Walsall left-back Rico Henry has been named among the Capital One Cup's Round 2 - 'Team of the Round', following the Saddlers' mid-week victory over Brighton and Hove Albion.

With suggestions coming in from fans on social media, the Football League have selected 11 players and a manager to make up their Capital One Cup Team of Round 2.

Rico grabbed a late winner as Walsall fought back from behind to beat Brighton & Hove Albion, in a battle between two clubs who went into the clash undefeated in 2015/16. The Saddlers went behind to the Seagulls – who currently lie second in the Sky Bet Championship – but two second-half goals, including Henry's strike, saw the League 1 high-flyers progress.

Also among the XI were; Mark Gillespie (Carlisle United), Scott Cuthbert (Luton Town), Tom Clarke (Preston North End), Ryan Woods (Shrewsbury Town), Junior Stanislas (Bournemouth), Gerard Deulofeu (Everton), Florian Thauvin (Newcastle United), Jermain Defoe (Sunderland), Joe Dodoo (Leicester City), Scott Sinclair (Aston Villa), and manager Guy Luzon (Charlton Athletic).
