The draw for the fourth round of the FA Cup has been made after a thrilling weekend of third round action.

We saw the biggest shock in the competition’s history on Saturday as sixth-tier Macclesfield beat the holders Crystal Palace.

Mansfield Town also pulled off an impressive upset as they downed Sheffield United 4-3 at Bramall Lane.

Manchester United were knocked out by Brighton at Old Trafford, while Tottenham were downed by Aston Villa in north London and Bournemouth lost to Newcastle on penalties as Premier League sides fell.

There were some absolute batterings from big sides as well, none bigger than Manchester City beating League One side Exeter City 10-1 at the Etihad.
