England striker Harry Kane took his league tally to 20 goals in 16 matches this season, bending a stunning right-footed strike into the far top corner to put his side 6-1 up. Wolfsburg set a Bundesliga record by scoring an own goal for a third consecutive game when Kilian Fischer diverted Luis Diaz's cut-back into his own net in the fifth minute. The visitors responded through Dzenan Pejcinovic's equaliser, but Bayern stormed back to take complete control. Diaz restored their advantage by heading in Michael Olise's cross for his ninth league goal of the season, before the French forward struck twice himself in the second half of his 50th Bundesliga match for Bayern. Olise curled home his first five minutes after half-time and added a second in the 76th minute. By then, a Moritz Jenz own goal and finishes from Raphael Guerreiro and Kane had already extended their commanding lead. Leon Goretzka added an eighth from a tight angle in the 88th minute as Vincent Kompany's side made the perfect start as the league resumed following its winter break. Second-placed Borussia Dortmund drew 3-3 at Eintracht Frankfurt on Friday night.

In front of his old boss Sir Alex Ferguson and with former team-mate Darren Fletcher in interim charge at his old club, Welbeck belted home Brighton's second to send them into the fourth round. It was the 35-year-old's eighth goal against United and his sixth visiting the stadium he used to call home. The thunderous drive into the roof of Senne Lammens' goal doubled a lead given to Brighton by Brajan Gruda's first-half opener. Benjamin Sesko's header five minutes from time breathed life into the home side but 18-year-old home substitute Shea Lacey was sent off in the final minute and Brighton held on for their first ever FA Cup victory against the 13-time winners at the seventh attempt. For United, this defeat followed up the embarrassing EFL Cup second-round exit at League Two Grimsby, meaning they had exited both domestic cup competitions at the earliest possible stage for the first time since 1981-82. It also means Fletcher's two-game stint as interim boss contributed a disappointing Premier League draw against Burnley and this home defeat to a campaign that is beginning to unravel. United have now won once in their last seven games, with title contenders Manchester City and Arsenal their next two opponents. Within the next 48 hours, the club are due to name who will replace Ruben Amorim until the end of the season, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Michael Carrick viewed as the frontrunners.

After Omar Marmoush slotted the Pharaohs ahead after just four minutes, the North Africans were never behind in the game. But Emerse Fae's Elephants are known for their resilience and refused to let their opponents blow them away despite Ramy Rabia's header giving Egypt a 2-0 lead just after the half hour. Ahmed Fatouh's own goal gave the Ivorians hope before half-time, but Salah quickly restored a two-goal cushion for the record seven-time winners. Guela Doue's backheeled effort after 73 minutes set up a grandstand finish but there was to be no fairytale comeback for Ivory Coast this time around. The result means Salah's bid for a first continental crown with his country is still on course. He will now take his team to Tangier to face Senegal, who beat Egypt in the 2021 final, on Wednesday (17:00 GMT).

The West Africans were firmly in control in the first half in Marrakech, with Adams spurning a glorious chance to open the scoring eight minutes before the break when he curled narrowly over the bar. Osimhen broke the deadlock for the Super Eagles just 85 seconds into the second half, heading Bruno Onyemaechi's deep cross from the left down and back across goal for his fourth goal at these finals. Adams added the second 10 minutes later when he rounded Algeria goalkeeper Luca Zidane after being played in by Osimhen following a fine Nigeria move. Sevilla forward Adams had a chance to make it 3-0 but headed against the left-hand upright from Osimhen's cross with nine minutes remaining. Nigeria, runners-up at the 2023 edition, will now face host nation Morocco in the last four in Rabat on Wednesday (20:00 GMT).

The hosts are ranked 117 places below Premier League side Palace, meaning this was the biggest upset in the competition of all time in terms of league places, but on the pitch that gap was non-existent as this was a deserved win for Macclesfield. Paul Dawson's brilliant header in the first half had the home fans in dreamland, before Isaac Buckley-Ricketts shocked Palace further when he prodded in a second after the break. Yeremy Pino set up a nervous finish for the hosts when he fired home a free-kick in stoppage time, but Macclesfield held on to secure the famous win.
