The matches that ended in a draw will have a replay, as is the case in the FA Cup. The dates will be announced during the draw for Round 4.
Liverpool 2-2 Wolves
One of the biggest talking points from the game was the winning goal for Wolves that was chalked off. VAR decided to go with the original decision since they didn’t have the angle to determine whether there was an offside in the build-up play. And upon review, it seems to have been the right call.
Coventry 3-4 Wrexham
Non-league side Wrexham were able to stun Coventry in the FA Cup, after a seven-goal thriller. Ryan Reynolds’ team now has a place in the fourth round of the tournament after a miraculous display right from the beginning, which saw them survive a late scare to advance.
Sheffield Wednesday 2-1 Newcastle United
Despite having a sensational Premier League run this season, Newcastle’s hopes for FA Cup glory have been ended by Sheffield Wednesday of the third tier. A brace from Josh Windass was enough to get them over the line against the Magpies, who will be disappointed that they weren’t able to make it further into the tournament.
