Woodrow sends Luton into FA Cup fifth round with late winner at Everton
Luton Town's Cauley Woodrow celebrates scoring their side's second goal of the game

Everton 1-2 Luton Town

at Goodison Park

CAULEY WOODROW’S goal seconds after the five allocated minutes of added time had been played prevented a repeat of this low-quality FA Cup Fourth Round tie.

For most of the game it looked and felt like there would have to be a replay, as these two sides cancelled each other out, and at times cancelled themselves out.


The phrase “no one wants a replay” was rarely truer, and Luton manager Rob Edwards joked that avoiding one was a big reason for the celebrations at the end.
