    What a goal!

    It's been coming from Brighton but the technique on this is beautiful.

    Pervis Estupinan picks it up on the edge of the box. It bobbles up nicely for him and he just smashes it on the half-volley into the bottom left corner.

    It was the smallest of gaps but he finds it with a powerful strike. Stoke will be gutted to concede literally seconds before half-time.

  3. Szmodics scores first-half hat-trickpublished at 15:50 Greenwich Mean Time 6 January

    Blackburn 3-2 Cambridge

    What a season Sammie Szmodics is having.

    He is the top scorer in the Championship and now he's got a first-half hat-trick in the FA Cup third round.

    He gets in front of his man at the near post and flicks home.

    Blackburn have been behind twice, but now lead.

    QPR 2-0 Bournemouth

    Bournemouth find themselves in big trouble after two QPR goals in the space of two minutes.

    Andoni Iraola did make seven changes from the side that lost to Tottenham in the Premier League on New Year’s Eve.

    The Bournemouth boss is not happy as Alex Scott, unmarked in the box, blazes over the bar.

    Five of William Osula's seven goals in English football have been in the FA Cup.

    These have been his first two goals for the Blades.

    Stoke 1-0 Brighton

    Stoke are still down to 10 players with Mehdi Léris off the pitch receiving treatment and they are trying to make a change.

    There's six minutes added on. Brighton haven't had a shot on target yet.

    Luke McNally will come on for Leris when the ball goes out of play.

    QPR have another!

    Just a couple of minutes after Sinclair Amrstrong netted their first, Lyndon Dykes puts QPR 2-0 up. He dribbles down the left wing and cuts in to his left before his shot takes a deflection to lift it over Mark Travers.

    What a first half this has turned into for the home side.

    It is a routine save for Jake Turner, the goalkeeper, and he has fumbled it back into play and William Osula has snapped it up.

    Turner has to do better.

    I don't think it's a red card. It's not a bent elbow. Yes, Langston makes contact with his face, but it's not a red card.
