MK Dons' win over Man Utd what 'dreams are made of' - Robinson

MK Dons boss Karl Robinson has hailed his side following their stunning 4-0 win over Manchester United in the Capital One Cup on Tuesday night.

Goals from loanees Will Grigg and Benik Afobe allowed the League One club to achieve the shock result over the Premier League heavyweights and Robinson was in dreamland when speaking to Sky Sports after the match.

"I'm a little bit shocked to be walking off and seeing the scoreline," Robinson said.

"It's ridiculous, it's something that dreams are made of for these players.

"We work hard here and you've seen a youthful energy in the team."

A jubilant Robinson added: "They've got the superstars in the side and they're the ones that are in the public eye on a daily basis, an hourly basis to an extent, we're not.

"So it's always easy to pick negatives in people than push the positives on the other people.

"I think my players deserve an awful lot of credit tonight. The football club does and Milton Keynes does.

"This is a game for Milton Keynes as a city."
