A stoppage-time goal gave Fulham a 2-1 win against Everton in the English FA Cup, advancing to play West Ham in the next round. Carlos Bocanegra had a superb performance for the home team.
Kasey Keller, meanwhile, was on the wrong end of one of the greatest comebacks in FA Cup history. Manchester City, missing the services of Claudio Reyna due to a groin injury, rallied with 10 men from a 3-0 deficit to win, 4-3 at White Hart Lane.
