San Dimas High School 1 v 2 Aardvark Abacus

FA Cup holders Claymore are through to our quarter-finals. Their game against Mega Bucks was level at 1-1 as we moved into injury time, Charlie Adam cancelling out Ross Barkley's strike, but then cleans from two of Clive's long-serving defenders Bacary Sagna and Gael Clichy took him through. The 2013 runners-up are out though. The game between the CFJs and Fred was drifting towards a replay when Wilfried Bony powered in a last minute header and Cesar Azpilicueta finished things off for Fred with a clean.

There was another surprise as Nil Satis snapped out of their recent poor form to knock out the Muppets. Nikica Jelavic opened his account for the season with a brace, Nathaniel Clyne, Oscar and Seamus Coleman got the others that put Paul 5-0 up. Ryan replied with a Frazier Campbell goal and two cleans to cut the deficit but it was too little, too late. Trusted returned to winning ways to put out the Artisans. Ben's team were ahead on 34 minutes through Adam Johnson but Beef left it late with cleans from Phil Bardsley and Martin Kelly to turn things round.

Final Fantasy are finding their feet after a rocky patch and it was cleans from Damien Delaney and Mark Schwartzer beat FCK2 after Darren Bent had opened the scoring for Kevin. YTFIB like the occasional cup run and Julian's team are through to the last eight after edging out Cheese Makers courtesy of a Paul McShane clean.

The Dead Parrots got the better in the battle of the bottom two to see off Athletico Phoenix. Wayne Routledge executed an excellent lob after a great through ball to open the scoring and Rickie Lambert doubled the lead on 28 minutes. Santi Cazorla had space to pull one back for Brian three minutes later but Robert Snodgrass restored the advantage right on half-time. A clean from Per Mertersacker ended up as a consolation. In the last game on Match of the Day Aardvark Abacus and San Dimas played out a dismal goalless draw.

And in the replay Danny Welbeck's clever steered finish looked like seeing my team into the last eight but cleans from Nacho Monreal and Danny Rose see the Aardvarks through.
