FA Cup fourth round draw LIVE: Liverpool, Chelsea, Man City learn opponents after Arsenal vs Man Utd clash

Winger Ayumu Yokoyama scored League One leaders Birmingham City’s fastest FA Cup goal as they beat Lincoln 2-1, Lyndon Dykes doubling their advantage before Jovon Makama converted a stoppage time penalty.

Two goals from Demetri Mitchell and a third from Vincent Harper saw League One Exeter City reach round four for the first time in 44 years after a 3-1 win over Championship Oxford. The visitors led through Matt Phillips’ goal but finished with 10 men after Tyler Goodrham was sent off nine minutes from time.

Zian Flemming scored twice in extra-time as Championship promotion hopefuls Burnley finally got the better of League One Reading by winning 3-1 and Niall Ennis came off the bench to fire Stoke to a 2-1 extra-time victory in their all-Championship clash with Sunderland.

Goals from Ryan Yates and Ramon Sosa saw high-flying Nottingham Forest progress with the minimum of fuss despite making 11 changes courtesy of a 2-0 home win over Luton.

while Georginio Rutter helped himself to a double before Julio Enciso and substitute Solly March wrapped up a comfortable 4-0 win for Brighton at Norwich.

Rayan Ait-Nouri and Rodrigo Gomes fired Wolves to a 2-1 win at Championship side Bristol City, for whom Scott Twine replied with a superb free-kick, while Andreas Weimann scored the only goal to give Blackburn a 1-0 win at Championship rivals Middlesbrough.

Jamie Vardy celebrated his 38th birthday with a successful penalty as top-flight Leicester routed QPR 6-2. James Justin’s double, coupled with goals from Stephy Mavididi, Facundo Buonanotte, Vardy and Wout Faes, sent the hosts through, although Jonathan Varane and Rayan Kolli briefly dragged it back to 3-2.

Leicester boss Ruud van Nistelrooy feels his side are “getting better” after they ended a run of five consecutive defeats.

He said: “A performance where you can score six goals is always a good performance. It’s not easy, especially against a QPR side that’s very well managed, on and off the ball, and on a great run of form. To be able to score six against them is a compliment to the team.

Dango Ouattara’s double helped ease Bournemouth to a 5-1 over West Brom with Jason Kluivert, Antoine Semenyo and substitute Daniel Jebbison also scoring after Caleb Taylor had headed the visitors in front.

Boss Andoni Iraola hailed his flying wingers after Bournemouth made light of their striker crisis with a thumping 5-1 FA Cup third-round win over West Brom.

“The forwards played very well, most of them scored goals so it’s really pleasing,” said Iraola.

“Dango has played very well, he has played number nine in his national team. We have players who can help us there even if it is not their best position.

“A lot of players have played in positions they are not used to and everyone has helped us.”

On 2 December, sitting nervously in Bromley’s boardroom, assistant manager Alan Dunne and CEO Mark Hammond watched the FA Cup third-round draw unfold on a TV screen in the corner. Bromley FC were established 133 years ago and, for the first time in that long history, their club were involved in one of English football’s great rituals.

“We all wanted a massive draw but I thought all the big games had gone,” says Dunne, recalling the tension as the draw dragged on. But one Premier League giant was still out there. Their ears pricked as “Newcastle United” were announced, and when “No 6” followed, they lost their minds, screaming, hugging, beating the table.

Tosin Adarabioyo scored in both halves as Chelsea brushed aside League Two strugglers Morecambe 5-0 with Christopher Nkunku atoning for his penalty miss with a 50th-minute strike before Joao Felix found the back of the net twice in quick succession to wrap up a comfortable win.

Morgan Whittaker’s stunning late goal helped Championship strugglers Plymouth Argyle pull off a major FA Cup upset with a 1-0 victory at Premier League Brentford.

Thomas Frank’s side were not at the races at the Gtech Community Stadium prior to Whittaker’s solo 82nd-minute effort which sent Argyle, who had new manager Miron Muslic watching from the stands after Wayne Rooney’s sacking a fortnight ago, into the fourth round.

Plymouth’s leaky backline, which has conceded 53 league goals this season to leave them rooted to the bottom of the second tier, was not on display in west London as valiant defending from the likes of Brendan Galloway helped caretaker boss Kevin Nancekivell secure a memorable victory and extend Argyle’s unbeaten run since Rooney’s departure to three games.

Graham Potter’s spell as West Ham manager began with defeat as Aston Villa celebrated their 150th anniversary by fighting back to claim a 2-1 FA Cup third-round win.

Potter was in the dugout just a day after being named as sacked Julen Lopetegui’s successor and it looked like he would bring instant success as Lucas Paqueta fired West Ham into an early lead at Villa Park.

But this was a special night for Villa and they overcame a woeful first hour with goals from Andre Onana and Morgan Rogers in the space of two second-half minutes earning just their second FA Cup win in nine years.

Everton showed why change was needed as the Toffees beat Peterborough 2-0 on Thursday night in their first game since sacking Sean Dyche, writes Richard Jolly.

At Bramall Lane, Cian Ashford struck the only goal as Cardiff turned the form book upside down by dumping Sheffield United out of the FA Cup with a 1-0 win.

Ashford marked his eighth senior start for Sky Bet Championship relegation battlers Cardiff with a first-half strike that settled their third-round tie in front of a paltry crowd of just 6,126.
