Huge surprise in the 3rd round of the English Cup, with the incredible Cambridge to detonate a megaton bomb after blocking the “rich” Newcastle, which they defeated 1-0 at “St. James Park”.
The “golden” goal for the team playing in League One, Ironside succeeded in 56 ‘. The newly acquired back Tripier made his debut for the “buzzards”, however it was not enough, since the Howie players wasted several opportunities.

The “wasps” reduced to 27 ‘with an excellent finish by Joao Pedro, however the Rogers players found two more goals in the second half (54’ Barnes, 85 ‘Albrighton) and sealed the ticket for the next phase.
Thereafter, Brentford passed like a whirlwind (1-4) from the headquarters of Port Vale with a big protagonist Embeumo, who scored a hat-trick (66 ‘, 76’, 87 ‘penalty) and cleared for his team.
Big surprise from Kinderminster too, which plays in the 6th division of English football, but was not intimidated and overcame the obstacle of Reading (Championship team), which it defeated 2-1 at home.
The guests took the lead in the 45th minute with Puskas, but the Harriers overturned it in the second half (69 ‘Austin, 82’ Morgan-Smith).
