Billy Sharp's winner helped Sheffield United to a 2-1 win over non-League Wrexham in the Emirates FA Cup Fourth Round
Nathan Tella’s goal in the fourth minute of injury time saw Burnley to a 2-1 victory over the Blues at Turf Moor, ending Town’s FA Cup run at the fourth-round stage. Earlier, Tella had netted his first of the evening in the opening minute for the Clarets but George Hirst had equalised two minutes later with this first goal for the Blues, who matched the Championship leaders for long spells of the two ties.
Town or Burnley will host Sheffield Wednesday or Fleetwood on Wednesday 1st March in the FA Cup fifth round, the FA has announced (KO 7.30pm).
Blues centre-half Corrie Ndaba says a reunion with former Town defender Toto Nsiala was one factor behind his deadline day loan move to Fleetwood, his previous spell at Burton having been brought to an end.
Town boss Kieran McKenna believes Gassan Ahadme’s loan return to Burton Albion is the right thing for the 22-year-old at this stage of his career, while he believes Matt Penney’s switch to Charlton is a good move for the left-back and welcomed Corrie Ndaba’s temporary switch to Fleetwood and Tete Yengi’s to Northampton.
