  3. Toney accepts breaking FA betting rulespublished at 22:38 Greenwich Mean Time 28 February 2023

    Before we head off worth pointing you in the direction of another of today's big stories...

    Brentford striker Ivan Toney has accepted breaking Football Association betting rules ahead of his appearance before a disciplinary panel.

    It means the 26-year-old is potentially facing a lengthy ban.

    Toney was charged with 232 breaches in November and a further 30 in December.

    It is understood he has admitted many of the offences but is contesting others. FA rule E8 bans players from betting on games, or sharing information for betting purposes.

    The alleged breaches took place between 25 February 2017 and 23 January 2021, during which time Toney represented Scunthorpe United, Wigan Athletic, Peterborough United and Brentford.

    The forward has scored 14 goals in 21 Premier League games this season, helping Brentford to ninth in the table and leaving them in contention for European qualification. However, any ban for Toney could dent their chances of playing European football next season.

    It would also affect the forward's chances of an England call-up with European Championship qualification games against Ukraine and Italy coming up in March.

  4. Motty tributespublished at 22:34 Greenwich Mean Time 28 February 2023

    There were tributes paid to legendary football commentator John Motson before tonight's matches and this was the scene at Craven Cottage before Fulham's match with Leeds.

    Phil Foden scored twice as Manchester City saw off Championship side Bristol City to reach the FA Cup quarter-finals.

    Foden slammed in an early opener at the back post from Riyad Mahrez's ball across the six-yard box.

    He netted his second from Julian Alvarez's pass, with a first-time effort deflecting past Max O'Leary.

    Kevin de Bruyne added a wonderful third from 25 yards into the bottom corner late on for the visitors.

    Bristol City, who had been unbeaten in 12 games going back to 26 December, gave a good account of themselves for long spells, with a Mark Sykes penalty appeal waved away and Alex Scott forcing a save from Stefan Ortega.

    But treble-chasing Manchester City could have won by more, with Kalvin Phillips hitting the crossbar after just one minute.

    Championship high-fliers Blackburn Rovers caused an FA Cup fifth round upset by stunning Premier League Leicester City.

    Rovers, fourth in the table and aiming for a return to the top flight where they have not played for more than a decade, were more than a match for 2021 cup winners Leicester.

    Their dynamic display, in which they should have scored more goals, gave them a place in the last eight for the first time in eight years.

    Having been denied by Daniel Iversen's flying save, Tyrhys Dolan curled past Leicester's Danish goalkeeper for the opener.

    Ryan Hedges then missed a gilt-edged opportunity to double the visiting side's lead at the start of the second period when he failed to hit the target from 10 yards out.

    It didn't prove costly as Sammie Szmodics wriggled clear to convert Rovers' second in the 52nd minute, while the midfielder also had a goal ruled out for offside.

    Substitute Kelechi Iheanacho pulled one back for the Foxes by slotting in from close range, but a dull and dreary night ended in disappointment for Brendan Rodgers' men.

    Fulham scored two spectacular goals to reach the quarter-finals of the FA Cup for the first time since 2010 as Leeds slipped to a first defeat under new manager Javi Gracia.

    Portugal midfielder Joao Palhinha set the Cottagers on their way with an outstanding curling finish from about 30 yards which went in off the post.

    Leeds responded by hitting the post through Georginio Rutter's looping header, while they also had two goals - from Rutter and Wilfried Gnonto - ruled out.

    Gnonto also forced a fine save from Marek Rodak before the visitors conceded a second, Manor Solomon scoring for the fourth successive game with a strike past Illan Meslier from the edge of the box after exchanging passes with Aleksandar Mitrovic.

  8. Brighton still in contention for first major trophy - read the reportpublished at 22:24 Greenwich Mean Time 28 February 2023

    Brighton's hopes of securing a first major trophy remain alive as Evan Ferguson's first-half goal proved enough to secure a place in the FA Cup sixth round.

    Ferguson's far-post effort saw off a battling Stoke outfit, who came closest to equalising when defender Axel Tuanzebe sent a far-post header across goal and narrowly wide.

    It is Brighton's third quarter-final appearance in six years, having previously only been there twice in their entire history.

    They reached the final in 1983, when they were beaten in a replay by Manchester United, and the semi-final in 2019, when they lost to Manchester City.

    Roberto de Zerbi's men failed to reach the heights that allowed them to beat Liverpool in the previous round, but with skipper Lewis Dunk turning in another impressive defensive display on his 400th appearance for the club, they always had a measure of control against their Championship opponents, who could have taken an early lead when Tyrese Campbell's effort was kept out by Jason Steele.

    After the match, De Zerbi spoke of the club's ambitions for the rest of the season: "I can't promise anything but I can promise we will work hard every day to make them [the fans] happy and proud.

    "I understand they want to win a trophy and competition. To win, we need to work and improve. For the moment we have the possibility to arrive in Europe."

    Leicester's 2-1 defeat to Blackburn tonight, is the first time they have lost to a side from a lower division since March 2001, when they lost 2-1 to Wycombe Wanderers.

    Sorry to trawl that one back up Foxes fans.

    FT: Bristol City 0-3 Man City

    Bristol City manager Nigel Pearson speaking to ITV: "The thing that pleases me most is we were true to ourselves and didn't try and change the way we play and our identity to just make it more difficult for them.

    "The game was as we thought. There'd be opportunities for us but we didn't quite take them and things didn't quite work out as we'd have liked when we got them and decisions.

    "I'm pleased about how the players stretched themselves and basically went toe-to-toe with the best team in this country.

    "Disappointed that it didn't end a bit tighter but congratulations to them. They are a quality side. We need to use the run and performance as a catalyst to go on and maximise what we have."

    Jonjo: The only people surprised by this result are those who rarely watch us. Leicester are rotten to the core and we are going down.

    Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola to ITV: "It was really tough. Bristol [City] showed us how good they can be. I was impressed by some players, I didn't know them. The second half was much better.

    "Incredible fans at Bristol. We came here five years ago in the Carabao Cup and it was amazing. I remember it perfectly."

    On Phil Foden: "Dynamic, rhythm, work rate, his quality. His career was always up, up, up. This season he struggled a bit and was a bit down. But now he's back for the best bit of the season.

    "His impact has been amazing. Football pays off when you work like he does."

    On Kalvin Phillips: "When you play where Rodri plays it's not easy. It was important for us he's back.

    "We're still alive in three competitions. We'll see what happens in the future."

    Fulham

    Fulham manager Marco Silva speaking to BBC One: "It is great for us to go to the quarter-final, the next stage of the competition is really important for us, and we know our story with the FA Cup is not great and we are here to try and change it."

    On the performance: "When we are winning 2-0 we should have controlled the game in a different way. We them some dangerous moments because we turned the ball over too quickly and then we aren't in a good balance.

    "But at home we have to do much more and balance some of the moments. That is one of the things we are going to work on. I am happy for the players and I think we deserved it with two great goals."

    On missing the first goal: "I spoke with the fourth official and I didn't see the goal, I have seen it since and it was a great goal."

    On Manor Solomon: "He deserves everything, it is important for [Aleksandar] Mitrovic to be ready there to connect with the midfield and that was a perfect solution from Mitrovic and a great goal from Manor Solomon."

    FT: Bristol City 0-3 Man City

    Manchester City

    Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden speaking on ITV: "I don't think it was 3-0 game it was quite tight. The game was a big challenge, they went man-to-man at times and we struggled to win individual duels. In the end our quality shone through.

    "I feel much better with my feet. I feel 100% fit now and comfortable. [It has] Been one of the worst parts of my career but everyone goes through them and it is how you react. Discomfort in my feet and not playing as much. I love to play football and when I don't I am a bit frustrated.

    "We haven't won the FA Cup for a while so it is something we have been speaking about and we want to go far and try and win it. The last two games have been brilliant and we look like we are making a step forward now. Hopefully we keep up this form and finish the season strong."
