League Two Stevenage, sponsored by Burger King, weren’t exactly beaten by a Whopper. Instead, it was a header from the smallest player on the pitch, Wayne Routledge.
Perhaps he held a decade-long grudge and got his revenge at last, given this match marked the 10-year anniversary of Stevenage defeating Premier League Newcastle.
Routledge was on the losing side that day, but the 5ft 7in forward’s finish here ensured Championship high-flyers Swansea would not exit the competition to Tier Four opposition.

Viktor Gyokeres — the Swedish international on loan from Brighton — later doubled their lead, and Stevenage substitute Luke Norris saw his penalty saved in the 80th minute.
