Brighton dumped
Newcastle out of the cup with a 1-0 win over the Premier League side at the Amex Stadium.

League Two
Crawley caused the shock of the day with a 1-0 victory over Championship outfit
Hull at the KC Stadium.
Prolific striker Matt Tubbs was the hero for Crawley with the winner on 57 minutes to send them into the fifth round of the cup for a second successive season.

Liverpool a 2-1 win over bitter rivals
Manchester United at Anfield to complete a memorable week for Kenny Dalglish's men.
Fresh from booking their place in the Carling Cup final the Reds dumped United out of the FA Cup as Kuyt struck the winner two minutes from time.

Liverpool broke the deadlock on 21 minutes when Daniel Agger grabbed a rare goal as he headed home from a corner.
United drew level six minutes before the break when Park Ji-sung swept home Rafael's cross from the right after a mistake in the home defence by Jose Enrique.
There was little in the way of goalmouth action in the second half and it seemed the game was heading for a replay until Evra failed to deal with Andy Carroll's flick-on and Kuyt latched onto the ball before drilling his shot under David de Gea two minutes from time.
Chelsea got the better of
Queens Park Rangers with Juan Mata's controversial penalty giving Andre Villas-Boas' side a 1-0 victory at Loftus Road.
Much of the focus on the game was on the Chelsea captain John Terry and QPR defender Anton Ferdinand in the wake of their racism row in the Premier League meeting between the sides in October, but there was no flashpoint between the pair.
Chelsea were awarded their hotly-disputed penalty just past the hour mark after Clint Hill was adjudged to have fouled Daniel Sturridge and Mata made no mistake from the spot to send Chelsea into the last 16.

Blackpool a replay with League One
