WHAT HAPPENED<br />

ELSEWHERE<br />

THE STATE OF PLAY…<br />

Arsenal and <strong>Tottenham</strong> had<br />

already booked their place<br />

in the semi-finals after the<br />

Gunners defeated Ipswich 4-2<br />

in an entertaining game, whilst<br />

Spurs beat Manchester City<br />

by the same scoreline. In the<br />

Premier League on the previous<br />

Saturday, Norwich continued to<br />

breathe life into a title challenge.<br />

It seemed the Canaries had<br />

Manchester <strong>United</strong> but four<br />

minutes later Mark Hughes<br />

equalised to earn a point for the<br />

home side.<br />

THE GAMES…<br />

During this week of fixtures,<br />

there was a mix of FA Cup and<br />

Premier League matches. In the<br />

FA Cup, Wednesday advanced to<br />

the semis after defeating second<br />

tier Derby County 1-0 in their<br />
