Premier League woes continue for Everton as Luton march on in FA Cup

Both Everton and Luton, with eyes firmly fixed on Premier League survival, avoided a replay in the FA Cup after a dramatic 1-1 draw. Mykolenko’s own goal put Luton ahead, but Krul’s second-half blunder gifted an equalizer to Harrison.

Just when it seemed destined for a replay, Woodrow popped up in the 96th minute to steal victory for the Hatters.

Meanwhile, Brighton thrashed Sheffield United 5-2 thanks to a Pedro hat-trick, while Leicester cruised past Birmingham 3-0 and Leeds drew 1-1 with Plymouth, forcing a replay.

All eyes now turn to Newcastle’s late kick-off against Fulham, with the Magpies chasing their first FA Cup win in 69 years.
