The Stags finished seventh in League Two before knocking out Northampton, who finished outside the automatic promotion places despite being level on points and goal difference with Bristol Rovers who won 7-0 on the last day to steal the place.
Port Vale were involved in breathless drama on home soil as they missed two of their opening three penalties in a shootout with Swindon on Thursday night.
Swindon had a chance to win the tie but missed their last penalty to take it into sudden death. They missed again and Vale triumphed 6-5 on penalties. They now have a golden opportunity to return to League One after five seasons away.
