    Man Utd 0-0 Watford

    United are straight on the attack. Daniel James fizzes a low cross in from the left but there's nobody in the middle.

    Kieran Tierney may be the best money Arsenal have ever spent. What a difference he has made to us!

    Brentford 2-1 Middlesbrough

    Luke Daniels is taking as much time as he can to clear the ball and take goal kicks. Brentford look to have this wrapped up.

    Arsenal 2-0 Newcastle

    Dwight Gayle wants a penalty after a challenge by Cedric Soares, but he's not getting it. VAR has a look and decides there wasn't enough in it.

    Richard: I thought everyone watching had at least earned a penalty shootout...

    Chris: It's time for Bruce to go and Ashley, another season of nothingness.

    Paul: Glad Smith Rowe has scored. But for having VAR he would have been sent off because of a cheat play acting. VAR did its job in overturning his red card and now he's got a goal. For once cheats aren't winning.

    It's a good move by Arsenal. Nice easy tap in for Aubameyang but Tierney's energy to keep getting in those positions. I think Arsenal have just about deserved it.

    Brentford 2-1 Middlesbrough

    Time running out for Middlesbrough.

    Djed Spence tries to thread it through but Chuba Akpom is offside. It's then fired way over the bar from the right-hand side.

    A few late changes from Neil Warnock... Rumarn Burrell and Isaiah Jones are on.

    GOAL - Arsenal 2-0 Newcastlepublished at 117 mins

    Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

    And that's it!

    Lovely move from the Gunners as Granit Xhaka slides a pass into the path of Kieran Tierney, who is still getting into excellent positions from left-back after almost two hours of football.

    The defender slides it across goal and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is there to tap in for Arsenal's second.

    Surely the holders are heading into the fourth round now.

    Smith Rowe has taken up some excellent positions since he has come on. He is going to be a real talent, someone that will be a good player hopefully for Arsenal for five or 10 years.

    He has a real good way about him and looks technically a lovely footballer.

    Plymouth looking to make it four...

    Panutche Camara cuts it back into the middle but it's excellent defending by Alex Vallejo to clear it off the line!

    It really was a lovely goal. Lacazette has just flicked it on, Smith Rowe has taken it on his chest, taken it away from the defender and the finish off the post was inch perfect.

    It has been coming, the pressure building. Unfortunately for Newcastle they have not been able to hold on.

    Emile Smith Rowe takes it really well. Full of confidence, drills it into the far corner and a good finish!

    That was the chance!

    It's curled in from the left and Chuba Akpom flicks it on. His header flies past the six-yard area and bounces just wide of the far post...

    Huddersfield don't look like scoring. Dominic Telford instead wins a smart free-kick for Plymouth after holding it up on the left.

    They won't rush it.
