PivotalMansfield Town pulled off a stunning FA Cup upset, coming from behind to defeat Burnley 2-1 at Turf Moor. After Josh Laurent's close-range finish gave the Clarets an early lead from Lyle Foster's assist, the Stags showed tremendous resilience to level through Rhys Oates' perfectly-placed header from Kyle Knoyle's cross just after the break. The match turned decisively when Louis Reed produced a moment of magic, curling home a sublime free-kick into the top corner with ten minutes remaining after Florentino's foul. Burnley's desperation was evident in their flurry of late substitutions, but they couldn't find an equalizer as the League Two side progressed to the next round.
