REACTING TO A CRAZY FA CUP 5th ROUND WEEKEND | MATETA INJURY | CUNHA RED CARD | OSMAJIC v BURNLEY

Crystal Palace progressed to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup with a comfortable win over 10-man Millwall at Selhurst Park.
The turning point of the match came in the eighth minute when Millwall goalkeeper Liam Roberts was sent off after he came charging out of his goal and kicked Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta in the head as attempted to clear the ball.
Play was initially allowed to carry on by referee Michael Oliver, but after he was sent to the pitch-side monitor by the video assistant referee (VAR), he showed the red card to Roberts.

Milutin Osmajic was on the scoresheet as two-time winners Preston claimed bragging rights in Lancashire by thumping local rivals Burnley in the FA Cup fifth round.
Build-up to the contest was overshadowed by Preston’s Osmajic being accused of racially abusing Burnley midfielder Hannibal Mejbri during the meeting of the sides here two weeks ago – an allegation which the Montenegro forward denies.
Osmajic started the game but Hannibal was left out of the squad and the Clarets players refused to acknowledge the Preston player in the pre-match handshake.

Bournemouth booked a place in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup for only the third time in their history with a penalty shootout victory over Wolves, who had goalscorer Matheus Cunha sent off.
Luis Sinisterra was the Cherries’ hero at Vitality Stadium after the fifth-round tie had ended 1-1 after extra time, converting the winning kick after Boubacar Traore, Matt Doherty and Dean Huijsen had missed.
Bournemouth striker Evanilson, making his first start since suffering a broken foot at Everton in early January, had opened the scoring on the half-hour mark after Wolves goalkeeper Sam Johnstone parried Antoine Semenyo’s initial effort.
The hosts thought they had doubled their advantage when Milos Kerkez bundled home at the far post five minutes later, but the goal was disallowed for offside following an eight-minute check by the video assistant referee (VAR).
