Summary

Shoot outs, red cards and moments of madness – the FA Cup delivers.

Millwall goalkeeper Liam Roberts will get a three game ban for a horrendous challenge on Crystal Palace striker Jena-Phillippe Mateta…is that enough? Anthony Gordon saw red and will miss the cup final, is that too harsh? And Matheus Cunha snapped against Bournemouth, does incidents like that put off big clubs from signing him?

Finally, as Danny Welbeck scored the winner for Brighton, who is the most universally loved player?
