Nathan Opoku and Sammy Braybrooke both started for Sky Bet League 2 side Newport County in the competition but were unable to prevent a 3-0 defeat to Enterprise National League outfit Boreham Wood on Sunday.

A disappointing day at Meadow Park for the Exiles.

Returning to league duties this Wednesday, Christian Fuchs’ men will take on Crewe Alexandra at Mornflake Stadium (7:45pm kick-off).

Kian Pennant was unable to help Gateshead cause an FA Cup upset, playing 90 minutes for National League Gateshead in a 2-0 reverse to fourth-tier league leaders Walsall.

Attention turns to another cup competition on Saturday, hosting Morecambe in the FA Trophy Third Round (3pm kick-off).

On the ball against Hibs.

Jayden Joseph, meanwhile, was involved throughout Tranmere Rovers’ Vertu Trophy exit, defeated 3-0 by Fleetwood Town in the last-32 clash at Prenton Park. A league fixture with Barrow is coming up at Holker Street tomorrow (Tuesday) night – a 7:45pm kick-off.

Up in Scotland, Henry Cartwright came on as a half-time substitute for Falkirk in their 3-0 Scottish Premiership loss at Hibernian, leaving the Bairns seventh in the table ahead of hosting Hearts on Saturday (8pm kick-off).

Full-back Woyo Coulibaly made a short cameo for Sassuolo in their 3-1 Serie A victory over Fiorentina, introduced with 12 minutes to play at Mapei Stadium. Moving up to eighth in the standings, I Neroverdi head to San Siro on Sunday morning, facing AC Milan (11:30am kick-off).

Cup victory sees Stuttgart progress into the quarter-finals.

In the Bundesliga, Bilal El Khannouss played 74 minutes for VfB Stuttgart in their 5-0 home defeat to league leaders Bayern Munich, having featured in the 2-0 away success at VfL Bochum in the last-16 of the DFB-Pokal Cup three days earlier.

It’s UEFA Europa League action up next, with Maccabi Tel Aviv set to visit MHP Arena on Thursday night (5:45pm kick-off).

All times GMT.
