Hull City Force Arsenal FA Cup Replay

FA Champions, Arsenal, will play a fifth-round replay at Hull City after failing to beat the championship leaders at the Emirates.

The Tigers created little, but defended admirably to frustrate Arsene Wenger in his 100th FA Cup game as Gunners manager.

Championship side, Reading, came from behind to earn a shocking 3-1 fifth round win over West Brom.

Despite falling behind to a Darren Fletcher goal in the 54th minute, goals from Paul McShane, Michael Hector and Lucas Piazon gave the Royals victory at the Madjekski stadium.

Odion Ighalo’s Watford progressed to the quarter-finals for the first time since 2007 after Scott Wootton’s own goal gifted them victory against Leeds.

Everton also secured passage to the next round with a 2-nil away victory over AFC Bournemoth.
