London

Ten-man Manchester United saw off Arsenal in a penalty shootout at the Emirates to book their place in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Bruno Fernandes fired United ahead after 52 minutes before Diogo Dalot was sent off on the hour mark following a wild challenge on Mikel Merino.

Gabriel equalized for Arsenal two minutes after Dalot’s dismissal, with Martin Odegaard denied by United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir from the penalty spot.

Bayindir, in just his fifth appearance for United, then pulled off a number of saves to keep his side in the tie, before he denied Kai Havertz in the shootout as United recorded a 5-3 win to send Arsenal crashing out at the first hurdle.

The two clubs have won 27 FA Cups between them and they served up a classic here that came alive following a tepid first half – where Gabriel Jesus added to Arsenal’s injury woes when he was taken off on a stretcher with a knee problem.

Spurs need extra time to beat fifth tier Tamworth

Part-timers Tamworth produced a heroic display to take Tottenham to extra-time before the Premier League club limped into the FA Cup fourth round with a 3-0 win.

The fifth-tier outfit pushed Spurs all the way at a buoyant Lambs Ground on an occasion for the whole town to be proud of - albeit with a tinge of disappointment after they missed out on a potential-lucrative replay.

Tamworth had threatened to win the game in second-half stoppage-time before Ange Postecoglou watched two of his substitutes help Spurs progress.

Dominic Solanke’s deflected effort broke the deadlock in the 101st-minute before Dejan Kulusevski clinched the hard-fought victory with a second, six minutes later.

Brennan Johnson added unjust gloss to the score with a third after 118 minutes, but it failed to sour a memorable occasion for the non-league club, who received a standing ovation after extra-time.

Holders United drawn with Leicester in FA Cup fourth round
