  1. Everton 1-0 Mansfield

    Long ball through for Beto. He controls well on his chest but the rest doesn't quite go to plan as he takes too long and has the ball nicked off him.

  2. 'Grimsby have defended superbly'

    To a man Grimsby have defended superbly. Sweeney and Warren have attacked crosses well and not given Sesko any room in the six yard box.

  3. SUBSTITUTION

    Grimsby 2-0 Man Utd

    Two changes for Grimsby now as Geza David Turi and Henry Brown are on for Kieran Green and Charles Vernam.

    Grimsby are just over 20 minutes away from a huge upset.

  4. Fulham 2-0 Bristol City

    Disappointing not to have seen Bristol City really go for this one as we enter the final 10 minutes.

  5. Everton 1-0 Mansfield

    Luke Bolton drives inside on his right foot and lets fly. His effort is flying towards the top corner but James Tarkowski gets his head in the way.

    Great block!

  6. Oxford 0-5 Brighton

    Oxford have three really good chances to get a consolation but the first two are denied by Jason Steele before a third shot is cleared off the line.

  7. SUBSTITUTION

    Everton 1-0 Mansfield

    Captain Louis Reed's night is over as he comes off holding his groin. He's replaced by George Maris.

  8. 'Smart goalkeeping'

    Grimsby Town 2-0 Man Utd

    Chris Sutton
    Former Premier League striker on BBC Radio 5 Live at Blundell Park

    What a save this is from Pym. Flings himself to his left. Not only that, he got up quickly to prevent a rebound with a few United players in close attendance. Really smart goalkeeping.

  9. Fulham 2-0 Bristol City

    Anis Mehmeti sends a flat free-kick into the Fulham box. It's flicked on to the far post but no Bristol City player is following in.

    So Utd need to score 3 goals and they start the 2nd half with 3 centre backs on the pitch... I just don't get it!!! Anyone?!

  11. GREAT SAVE!

    Grimsby 2-0 Man Utd

    Bruno Fernandes has a pop from distance and the ball skids along the wet surface but Christy Pym does really well to dive across and save.

    Jack Grealish is having another fine game for Everton as he drives through the middle of the pitch but is unable to link with Thierno Barry.

  20. Grimsby Town 2-0 Man Utd

    Chris Sutton
    Former Premier League striker on BBC Radio 5 Live at Blundell Park

    United have to get the next goal first and foremost and then try to build momentum. Also they need to hope that Grimsby's intensity levels drop, they've been excellent for 55-60 minutes.
