Luton make it 20 league games unbeaten by winning 2-1 at Fleetwood.
A late goal at Lincoln. Ilias Chair has got his second for Stevenage to make it 2-2. Lincoln no longer able to sit so pretty at the top of League Two. Still plenty of time to be played, too, with eight minutes added on.
Ipswich managed to get a late goal, and equalise against Stoke, with Will Keane making it 1-1 deep into injury time. Preston and Nottingham Forest drew 0-0, as the MONKeano revolution struggles to get going at Forest.
Full-time: AFC Wimbledon 0-1 Millwall
And that’s Millwall into the quarter-final draw after Murray Wallace’s early goal. Scott Wagstaff’s beard didn’t get its run-out and AFC Wimbledon’s cup run is at its end.
Up in Scotland, it has to be mentioned that Rangers have drawn 0-0 with St Johnstone, having badly missed Alfredo Morelos, the Luis Suarez of Govan.
It’s full time at Bramall Lane, where Sheffield United have won 4-0 against Reading and will go second in the Championship.
Stevenage have got one back against Lincoln. Ilias Chair’s goal means the League One leaders can’t sit easy on this one.
Into the last minute of the FA Cup tie at the Cherry Red, and AFC are piling forward in chase of the equaliser.
Oh no, poor David Beckham. Dover are 3-1 up at Salford City. Jai Reason scored the third for the White Cliffs outfit. Do they sing “Love Me For A Reason” at the Crabble Athletic Ground?
Good piece of crestfallen, literal tweeting here. Just the facts. And the hashtag.
Millwall have twice gone close against Wimbledon, with it taking a last-gasp tackle from Andy Barcham to stop Lee Gregory scoring what would have been a certain goal. Aaron Ramsdale has just made a fine save from Ryan Leonard. A second Millwall goal is more likely than an equaliser.
Manchester City are not taking Newport County lightly in this evening’s game, judging by this team selection.
Lincoln City are now 2-0 up on Stevenage, with Bruno Andrade scoring his second of the day.
Geoff Wignall, definitely a fellow head, emails in: “Hi, I can’t imagine how I ever came to know this, but besides being a Groundhogs song Cherry Red was (like Purple Haze, Blue Cheer, Orange Sunshine and Strawberry Field) a variety of LSD during the late 60s/ early 70s.”
Blue Cheer were also a band, known in the psychedelic era as the loudest around, the story being that a passing dog was killed by the sheer force of their amps.
Norwich/Monaco juxtapositional stat here from Richard Jolly.
Norwich could have made it five, but, after Pukki was brought down in the box, but Kenny McLean has had his penalty saved. Norwich have an atrocious record with spot-kicks, and they might need them should the play-offs loom in May.
David Beckham has just seen another Dover Athletic goal in his Salford City magic kingdom. That’s 2-1 to the visitors.
Chances being created at the Cherry Red, with Millwall keeper Jordan Archer forced to make a save from Michael Folivi, and Jake Cooper firing in a shot for Millwall.
Scott Wagstaff, he of the multi-coloured beard, will take no part as the Dons have made all their substitutions; there is something a little sad about that....Or will he get a chance after all? If it goes to extra-time, an extra sub is allowed. Fifth round ties have no replays, remember.
Norwich have another! It’s 4-0, with Teemu Pukki burying Bolton with a cool lob for the fourth. And Daniel Farke’s team will clamber above Leeds. And so will Sheffield United, who are also 4-0 up in their game with Reading.
Luton, streaking clear at the top of League One, are now 2-0 up on Fleetwood. Pelly Ruddock got the goal and a 20-match unbeaten run is being closed in on.
League Two leaders Lincoln are 1-0 up on Stevenage, with Bruno Andrade looping in a header, his third goal in three games. Mansfield, in second, lost earlier to Notts County.
Sheffield United are now 4-0 up, with a deflected strike from John Fleck meaning that Reading are being further put to the sword. Macc Town’s lead lasted just moments of actual play as Colchester have equalised, with Frank Nouble scoring from the penalty spot.
The second halves are back underway, with the first goal coming north of the border with Dunfermline scoring against Inverness through Joe Thomson.
Louise Taylor spoke to Doncaster Rovers’ nobleman ahead of their tie with Crystal Palace.
The earlier FA Cup game ended up with Chris Hughton’s men squeaking through to the last eight.
Half-time scores in the Championship:
Rotherham United 2-2 Sheffield Wednesday (full-time score)
Aston Villa 0-2 West Bromwich Albion
Bolton Wanderers 0-3 Norwich City
Ipswich Town 0-1 Stoke City
Preston North End 0-0 Nottingham Forest
Sheffield United 3-0 Reading
It’s half-time at the Cherry Red, and the score remains AFC Wimbledon 0-1 Millwall.
With Notts County breathing down their necks at the bottom of League Two, Macclesfield Town are 1-0 up on Colchester, having scored on the stroke of half-time through Scott Wilson.
Meanwhile, West Brom are now 2-0 up on Aston Villa. Jay Rodriguez got that one with a long-range effort.
Both Sheffield United and Norwich City are now 3-0 up Gary Madine, the goal machine, has got another for Blades, while Emiliano Buendía has scored Norwich’s third.
In the Brum derby, Hal Robson-Kanu has scored for West Brom, who lead Aston Villa 1-0.
Altrincham are playing in rainbow colours modelled on the LGBT Pride Flag. They lead Bradford Park Avenue 1-0.
Wimbledon coming back into the game against Millwall. Toby Sibbick has had the best chance so far for them, and there has been a penalty appeal.
David Beckham has just seen his first Salford concession, with Dan McNamara, on loan from Millwall, scoring for Dover.
