MAN CITY NAILED BY NOTTINGHAM

LONDON (AP) – Nottingham Forest won 3-0 at high-spending Manchester City for the biggest upset in the third round of the FA Cup yesterday. In another surprise, Southend played to a 1-1 draw at Chelsea, scoring the tying goal during injury time.

Nathan Tyson and Rob Earnshaw had first-half goals for Forest, which plays in the League Championship. Joe Garner scored in the 75th minute to complete an embarrassing result for Manchester City, which is also struggling in the Premier League despite being bought by a wealthy Abu Dhabi business group three months ago.

Peter Clarke scored during injury time on his 27th birthday for Southend, a modest League One club. Salomon Kalou had given Chelsea the lead in the 31st minute.

Stoke tumbled 2-0 at League One Hartlepool, which got second-half goals from Michael Nelson and David Foley. League One Peterborough drew 1-1 at West Bromwich Albion, which is last in the Premier League, and defending champion Portsmouth also faces a replay after being held to a scoreless tie at home by Championship club Bristol City.

There were just three matchups of Premier League teams. Sunderland edged Bolton 2-1 and Hull and Newcastle will need a replay after a 0-0 draw. On Friday, Tottenham downed Wigan 3-1.

Arsenal defeated Plymouth 3-1 helped by two goals from Robin van Persie. Everton won 1-0 at Macclesfield and West Ham outplayed Barnsley 3-0. Middlesbrough beat Barrow 2-1 and Fulham won 2-1 at Sheffield Wednesday.
