FA Cup Results, Sunday March 8, 2009
Arsenal 3-0 Burnley
Thanks to replays and postponements, these two teams ended up playing their 5th round tie on a weekend where the quarter finals were played. Arsenal eased their way into the next round with a very comfortable victory. Goals from Vela, Eduardo and Eboue were enough to see them through.
Everton 2-1 Middlesbrough
Everton booked their place in the semis, the best FA Cup showing in David Moyes’ 7 year tenure, with a come from behind win over Boro. The visitors took the lead on the stroke of half time through a David Wheater strike, but were pegged back in a 7 minute stretch with goals from Fellaini and super sub Louis Saha.
