Obrovské prekvapenie sa odohralo v stredajšom osemfinále FA Cupu.
Futbalisti Grimsby Town zo štvrtej najvyššej súťaže v Anglicku senzačne vyradili domáci Southampton FC, teda účastníka Premier League.
O postupe medzi najlepšiu osmičku rozhodli dve premenené penalty Gavana Holohana (2:1). Po záverečnom hvizde vypukla na ihrisku nefalšovaná radosť aktuálne 16. mužstva z League Two.
