Andy Holt was also on target as League Two Northampton Town knocked out Championship club Reading in another major upset.

The game at the Madejski Stadium finished 3-3 after extra time with the Cobblers triumphing 4-2 after extra time.

Richie Wellens also found the net for Leicester won won 2-1 at Leeds in an all Championship club clash.
