Ben Davies and Son Heung-min celebrate on The National Sport front page on Monday, January 9, after both scored to seal Tottenham Hotspur's place in the FA Cup fourth round.
Spurs advanced thanks to a 2-0 win over Aston Villa, while earlier in the day, Chelsea, Middlesbrough and Fulham also progressed.
Greg Lea was at White Hart Lane to witness Tottenham's victory, and offers his thoughts on the match here.
The only Premier League team not to win on Sunday was Liverpool, who were held to a goalless draw at Anfield by League Two side Plymouth Argyle.
Richard Jolly was at Anfield on an historic day for Liverpool, but ultimately the day belonged to Plymouth.

Other simple ideas for sushi rice dishes
Cheat’s nigiri
This is easier to make than sushi rolls. With damp hands, form the cooled rice into small tablet shapes. Place slices of fresh, raw salmon, mackerel or trout (or smoked salmon) lightly touched with wasabi, then press, wasabi side-down, onto the rice. Serve with soy sauce and pickled ginger.
Easy omurice
This fusion dish combines Asian fried rice with a western omelette. To make, fry cooked and cooled sushi rice with chopped vegetables such as carrot and onion and lashings of sweet-tangy ketchup, then wrap in a soft egg omelette.
Deconstructed sushi salad platter
This makes a great, fuss-free sharing meal. Arrange sushi rice on a platter or board, then fill the space with all your favourite sushi ingredients (edamame beans, cooked prawns or tuna, tempura veggies, pickled ginger and chilli tofu), with a dressing or dipping sauce on the side.
