Stoke City 3-3 Cardiff City: Bluebirds win on penalties

Cardiff City overcame fellow Championship strugglers Stoke City on penalties in an exhilarating FA Cup tie to reach the fifth round.

Cardiff made a flying start with two goals in the opening 19 minutes as Rubin Colwill fired them ahead before Yousef Salech exploited hesitant Stoke defending to poke in.

Lewis Koumas struck with a firm low finish shortly before half-time to pull a goal back for the hosts, and the Wales forward scored again a minute after the restart to equalise.

Stoke then led through Lewis Baker's penalty, conceded by Bluebirds substitute Jasper Daland who managed to injure himself in fouling Emre Tezgel.
