Fulham thumped Spurs, Edin Dzeko rescued Manchester City at Notts County and ten-man Arsenal overcame Huddersfield.

Elsewhere Victor Obinna's hat-trick helped West Ham see off Nottingham Forest in a five-goal thriller at Upton Park and Stoke left it late to beat Premier League rivals Wolves 1-0 at Molineux.

Fulham booked a fifth round meeting with the winner of the Bolton v Wigan replay with a 4-0 win over ten-man Tottenham after a devastating first half display.

The home side made the breakthrough on 12 minutes when Danny Murphy scored from the penalty spot after Alan Hutton brought down Clint Dempsey.

Things got worse for Spurs three minutes later when Michael Dawson was sent off for pulling back Moussa Dembele inside the box for a penalty, and Murphy again scored from the spot against his old club.

Brede Hangeland added a third on 23 minutes when he ghosted in at the far post to score from close-range.

Demebele put the game beyond Spurs right on the stroke of half time when he smashed home a superb shot from the edge of the box.

League One side Notts County earned a 1-1 draw with Manchester City at Meadow Lane, with Edin Dzeko's first goal for City denying the Magpies a famous win.

After a goalless first half, Neal Bishop had the home fans dreaming of a shock success when he headed home on the hour mark.

However, Dzeko came to City's rescue when he converted Micah Richards' cross ten minutes from time for his first goal in English football.

Cesc Fabregas' late penalty secured ten-man Arsenal a hard-fought 2-1 win over battling Huddersfield at Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal went in front on 22 minutes when Nicklas Bendtner's deflected shot off Terriers skipper Peter Clarke beat Ian Bennett.

The home side were reduced to ten men just before the break when Sebastien Squillaci was shown a straight red card for blocking the impressive Jack Hunt's surging run as he tried to go clear on goal.

Huddersfield made their numerical advantage count when Alan Lee headed home from a corner on 66 minutes.

Fabregas came off the bench to grab the winner from the penalty spot four minutes from time after Jamie McCombe was adjudged to have pushed Bendtner over inside the box.

West Ham maintained their good run of form in the cups with a thrilling 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest, thanks to Victor Obinna's treble.

Obinna gave West Ham the perfect start with the opener after just four minutes, but Forest turned the game on its head with two goals from Dele Adebola (18) and David McGoldrick (40).

The lead proved short-lived as Obinna levelled matters two minutes later and the Nigerian completed his hat-trick from the penalty spot seven minutes into the second half.

Robert Huth's late goal earned Stoke a first FA Cup victory over Wolves after a 1-0 win at Molineux.

Huth popped up with the only goal of the game nine minutes from time when he headed home Matthew Etherington's free-kick.

Wolves missed the chance to force a replay when Nenad Milijas saw his last-gasp penalty saved by Stoke keeper Thomas Sorensen.
