MIDDLESBROUGH, England (Reuters) -Matty Cash's last-gasp goal sent Aston Villa into the FA Cup fourth round for the first time in eight years with a 1-0 victory over Middlesbrough on Saturday.
The sides appeared destined for a replay before Cash broke the deadlock in the 87th minute with his fourth goal of the season, a powerful shot from just outside the 18-yard box that deflected in off Middlesbrough's Emmanuel Latte Lath.
