Angelo Ogbonna Obinze of West Ham United scores the winning goal during the The Emirates FA Cup Fourth Round Replay match between West Ham United and Liverpool at Boleyn Ground

West Ham are through to the last 16 of the Emirates FA Cup after a dramatic, late win over Liverpool. The Hammers won 2-1 with a goal in stoppage time of extra-time in their fourth-round replay. Angelo Ogbonna headed home the winner in the 121st minute, after the game had finished 1-1 in regular time. Michail Antonio guided in Enner Valencia's cross at the far post for the opener just before the break. The lead didn't last long however, as just minutes into the second half Philippe Coutinho levelled matters, sneaking a free-kick under the wall and past Randolph. The win is West Ham's third over Liverpool this season, after they did the double over the Reds in the league, and their reward is a tie against Blackburn in the next round.
