Manchester United will play Southampton in the EFL Cup final, despite a 2-1 defeat at Hull City in Thursday's semi-final second leg.  Tom Huddlestone's controversial first-half penalty and Oumar Niasse's late strike earned victory for Marco Silva's side on the night, but Paul Pogba's 66th-minute goal ensured United progressed 3-2 on aggregate.
