Chelsea crash out of FA Cup, Iwobi helps Fulham through
Chelsea have been knocked out of the English FA Cup after Brighton came from behind to beat them 2-1 in a fourth round clash on Saturday night.
The Blues had been gifted a lead in the fifth minute of the game when an own goal by Bart Verbruggen got the hosts trailing.
But they soon recovered and pushed back, with a 12th-minute equaliser by Georginio Rutter and a 57th-minute goal by Kaoru Mitoma sending them to the fifth round.
Earlier in the day, Super Eagles forward Alex Iwobi featured for Fulham as they advanced with a 2-1 victory over Wigan Athletic.
