United dominated the match, defeating Huddersfield Town 2-0 in the fifth round of the FA Cup thanks to a brace from Lukaku. Premier League sides Southampton and Brighton & Hove Albion also booked their places in the quarter-finals of the competition, while Swansea City have a replay against Championship side Sheffield Wednesday to look forward to. Here's a look at all Saturday's results and the remaining ties.

Fifth Round FA Cup results

Sheffield Wednesday 0-0 Swansea City
Brighton & Hove Albion 3-1 Coventry City
West Bromwich Albion 1-2 Southampton
Huddersfield Town 0-2 Manchester United
Wigan Athletic 0-0 Manchester City
Rochdale 1-2 Tottenham Hotspur

Lukaku opened the scoring after just three minutes with an assist from Juan Mata thatput him through on goal. Lukaku has scored 10 goals in his last 10 appearances in the FA Cup. The visitors scored again just before half-time, but Mata saw his effort disallowed by the Video Assistant Referee (VAR). Lukaku added a second goal 10 minutes into the second half. Alexis Sanchez passed to Lukaku, and he once again finished clinically to United's side's lead. Alexis Sanchez is earning his pay as a brilliant central striker. Sanchez is at his best through the middle. United comfortably kept their lead and their FA Cup hopes are still alive. Notably the VAR's harsh decision is the game's biggest talking point. Brighton easily defeated League Two side Coventry at the Amex Stadium to win a 3-1 victory. New signing Jurgen Locadia enjoyed his debut, opening the scoring after 15 minutes. Jürgen Locadia has now scored on his first appearance for Brighton in any competition. It was his first shot on target for them. Connor Goldson doubled Brighton's lead on 34 minutes; the defender headed home Markus Suttner's corner, as Connor Goldson scored his first competitive goal for Brighton since April 2016 versus QPR. Leonardo Ulloa headed home Brighton's winning third in the second. Ulloa scored his first goal for Brighton since May 2014 against Nottingham Forest. Jonson Clarke-Harris scored for Coventry, but it was just a consolation for the visitors as Brighton make the last eight in the FA Cup for the first time since 1986. Southampton enjoyed a victory and putting misery on Premier League bottom side West Bromwich Albion. Albion's preparations for the game had been disrupted after an incident during a training trip to Barcelona. An investigation into four West Brom players who allegedly stole a taxi in Barcelona is taking place. Things got even worse for the Baggies at the Hawthorns, as goals from Wesley Hoedt and Dusan Tadic put the visitors into a 2-0 lead.

Salomon Rondon then volleyed home before Ahmed Hegazi hit the bar late on, too little to late for Alan Pardew's side. It's agony for West Brom as disgrace leading to their exit from the FA Cup has terribly damaged a top football club. Pardew and all 4 players should be fired for the shame they've brought to their team. The Baggies are bottom of the Premier League table by five points and also have the unwanted fallout from their trip to Barcelona to deal with.
