League one clubs, Bradford City and Middleborough have eliminated premier league table toppers, Chelsea and Man City from the FA cup.
Bradford won Chelsea 4-2 at Stamford Bridge while Middlesbrough knock out Premier League champions Manchester City 2-0 at Etihad Stadium.
Chelsea were dumped out of the FA Cup by Bradford in sensational style at Stamford Bridge with the League One side coming back from 2-0 down to stun the Premier League leaders 4-2.
Fernando over-cooked a backpass to Willy Caballero, which the goalkeeper just manages to clear only for the midfielder to hit his own clearance straight into Patrick Bamford.
As City pushed for a late equaliser, Middlesbrough, who were successful on the counter all game, put the game to bed as Kike slotted home in stoppage time.
