Darren Ferguson denied Ashley Young and his teenage son Tyler the chance to create FA Cup history on Thursday night.
Ashley, 39, and Tyler, 18, had looked set to become the first father and son to play against each other in the 154-year history of the FA Cup when Everton hosted Peterborough at Goodison Park.
Young Sr, had admitted it would be his 'dream' to share the pitch with Tyler, but Ferguson - the son of legendary Manchester United manager Sir Alex - opted to leave the teenager on the bench as Everton ran out 2-0 winners thanks to goals from Beto and Iliman Ndiaye.
