    Manchester United have beaten Arsenal 5-3 on penalties in the third round of football's FA Cup after the match finished 1-all following extra time.

    The Wellington Phoenix women have dropped out of the A-League top-four with a 2-1 defeat away to Adelaide United.



    The Sydney Kings have held off the Cairns Taipans 91-87 in their ANBL basketball contest at home.

    Questions loom over which Black Caps could make way for the team's returning T20 franchise players for next month's Champions Trophy.
