FA Cup quarter final draw recap: Vincent Kompany's Burnley take on Man City, Grimsby play Premier League opposition

Man Utd's quest for more silverware

Fresh from winning the Carabao Cup on Sunday - their first trophy in four years - Erik ten Hag's men have been drawn against Fulham.

While it's not an easy tie, with Marco Silva's side riding high in the Premier League, it is one United will feel they can win.

The Red Devils are also in the Europa League last-16, where they take on Real Betis, while they have an outside chance of winning the Premier League.

Kompany's City record

Vincent Kompany won four Premier League titles, two FA Cups and four League Cups during an 11-year spell at the Etihad Stadium. The Belgian donned City's colours some 338 times, scoring 20 goals.

He returns to his old stomping ground as Burnley manager, with the Clarets riding high at the top of the Championship.

Some massive stories from that draw

Of course, the major news is that Vincent Kompany's Burnley side will travel to the Etihad to take on City, the club where the Belgian made his name.

Meanwhile it's a home tie for United, who are seeking to claim the second trophy of the season.

Grimsby Town, who are the story of the round, have been rewarded with a trip to Premier League Brighton.

Meanwhile it's an all Championship encounter as Sheffield United take on Blackburn.

The ties will be played on 17-19 March.

Here we go...

The draw is imminent at Bramall Lane. Alan Shearer is the man pulling the names from the pot.

The Championship high-flyers netted a last minute goal though Connor Roberts to beat Fleetwood and make it to the last eight. Meanwhile United are leading West Ham 2-1, with the game in it's dying embers.

Brighton keep silverware hopes alive

Brighton's hopes of securing a first major trophy remain alive as Evan Ferguson scored the only goal of the game to edge past Championship side Stoke City.

It is Brighton's third quarter-final appearance in the past six years, having previously only been in the last-eight twice in their entire history.

Fulham reached the FA Cup quarter-final for the first time since 2010, defeating Leeds United at Craven Cottage.
