Ashley Cole gets the congratulations for scoring his first ever goal in the FA Cup
Brighton were coasting at 2-0 with nine minutes to go thanks to goals from Anthony Knockaert and Jurgen Locadia.
But substitute Ashley Cole, with his first goal in English football since September 2012, headed a late lifeline for the Championship side.
It was Cole's first ever goal in the competition, despite winning the FA Cup SEVEN times.
But in the end it was Brighton who bagged the victory and earned their place in the quarter-finals.
