<p>Luton Town made a mockery of the 85 places between themselves and Norwich City to become the first minor league club to beat a top-flight side in the FA Cup for 24 years on Saturday. <br /><br /></p>.<p>Scott Rendell scored 10 minutes from time to earn the fifth-tier side a 1-0 win at Norwich’s Carrow Road stadium and leave another indelible mark in the competition’s giant-killing history. <br /><br />Premier League Queens Park Rangers also suffered a humiliating 4-2 exit at the hands of third tier Milton Keynes Dons to pile on the misery for the struggling London club who are mired deep in a relegation battle. <br /><br />Drama was in short supply at Old Trafford where Manchester United sauntered past Fulham 4-1. <br /><br />They were joined in the fifth round by champions Manchester City who won another all top flight clash against Stoke City 1-0 courtesy of a late strike from Pablo Zabaleta. <br /><br />Second tier Brighton and Hove Albion pushed Arsenal all the way on the south coast before substitute Theo Walcott scored in the 85th minute to edge his side to a 3-2 win. <br /><br />Everton’s John Heitinga scored in the 90th minute as the Premier League side beat Bolton Wanderers 2-1. <br /><br />Not since Sutton United beat Coventry City in the third round in January 1989, had a club from outside the top four divisions overcome top-flight opposition in the FA Cup. <br />Luton, relegated from the old first division in 1992 and dumped out of the Football League in 2009, lie sixth in the fifth tier of English football. <br /><br />Manchester United, seeking a 12th FA Cup triumph but a first since 2004, were far too strong for a woeful Fulham side. A Ryan Giggs penalty, two goals from Javier Hernandez and one for Wayne Rooney put the Reds in cruise controlbefore a Fulham consolation from Aaron Hughes. <br /><br />On Sunday, striker Fernando Torres rescued holders Chelsea from an ignominious fourth-round exit after his 83rd-minute equaliser salvaged a 2-2 draw at third tier Brentford. </p>
