Luton Town made FA Cup history with a 1-0 win away to Norwich City at Carrow Road, becoming the first non-league side in 27 years to beat a Premier League side away from home.
Substitute Scott Rendell scored from close range 10
minutes from time to seal a famous win over a Premier League team ranked
85 places above them in the league ladder.
Rendell drifted to the near post and poked the ball into the net to
convert JJ O'Donnell's cross to cap off a brilliant performance from the
Conference National side.Luton's famous victory makes them the first non-league outfit since Sutton United in 1989 to beat top flight opposition in the Cup, Sutton having famously beaten 1987 FA Cup championc Coventry City that year.
The Hatters' win against Norwich was arguably better even that that win, however, given that it took place at Carrow Road: the last time a non-league side beat top-flight opposition away from home was Altrincham's victory over Birmingham City at St Andrew's in 1986.
Norwich boss Chris Hughton rested several players, but as Luton - in particular goalkeeper Mark Tyler - held firm, club captain Grant Holt was deployed from the substitutes' bench at half-time.
Holt brought a great save from Tyler with a diving header, and soon after Anthony Pilkington and Wes Hoolahan also came on as Norwich pushed for the win.
But then came Luton's sucker punch - Alex Lawless had just volleyed wide when O'Donnell got free down the left, and Rendell showed great desire to beat the defenders to the ball and complete an FA Cup miracle.
