As they set up a date with Manchester United, Danns admits he and his fellow youngsters are so pleased to get a chance to shine on the senior stage.
"It's a dream come true," Danns told ITV Sport post-match.
"I've supported the club since I was young, since birth, so to come on and score at the Kop end it's unreal. It doesn't feel real to me. It feels like I'm in a movie. I don't think I'll sleep tonight."
"Obviously it was (Harvey Elliott) who slipped me in," Danns added.
"I've just seen him and I thought he's got the vision to make it.
"The goalkeeper came close and when he comes that close you have to dink it. The second one was just pure joy. I didn't think it would come to me. I was happy with one but when two came I just went sliding (and) as you've seen I lost all composure."
