Scott Wagstaff hits a brace as League One side fend off West Ham f ightback
Scott Wagstaff hits a brace as League One side fend off West Ham fightback. For the majority of this enthralling FA Cup encounter, you got the sense that West Ham’s players thought they had turned up at Wimbledon for a spot of lawn tennis. There was no nastiness from the Premier League visitors, no grit, no determination to win this fourth-round tie or avoid losing to a side sitting bottom of League One. Only in the second half, once they were 3-0 down, once the Wimbledon supporters were gleefully singing about playing them every week, did they finally wake up. AFC Wimbledon (4-2-3-1): Ramsdale, Watson, Thomas, McDonald, Oshilaja, Nightingale, Wordsworth, Connolly, Wagstaff, Pinnock, Appiah; Subs: Jervis, Garratt, Trotter, Soares, Sibbick, McDonnell, Pigott Scorers: Appiah 34, Wagstaff 41, 46, Sibbick 88 West Ham (4-3-3): Adrian, Antonio, Diop, Ogbonna, Masuaku, Diangana, Noble, Obiang, Snodgrass, Hernandez, Carroll; Subs: Fabianski, Felipe Anderson, Fredericks, Lucas Perez, Holland, Rice, Coventry Scorers: Perez 57, Anderson 71 Referee: Anthony Taylor Manager Manuel Pellegrini made three changes at half time and two of them – Lucas Perez and £40million Felipe Anderson – got goals back. The third did not follow. Instead, it was Wimbledon who rounded off an excitable evening, scoring in the dying moments to cap a historic victory for the club only formed in 2002. It is approaching 40 years since West Ham last lifted a trophy. That was the FA Cup in May 1980, when they defeated Arsenal 1-0 at Wembley. The wait will go on. When asked about Wimbledon’s Crazy Gang history before this tie, Pellegrini gave a puzzled look – the type you might see on a quiz show when the contestant doesn’t have the foggiest. If a fan of Hollywood films, Pellegrini might at least have recognised one of its old members in the crowd. Vinnie Jones, football’s former hard man and 1988 FA Cup winner, watched on. Wimbledon boss Wally Downes had called on his players to channel that Crazy Gang spirit here. They listened, winning every 50-50 as West Ham's stars seemed reluctant to make the effort. Andy Carroll started but in the warm up, from 20 yards out and with no goalkeeper in goal, he hoofed one shot out of the stadium. His feet never were never his strength anyway. The 6ft 4in striker got his head to two corners in the opening 15 minutes but could direct neither of them on target. Carroll then set up Javier Hernandez with a header but he too fired wide. Wimbledon then scored the opener and, to tell the truth, it was fully deserved. Anthony Wordsworth slipped the ball through to Kwesi Appiah, who took a touch and beat Adrian. Suddenly, an FA Cup upset was on the cards, largely because West Ham looked like they could not be bothered. It got worse before half time. Pedro Obiang gave the ball away on the halfway line and suddenly Scott Wagstaff was through. He sprinted for goal with only Adrian to beat and scored for 2-0. Pellegrini walked down the tunnel with a face like thunder. His side had not managed a single shot on target and he brought on £40m Anderson, Perez and Ryan Fredericks. Then, just 38 seconds into the second half, it was 3-0. Appiah crossed and Wagstaff – a free transfer from Gillingham in the summer – poked home from 12 yards. Wagstaff had scored two goals in 27 games before West Ham came to town. Now, he had two in 46 minutes. Co-owner David Sullivan, sat in front of the press box, shook his head. A special mention has to go to Dylan Connolly, too. The 23-year-old Irishman – so unknown he does not have a Wikipedia page – had been outstanding on his first start for the Dons. Finally, West Ham started to pile on the pressure and it became 3-1 before the hour mark. A melee in the box gave Perez a chance to shoot and he buried the ball beyond Aaron Ramsdale. Then, it was 3-2. A free-kick from 25 yards was inviting to Anderson

Top Event - Luton 2-0 Barnet: Danny Hylton and James Collins strike to seal win and keep League Two title dream alive 'Mad Dog' Martin Allen may have brought dogged determination to Barnet's fight for survival, but they will need more to remain a Football League breed. Luton dominated the match, with strikers Danny Hylton and James Collins earning a deserved win that puts them back on top of League Two.

Bradford City 0 Plymouth 1: Bantams pay penalty for missed spot-kick
Lone striker Jake Jervis struck in the 35th minute and it was enough to give the Pilgrims their second away win of the season.Bradford welcomed back from Republic of Ireland duty goalkeeper Colin Doyle, released from Martin O'Neill's squad for their World Cup qualifying play-off in Denmark.Right-back McMahon also returned from a one-game ban along with midfield player Jake Reeves, after groin trouble.Plymouth, on the back of a five-match unbeaten run in all competitions, were without suspended midfield play-maker Graham Carey, and, with all three senior goalkeepers on the injured list, Remi Matthews, on loan from Norwich, again stepped in.Winger Lionel Ainsworth made his first league start since the end of September following hamstring problems and the former Huddersfield player was joined by ex-Doncaster full-back Aaron Taylor-Sinclair and Leeds central midfield man Toumani Diagouraga.Bradford dominated possession and looked set to go ahead midway through the first half but Charlie Wyke's goalbound header from Nicky Law's cross struck Sonny Bradley in the face before the City striker fired narrowly wide from the follow-up opportunity.However, the Pilgrims took a shock 35th-minute lead when David Fox fed the ball down the right channel and Ainsworth's low cross was turned in by Jervis despite a challenge from Nat Knight-Percival.Bradford responded and Matthews did well to twice tip over efforts from Paul Taylor before the break.City full-back Tom Field was sacrificed for left-winger Tyrell Robinson at the start of the second half and following one raid down that flank, McMahon fluffed a shooting opportunity in the clear.Robinson then teed up Reeves to hit a swerving shot which struck the bar from the edge of the area but the equaliser would not come as the game entered its final half-hour.Joel Grant headed over for the Pilgrims before Alex Gilliead replaced Reeves to give City more width.City got their spot-kick when Romain Vincelot was impeded at the far post heading a cross from Nicky Law but Matthews beat away McMahon's penalty going to his right to concede a corner.Grant fired narrowly wide as the visitors threatened on the break and City ran out of time despite goalkeeper Doyle venturing forward in stoppage time.
