And that’s it from me. Thanks for your company and your correspondence, especially to the reader I’d better not name who wrote this around 3.15pm. “Lampard at Everton shows that owners and decision makers know nothing about soccer. Pathetic... Lampard has no clue about managing.”

I take that as a sign that none of us, to paraphrase William Golding, have much of a clue about anything. See you later for Spurs-Brighton, kicking off at 8.

That’s a big relief for Southampton. They’ll have to bounce back from a draining 124 minutes as they face two tough away games in the next week: at Spurs on Wednesday and Man United on Saturday lunchtime.

So Southampton survive a scare and Coventry go home empty-handed.

“Hate to be Mr Negative here,” says Espen Bommen, “but for all the heroics of the lower and non league teams today, and the magic of the cup, the biggest shock of the day is that one PL team beat another PL team. [Norwich winning at Wolves.] I’m afraid that shows the gap between top and bottom.” Maybe! But didn’t Kidderminster do well?

Meanwhile, here’s the match report of the day: Andy Hunter at Goodison Park to see Frank Lampard’s thumping start.

And now Coventry have missed a good chance. Will they get another? There’s one minute left...

It’s a goal from Kyle Walker-Peters! It’s an assist for Broja! It’s good management by Hasenhuttl! And it’s the third last-gasp heartbreak today for an underdog that had taken the lead. Along with the magic, there’s a fair amount of cruelty in the Cup.

Everton’s goals have just been on the Beeb. Mina’s was simple, a fine corner by Demarai Gray, poorly defended. Holgate’s was a gift, a misplaced back-header from a Brentford defender that Holgate couldn’t avoid. In between those two, Richarlison raced onto a through ball from Allan and then slowed things down again with a lovely cushioned lob. And the best of the lot was the last, from Andros Townsend, whipped in at the near post from 12 yards after some lovely interplay on the right. Along the way, Everton conceded one, a cool penalty from Ivan Toney, but the big picture on the football pages tomorrow will surely be Frank Lampard punching the air.

The game at St Mary’s reaches the 105-minute mark, and as yet there’s not much happening in extra time. The brightest spark has been Armando Broja, the Chelsea loanee who is on for Theo Walcott and looking as if he’s taken those strictures from Ralph Hasenhuttl to heart.

More from our Scottish correspondent. “Disappointingly,” says Simon McMahon, “Dundee United were unable to break down a St Johnstone side who played most of the second half with 10 men. It finished goalless in Perth. It’s not all bad news, however, as Ross County came from behind to beat Dundee 2-1 at Dens. And Livingston’s 2-1 win against Aberdeen puts United into the top six.”

Team of the day so far: Norwich, who went to Molineux and won – not many clubs do that. Team of the day from a lower division: Peterborough, who upset the odds against QPR to go into the fifth round for the first time since 1986. Manager of the day: Frank Lampard, who led Everton to a 4-1 romp against a team above them in the league, Brentford.

A fine cup run comes to an end as Palace see off Hartlepool, but the 5,000 fans who made a long, long trip to London today are still singing.

An even huger result for Norwich.

A huge result for the Posh.

A barnstorming start for Frank Lampard.

An efficient win for Stoke, stage-managed by Tyrese Campbell with two assists.

The Yorkshire derby finishes with Huddersfield fans dreaming of 1922 all over again.

Fulham go down, but at least they didn’t concede six like Leicester, or seven like Leeds.

Yes, it’s another half-hour at St Mary’s.

Well we have a late goal... and it’s Andros Townsend, scoring a cracker and placing the cherry on the top of Frank Lampard’s cake.

We need a few late goals. Come on Fulham, you’ve got three up your sleeve, haven’t you?

There’s about ten minutes to go, allowing for a bit of added time, and as it stands the only match heading for extra time is Southampton-Coventry (1-1).

A good spot from Rich Jolly, who makes a habit of this. “Richarlison,” he notes on Twitter, “has scored in his first game for Everton under Marco Silva, Duncan Ferguson, Rafa Benitez & Frank Lampard.”

“Lovely start for Frank,” says Mary Waltz. “A plea from an Everton fan suffering from football PTSD. He has a two-year contract. When the first losing streak occurs, which it will, please no Fire Frank campaigns, at least for two years.” So you’re saying that a manager’s contract should mean what it says? Radical.

Ricky-Jade Jones doubles Peterborough’s lead. The FA Cup is fulfilling one of its essential functions – giving hope and a bit of glory to clubs in the relegation zone.

A goal for Jacob Brown and a second assist for Tyrese Campbell, son of Kevin.

Cricket latest: James Rew, England’s new star, falls for an agonising but admirable 95 in the U19 World Cup final against India. The collapse instantly resumes as England subside from 184 for seven to 189 all out, but Rew and James Sales (34 not out) have given them a sliver of hope.

A blunder in the Brentford defence gives Mason Holgate a chance he can’t miss. And Frank Lampard has a two-goal cushion.

Stuart Armstrong drags Southampton level with a screamer from 25 yards. Assist by Adam Armstrong.

No details yet, but good to hear.

Mahrez gets his second and surely sees to it that not even Fulham can turn this one round. To be fair to them, though, the assist, by Kevin De Bruyne again, came from a counter-attack.

According to Sky, that is. The fan is receiving attention in the stand, and we still hope they’re OK.

Game on! Ivan Toney scores a pen against Everton for the second time this season.

A goal at the wrong end! Riyad Mahrez puts a pen away as the gods of sport refuse to play ball.

One of the players is receiving medical attention. I do hope he’s OK.

New-manager bounce!

Time for a breather, so I’m going to leave you with a factoid. “Ilkay Gundogan,” says Statman Dave on Twitter, “has been directly involved in 5 goals in the FA Cup since 2020. No Manchester City player has more: 3 goals 2 assists.”

Another email! This one is from a Norwich supporter. “Thanks for the goal Tim!” says Rod Wooden. My pleasure... let’s try it again. Your turn next, Fulham!

All round the country the fans troop out of their seats, hoping the tills in the bars are working. We have at least one goal everywhere and no draws. Top of the class so far: Coventry.

Man City 2-1 Fulham

Peterborough 1-0 QPR

Southampton 0-1 Coventry

Stoke 1-0 Wigan

Wolves 0-1 Norwich

Everton 1-0 Brentford

Palace 2-0 Hartlepool

Huddersfield 1-0 Barnsley

Right on cue! Kenny McLean gives Norwich fans one of their best moments of a tough season.

In search of some action, I turn to the cricket – the Under-19 World Cup final. England, facing India, collapsed in textbook fashion, to 61 for six, but now they’re 158 for seven, with James Rew making 81 not out.

We haven’t had a goal anywhere for a full eight minutes. Come on Norwich, it’s your turn next.

That injury has a silver lining! Yerry Mina, on as a sub for Ben Godfrey, scores with a header from a corner. The Lampard era is off and running.

So nearly a third of the way through normal time, only two of our eight games are goalless. And they’re both all-Prem affairs: Everton-Brentford and Wolves-Norwich.
