The FA Cup’s fourth round fixture list is complete, pending one water-logged reschedule, after Manchester United and Cardiff City picked up wins on Wednesday.
United’s win came at a cost, as Marcus Rashford limped off with a back injury.

Watford and Tranmere Rovers face a replay next week after seeing their Tuesday match moved due to an unplayable pitch.
Spurs outlasted Middlesbrough on Tuesday to headline a host of replays.
As for Wednesday…
Manchester United v. Wolves
The visitors thought that they’d gone ahead early, but an inadvertent handball was caught by VAR to keep the score 0-0.
Red-hot Juan Mata made the difference with a delightful run to meet Anthony Martial‘s through ball, dinking the ball over John Ruddy in the 67th minute.
What a goal from one of the serially underappreciated players of his generation.

Carlisle United 3-4 Cardiff City
League Two relegation candidates Carlisle showed well against their Championship visitors, taking a lead through Nathan Thomas.
Cardiff scored the next three goals of the match, but Harry McKirdy twice pulled the hosts back within a goal at 3-2 and 4-3.
It was just too big an ask of the Cumbrians, though, as Aden Flint’s double joined goals from Josh Murphy and Danny Ward to make it 4-2 before the hour mark.
