- Stockport took an 11th-minute lead through Adama Sidibeh, but Emilio Lawrence equalized in the 22nd minute before Wells struck in the 39th minute to put Luton ahead.
- Manager Jack Wilshere earned his first honor in his debut season as Luton's manager; the victory marked the club's 10th Wembley appearance, joining memories of their 1988 League Cup win.
- The victory provides momentum for Luton's League One promotion push after successive relegations, while Stockport's Wembley record remains bleak with only one win in seven trips.
