Swindon captain Gordon Greer missed the crucial spot-kick as Premier League Wolves edged their League One opponents 6-5 on penalties in the Carling Cup.
Greer had to score to keep his side in the tie after Wolves netted all six of their penalties, but smashed his spot-kick against the post.
Swindon's Anthony McNamee came closest to scoring in 120 minutes when his first-half strike skimmed the crossbar.
Team-mate Mark Marshall also struck the woodwork, along with Wolves' Sam Vokes.
Swindon manager Danny Wilson told BBC Wiltshire:
"I thought we put a fantastic performance on, they couldn't give us anymore.
"They've come to a very tough place and put in a performance they will feel very, very proud of.
"It's nervy as the penalties go down. When you get to touching distance its disappointing to go out."
