I've got a superb link up through ESPN3 for the Burnley v. Leeds match this afternoon. Wahay!
It's a much changed Leeds side tonight. Apparently Thomas Christensen rattled the teacups in the dressing room after our tame loss at Millwall at the weekend.
First goal of the evening - West Ham have taken the lead against Bolton. Ogbonna with the finish.
Palace can't score to save their lives in the Premiership but they're 1-0 up tonight against Huddersfield. Sakho with the gaol for them.
The Canaries are 0-1 up early doors from a penalty away to Brentford.
Not happy with the way we're playing so far. We're coughing the ball up far too easily in midfield.
I'm back after a meeting with a student. We're into the second half. It's still 0-0 at Turf Moor. At this point, we may be looking at extra and perhaps penalties.
Sakho has scored a second goal for West Ham - they're 2-0 up against Bolton.
Bristol City are 1-0 up over the Potters now - Diedhiou with the goal there.
Phil Bardsley picks up a yellow card there for a nasty one on Ayling.
The Canaries are now 0-2 up at Brentford.
MOT!
Another industrial challenge there from Hendrick. The referee is going to have his work cut out for him in this final period.
Middlesbrough have a penalty, and Aston Villa’s Tommy Elphick has been sent off!
Boro have taken the lead from that penalty by Bamford and now lead 0-1 at Villa Park.
Thomas Christensen is looking rather dapper tonight, in a sweater number. I'm hoping that he's got some ideas for changes as we approach the hour mark.
Kemar Roofe has gone into the book.
Hadi Sakho is about to come on for Borthwick-Jackson in a moment. Attacking move from Tommy.
Phew - Gudmondsson just wide of the mark for Burnley.
Bristol City are now 2-0 up over Stoke - could be the first Premiership scalp of the evening.
Sam Vokes has gone down in a heap after that clash with the keeper. Looks like he landed on his shoulder.
We've got just a wee bit of momentum now - come on, you Whites - let's steal this one.
Leicester have taken the lead over Liverpool through Okazaki. The Reds are in trouble now.
Bamford has added a second goal for Boro at Villa Park. Game over.
Our old boy Chris Wood is now warming up. Bloody hell.
Oh - Ashley Barnes might have sealed it there. Headed chance in the box but put it over.
Swansea are 0-1 up at Reading now through Mawson.
Just over twenty minutes left now.
Sacko is causing all sorts of trouble down the right flank. Our old boy Charlie Taylor is having real problem handling him.
Nice free kick opportunity for us now - and a booking for Gudmondsson.
Oh - from the free kick Burnley raced back up the pitch and that cross shot from Bardsley nearly crept in the far post. Lonergan was really exposed there.
Robbie Brady coming on for Scott Arfield now for Burnley.
Sam Vokes also coming off - Chris Wood coming on. Bugger.
Now Burnley have a free kick chance. Keep it tight, lads.
Comes to nothing - phew....
Brady flashes one well over the bar.
I'm really liking the looks of this new Irish kid Shaughnessy.
I'd have Vieira off about now - he looks gassed.
Fifteen minutes and change left now.
We're really under the cosh now.
Oh - great save by Lonergan from Westwood there.
Slimani has added a second against Liverpool and it appears that the Reds are going out at the 3rd Round stage.
YESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
Hadi Sacko scores from a break!!!!
0-1 Whites!
Now can we gut out the last ten minutes. Come on!
Wonderful ball from Pablo to open that chance up for Sacko.
Great cut out by Shaughnessy as Charlie Taylor was threatening.
The referee bails out Lonergan from the corner. Sean Dyche not happy about it.
Deli Alli has put Spurs 1-0 up over Barnsley.
Grot has done nowt tonight - I'd have him off.
It's all Route 1 stuff to Wood for Burnley now.
A long ball out to Sacko produces another great run and a free kick now. Long with a yellow. It's also ticks valuable seconds off the clock.
Grot is off now, as the doctor ordered, and Lassorga is coming on.
This is Pablo territory for sure. Oh - just over the top.
Inside the last five minutes now...hang on!
Oh - great save by Lonergan again from Gudmundson!
Of course it's Chris Wood to take.....
And scores. 1-1.
Six minutes of stoppage time now.
A little over five minutes of stoppage time left now. We have a free kick chance to pump the ball up to the big men.
Oh my word! We have a penalty!!!!!!
Pablo to take.....
YESSSS!!!!!
1-2!!!!!
90 seconds left - and we've given away a free kick now.
This should be the last chance for Burnley. Come on, Andy!
Bugger!!!!
Desmond arrives at Turf Moor - a sumptuous strike from Brady.
Burnley are hunting down a winner now.
That's full time. We'll go to extra time and I'm off home.
I'm home now and it's penalties now....
Lassorga up first for us....
Lovely - in the corner. 0-1 Whites!
Chris Wood steps up to take his second pen of the night.
Roofs it. 1-1
We're seeing the new penalty system now in action. Another Burnley one - Ashley Barnes.
2-1
Pablo steps up now for his second pen....
Just sneaks it in. 2-2
Another Leeds one now...
Klitsch... in!
2-3!
Robbie Brady now...
Off the post and in. 3-3
Another Burnley one now - Tarkovsky.
Great save, Andy!
Alioski now - lovely pen!
3-4!
Stu Dallas to win it!
