Man Utd and Middlesbrough through to FA Cup Quarter Final

February 28th 2007 03:27
FA Cup


Manchester United and Middlesbrough will meet each other in the quarter finals of the FA Cup with wins against Reading and West Brom respectively overnight.

The Red Devils made a blistering start with all three goals in the first six minutes of the game coming from defender Gabriel Heinze and strikers Louis Saha and Ole Gunnar Solksjaer.




Reading refused to give up after this catastrophic set-back and took the game to the Premier League leaders by scoring two goals in but eventually came up short on what would have been a come-back of seismic proportions.

Middlesbrough again had to thank Socceroos striker Mark Viduka for scoring the vital equaliser that sent the game into extra-time and then penalties.

With both sides locked at 1-1 after extra-time, penalties loomed and Boro went on to win 5-4 in the shoot-out to setup a quarter final clash against Manchester United at home.

Chelsea and Tottenham through to FA cup fifth round

February 19th 2007 03:47
FA Cup


English Premier League outfits Chelsea and Tottenham went on scoring sprees in the FA cup with both teams recording 4-0 victories against Norwich and Fulham respectively.


Chelsea vs Norwich Goals



Championship side Norwich was always going to be in trouble against a Chelsea team that could summon the likes of Andriy Shevchenko and Michael Essien from off the bench in an easy match for the Blues as they begin an important week with a Champion's League fixture against Porto in mid-week.

Tottenham annihilated fellow Londoners Fulham with a 4-0 romp including two expertly taken goals by skipper Robbie Keane and substitute Dimitar Berbatov.


Fulham 0 - 4 Tottenham H.


Premiership leaders Manchester United and Arsene Wenger's Arsenal had no such luck and were both held to fifth round replays after draws at home against Reading and Blackburn respectively.
