Alfie Devine scored a brilliant solo goal against Mansfield on Tuesday to help Port Vale make it to the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup for the first time in the club’s history.
Devine also found the back of the net against Cheltenham on Saturday but could not stop the Valiants from falling to a 2-1 loss.
The 19-year-old scored for the second game running yesterday at Field Mill, with the goal proving the difference between Mansfield and Port Vale in a hard-fought League Cup fourth-round tie.
The on-loan Tottenham man picked up the ball in his own half, drove into the space that opened up through the middle of the pitch and unleashed a shot from almost 30 years out that found the bottom corner.

Devine takes a glance at the goalkeeper’s positioning just before he hits the ball and realises he is out of position before passing the ball into the other corner.
The 19-year-old has once again demonstrated a natural goalscorer’s instinct and there is no doubt that he will continue finding the back of the net with regularity for Andy Crosby’s men this season.
