FA CUP ROUND-UP

BARNSLEY boss Valerien Ismael will go toe-to-toe with Frank Lampard and Chelsea after the Championship side knocked out high-flying NORWICH. The Yorkshiremen were good value for their win, with Norwich goalkeeper Tim Krul at his best to keep them at bay in the first half with a string of fine saves. The Dutchman was finally beaten in the 56th minute when man of the match Callum Styles pounced on a loose ball in the area before burying a low finish into the bottom corner. ‘I’m delighted he’s back from a bit of a slip (in form) the last few weeks,’ Ismael said of his midfielder. ‘He’s a young player with a big talent, but he has to stay at that level. This is the big thing.’ Steve Cooper hailed the influence of new signing Conor Hourihane after SWANSEA thrashed NOTTINGHAM FOREST 5-1. Hourihane joined Swansea on loan from Aston Villa last Wednesday, and only had a couple of training sessions with his new team-mates before starting on Saturday. But he made an instant impact as Swansea scored more than two in a game for the first time this season. ‘He was excellent, he’s been so impressive since he walked through the door,’ Swansea boss Cooper said. ‘He’s a real focused, professional individual. He wants to buy into what we’re trying to do.’ Dealing with MILLWALL’s physicality was the key to success according to BRISTOL CITY boss Dean Holden after his side’s 3-0 win at the Den, setting up a fifth-round tie against Sheffield United of the top flight. A Famara Diedhiou penalty gave City the lead, Nahki Wells’ deflected free-kick made it 2-0 and the Bermudan forward then slipped in Antoine Semenyo for the third. ‘To win here by three goals, keep a clean sheet and get into the next round of the Cup is hugely satisfying,’ said Holden.
