the Luton clean sheet and a five-goal exit. The Grecian Archive lists the dates and scorers together, making it possible to follow the complete campaign rather than only its best-known result.

The same archive identifies Exeter's 7–0 win at Cheltenham on 9 August 2022 as their biggest League Cup victory. That earlier campaign ended in the next round on penalties at Gillingham. The seven-goal opening night and the later Luton run belong to consecutive seasons, not successive rounds of one cup journey.
