QPR see off plucky MK Dons to win replay


Queens Park Rangers and Bolton both dispatched lower league opposition to win their FA Cup third round replays on Tuesday night.

Danny Gabbidon scored his first goal in seven years for QPR to see them into the fourth round where they will renew old rivalries with West London neighbours Chelsea.

The former West Ham man was the top scoring player on the night, earning six Fantasy League points for his goal and a clean sheet.

Bolton will travel to Swansea in round four after they finally saw off League Two side Macclesfield.

Bolton 2 Macclesfield 0

Kevin Davies opened the scoring inside a minute when Ivan Klasnic closed down a clearance, dispossessed the defender and crossed for the veteran striker to tap in.

Martin Petrov doubled the lead mid-way through the half, latching onto a through ball from Tuncay and slotting home.

QPR 1 MK Dons 0

Gabbidon's goal settled the tie, coming 17 minutes from time when he rose highest to nod in Shaun Wright-Phillips' corner.
