FA Cup Update - 3rd Round: Manchester United 0 - Leeds 1

Jermaine Beckford (above) scored in the 19th minute as Leeds United upset Manchester United at Old Trafford. These two teams were once heated rivals, but this was their first match in over five years. Leeds are currently first in League One, and Beckford is their rising star. This defeat means Manchester United have been eliminated from the FA Cup in the third round for the first time since 1984.

FA Women's Cup

In case you missed it, Arsenal beat Leeds 4-1 earlier in the week to win their record-setting ninth FA Women's Cup. Arsenal had about two-and-a-half million shots in the first half but the Leeds goalkeeper, Carly Telford stopped them all. In the second half, though, Arsenal scored three times in five minutes and that was that. (To give you an idea of how well Telford played, she won the player of the match award despite giving up four goals in the second half.)
