FA Cup 2018: 3rd-Round Results, Scores, Updated Schedule After Sunday's Fixtures

Arsenal were dumped out of the FA Cup on Sunday with a 4-2 defeat at Nottingham Forest in the third round, while Tottenham Hotspur were the only one of three Premier League teams in action on the day who booked their place in the next stage.

Forest defender Eric Lichaj scored either side of Per Mertesacker's equaliser before a Ben Brereton penalty. Danny Welbeck reduced the deficit to one goal again, but Kieran Dowell's late spot-kick sealed Arsenal's demise at the City Ground.

Tottenham demolished AFC Wimbledon 3-0 to advance, with Harry Kane scoring twice before Jan Vertonghen sealed their win, while West Ham United were forced to a replay following their stalemate at Shrewsbury Town of League One.

Elsewhere, 10-man Leeds United were knocked out following a 2-1 loss at League Two outfit Newport County, who came back from a goal down to progress.

Read on for a recap of Sunday's results and all the highlights from the latest round of FA Cup fixtures.

Recap

The 10 men of Nottingham Forest were unafraid of ousting top-flight Arsenal from the FA Cup, and they got off to a grand start thanks to Lichaj's brace in the first half.

Football on BT Sport provided a look at the United States international's excellent second goal after Mertesacker had poked home from a set-piece scramble to equalise after 23 minutes.

The rust was evident for some of Arsenal's players, however, as Rob Holding committed a foul in the box for Brereton to convert and Mathieu Debuchy later was called up for a foul in the box that Dowell tucked away.

Welbeck bundled home in the 79th minute to give Arsenal hope at 3-2 down, but Forest were deserving of the win and a place in the fourth round as BT Sport presenter Jake Humphrey questioned any excuse of a weakened Gunners team. Joe Worrall was sent off for the hosts, but his dismissal came too late to have any impact on the result.

In contrast, north London rivals Tottenham were dominant in a 3-0 hammering of Wimbledon at Wembley Stadium, although a scoreless first half might have given manager Mauricio Pochettino cause for concern.

Those fears were eased when Moussa Sissoko crossed in for Kane to tap home his first before Kyle Walker-Peters' attempted shot bobbled nicely into the path of the striker, who converted his second in the space of three minutes.

Spurs were flying after Kane's double strike, but the home fans were on their feet when Vertonghen's late screamer—his first in more than four years, per OptaJoe—took a slight deflection and went in.

Leeds might have expected to build on Gaetano Berardi's opening strike at Newport and go on to clinch their fourth-round spot in some comfort, but the Welsh hosts proved more stubborn than their Championship guests anticipated.

An own goal from Conor Shaughnessy got Newport on the board, and BBC Sport captured the moment Shawn McCoulsky headed in an 89th-minute winner to seal a dramatic upset. 

Samuel Saiz was only on for 15 minutes before he was sent off in injury time following accusations he spat at Newport player Robbie Willmott.

Leeds manager Thomas Christiansen said after the match that he wasn't certain on the incident but didn't believe the allegations, per the Daily Star's Rhys Turrell: "I don't know, I didn't see it. I don't know, when I know I will come back. If it's right, why he got the red card, it's a problem. But I believe that he didn't do it."

West Ham became one of several Premier League teams forced to a third-round replay after drawing 0-0 at Shrewsbury in what was their third match in the space of a week.

Shrewsbury appeared to sense that frailty among the Hammers and clinched a deserved draw against David Moyes' side, although it's debatable as to whether they'll be able to offer the same fight at London Stadium.
