    EFL Cup round one

    Right, not been a bad evening has it?

    Cesar Peixoto's began his reign at Wolves with their first competitive win since March after a confident 3-0 victory over Port Vale.

    Boro got the better of Wrexham as Will Lankshear marked his debut for the side by getting on the score sheet.

    But there's no better debut than that of Josh Magennis' for Stevenage. He nodded in a last second winner for the Boro to give them a 2-1 victory over Wycombe Wanderers and prevent penalties.

    That about sums it up but there's still loads more drama to come tomorrow. Join us as the action kicks off again with QPR v Millwall at 14:00 BST.

    See you there!

    Will Lankshear's first Middlesbrough goal following his summer move from Tottenham settled the tie and the Boro new boy told Sky Sports:

    "It was a really good night. I thought the boys played really, really well.

    "Everyone is really, really ambitious, everyone is really looking forward to this year and it's going to be an exciting one.

    "You get the feeling of something really positive here so it's great to be involved in that."

    Will Lankshear's goal is the difference between the two sides, as in the first half we were way too open for me, and we had to sort that out. And it was clear in the second half that they had.

    There were no opportunities in the first half for Boro, and they had to try and stop the chances from Wrexham.

    You have to give credit to Sol Brynn in net, he pulled off a few great saves in both halves.

    Will Lankshear's debut goal is the difference and it's Middlesbrough who go through.

    Wrexham had a good workout but maybe lacked a bit of sharpness up front.

  6. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:50 BST 7 August

    Middlesbrough 1-0 Wrexham

    What will surely be the final change of the night for Middlesbrough as Cruz Ibeh replaces Morgan Whittaker.

  7. INJURY TIMEpublished at 21:48 BST 7 August

    Middlesbrough 1-0 Wrexham

    There are only three minutes extra added on.

    What is going on? Wasn't seven or eight minutes now statutory?

    Oh wait, we haven't stood around for five minutes for a drink and a (tactical) chat!

  8. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 21:44 BST 7 August

    Middlesbrough 1-0 Wrexham

    This would have been a collector's item as Morgan Whittaker drills a shot against the base of the post... with his right foot!

    More good attacking from Boro with Kyle Joseph involved again and it rolls back for Whittaker to eye it and he is so close to rubber-stamping his side's passage to round two later this month.

  9. YELLOW CARDpublished at 21:43 BST 7 August

    Middlesbrough 1-0 Wrexham

    A simple call for the referee as Wrexham skipper Dom Hyam brings down Kyle Joseph to stop the Boro forward getting away.

    A yellow card all day long for the Scotland World Cup tourist.

    FT: Wycombe 1-2 Stevenage

    Josh Magennis prevents penalties at the death to put Stevenage into round two!

    The two sides were locked with a goal apiece and seem destined for the shoot-out but in the last seconds of the game, Magennis nodded in a winner for the Boro on his debut.

    What a way to make your first impression.

    Wycombe 1-2 Stevenage

    Dean Thompson

    Wycombe had the better of the second half action, but Stevenage have been the clinical finishers tonight.

    Josh Magennis has attacked that one and buried it in the net.

    GOAL: Wycombe 1-2 Stevenagepublished at 21:39 BST 7 August

    Josh Magennis (90+5 mins)

    Josh Magennis doing what he does best to win the game for Stevenage!

    The Northern Ireland striker delivers on debut to send the Boro into round two.

    The corner is swung in from the left and Magennis uses his muscle to get in the right place and head down beyond Conor Hazard.

  13. 'They look like they want to be here'published at 21:39 BST 7 August

    FT: Wolves 3-0 Port Vale

    David Kelly
    Former Wolves striker on BBC Radio WM

    They look like they want to be here, whatever happens over the next three weeks all the players look like they want to be here, and play in the gold and black of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

    These players need to back themselves to go back up this season, and I feel like they will be looking around that changing room now saying, 'I think we have enough'.

  14. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:38 BST 7 August

    Middlesbrough 1-0 Wrexham

    Will Lankshear gets a generous hand as he departs the stage.

    His first Middlesbrough may well have settled this tie and he is replaced by Fin Cartwright.

    Well at least he would, but Lankshear dawdles in getting off and Cartwright has to wait for a minute before he can come on.

    No second-half goals but Wolves get the job done on Raul Jimenez's return.

    There was hope for Port Vale after Mo Faal drew a penalty but his delivery from the spot wasn't enough to get past the cat-like Dan Bentley.

    The save took the air out of the match but while the second half wasn't the spectacle of the first, Wolves fans would have been delighted by the official homecoming of Jimenez.

    The first competitive win since March for the Wanderers, by the way. Not a bad way to kick-off the Cesar Peixoto era.

    Middlesbrough 1-0 Wrexham

    It's worth stating that Wrexham don't begin their Championship campaign until 17 August with a trip to Cardiff no less.

    With such a gap between that game and this, it's little surprise that Phil Parkinson said beforehand that he was treating this one as part of the pre-season build-up.

  17. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:34 BST 7 August

    Middlesbrough 1-0 Wrexham

    The final switch of the evening for Wrexham sees Davis Keillor-Dunn take the place of Nathan Broadhead.

    Wolves 3-0 Port Vale

    Four minutes added to this contest.

    We already know tonight's winner but that sounds like enough for a Raul Jimenez homecoming goal, don't you think?

  19. Postpublished at 21:32 BST 7 August

    Wolves 3-0 Port Vale

    Raul Jimenez is picked out just outside the box and fires.

    The cheers follow but it's trajectory isn't tricky enough for Vale keeper Jackson Smith to be bested.

    No goal on return... yet.

    Middlesbrough 1-0 Wrexham

    A chance to make the game safe for Middlebsrough, but substitute George Edmundson is off target with a header from Sebastian Berhalter's free-kick.
