Oldham wrote a little piece of FA Cup history when beating hot favourites Everton.

David Moyes' team were backed as low as [1.22] to win in 90 minutes Goodison Park with the League One outfit taken at prices as high as [21.0].

But Everton, fielding reserve keeper Stefan Wessels, were undone by a 25-yard screamer from Oldham's Gary McDonald and could not find a reply of their own.

Cambridge were on the verge of pulling off the first upset of the FA Cup third round at Wolves today before having their hearts broken by the Championship side.

Wolves then hit a second in the 88th minute to force their way into the fourth round. Cambridge to lead at half-time and Wolves to win at full-time was backed at [46.0].

Havant And Waterlooville will ensure plenty of 'romance of the Cup' headlines after holding League One leaders Swansea. The Blue Square League South outfit were backed at [24.0] to win - they couldn't oblige there but they did get the draw, available at [9.0]. Swansea went off at [1.19] to win.
