Manchester United manager David Moyes accepted his side deserved nothing more after it was unceremoniouly bounced out of the League Cup in the semifinals by Premier League straggler Sunderland.

Moyes was hoping to reach his first final as United manager, but after United beat Sunderland 2-1 at Old Trafford in Wednesday's second-leg match to leave the aggregate score 3-3, the visiting side prevailed 2-1 in a penalty shootout.

United was up 1-0 on the night and within touching distance of the final when goalkeeper David de Gea allowed a shot from Sunderland fullback Phil Bardsley to squirm past him and into the net in the penultimate minute of extra time.
