All times BST

Manchester United 1-0 Watford

Scott McTominay was captaining the side in the absence of Harry Maguire and it was the Scottish midfielder who opened the scoring after just five minutes.

Donny van de Beek was particularly impressive in midfield but going into the second half, it was still just the single goal that the home side were leading by.

Juan Mata continued to pull the strings and Jesse Lingard was impressive in a rare start, but it was the McTominay strike that was enough for the win.

Arsenal 2-0 Newcastle

Neither side were able to find the breakthrough at the Emirates and after a disappointing 90 minutes, the match went to extra-time.

Arsenal finally took the lead in the second half of extra-time, when Emile Smith-Rowe’s low strike across goal went in off the post.

And Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang then sealed the holders’ passage to the fourth round when he tapped in from close range following Kieran Tierney’s cross.

Brentford 2-1 Middlesbrough

Halil Dervişoğlu gave Brentford the lead 10 minutes before half-time.

Jerry Yates opened the scoring for League On Blackpool after 41 minutes at Bloomfield Road.

Semi Ajayi then equalised for the Baggies early in the second half.

But the Seasiders were soon 2-1 up thanks to a Gary Madine goal.

Sam Allardyce’s side then equalised again, with Matheus Pereira netting from the penalty spot in the 80th minute.

But the tie was ultimately decided by penalties and Pereira went from hero to villain as his decisive spot-kick was saved to send Blackpool through.

Bristol Rovers 2-3 Sheffield United

The Blades went in front after 13 minutes at the Memorial Stadium when Rovers goalkeeper Joe Day was unable to keep out Lys Mousset’s header.

A victory at last for Chris Wilder’s men.

Burnley 1-1 (4-3 on penalties) MK Dons

Burnley ultimately won 4-3 on penalties, with Phil Bardsley scoring the decisive spot-kick.

The Cherries then went back in front four minutes into the second half, with Rodrigo Riquelme getting the goal.

And Josh King then made it 3-1 in the 74th minute, before bagging his second of the game a few minutes later.

QPR 0-2 Fulham

It took until the 104th minute for the deadlock to finally be broken at Loftus Road, when Fulham’s Bobby Decordova-Reid found the bottom corner after a break downfield.

The Cottagers soon went 2-0 up, with Neeskens Kebano lashing a shot in at the near post.

Early kick-offs

Boreham Wood 0-2 Millwall

Goals from Kenneth Zohore and Shaun Hutchinson were enough for Millwall to see off their National League opponents at Meadow Park.

Everton 2-1 Rotherham

Cenk Tosun gave Everton the lead after nine minutes at Goodison Park.

But the away side drew level early in the second half through Matthew Olosunde.

And as the game drifted towards extra-time, Tosun thought he’d put the Toffees 2-1 up, but his second goal of the game was ruled out by VAR for offside.

However, Carlo Ancelotti’s side did retake the lead three minutes into extra-time, when Abdoulaye Doucouré calmly slotted past the goalkeeper.

And after 120 minutes, 2-1 was how it finished.

Luton 1-0 Reading

A goal from George Moncur after 31 minutes was enough for Luton to book their spot in the fourth round.

Two goals inside the first seven minutes from Kenny McLean and Jordan Hugill proved to be enough for the Canaries.

Nottingham Forest 1-0 Cardiff

Lyle Taylor’s excellent goal after three minutes proved to be decisive at the City Ground.

Chorley 2-0 Derby

Connor Hall gave National League North side Chorley the lead after 10 minutes against a depleted Derby side at Victory Park.

And the hosts went 2-0 up six minutes before full-time with a goal from Mike Calveley.
