Blackpool belied their struggles in the Championship to dump Premier League visitors Nottingham Forest out of the FA Cup.

The Seasiders, languishing in the relegation zone after a nine-game winless run, led at half-time through Marvin Ekpiteta’s close-range finish. Michael Appleton’s side soaked up Forest’s second-half pressure and added further goals through Ian Poveda, CJ Hamilton and substitute Jerry Yates before Ryan Yates headed a late consolation for the visitors.
