Brighton caused the first upset of the third round of the FA Cup after the Championship side beat 10-man Newcastle 2-0.

It is the second season in a row that Brighton have knocked the Magpies out of the Cup.

Andrea Orlandi scored the opening goal for Brighton after 33 minutes with a well-taken strike with the outside of his left foot.

To make matters worse for Newcastle, Shola Amoebi was sent off in the second-half in a surprisingly one-sided game.

And Brighton secured a place in the fourth round when Will Hoskins tapped in a David Lopez pass three minutes from time.
