NBC SVGBrighton’s hopes of securing a first major trophy remain alive as Evan Ferguson’s first-half goal proved enough to secure a place in the FA Cup sixth round with a 1-0 win over Stoke City.
Ferguson’s far-post goal saw off a battling Stoke City, who came closest to equalising when defender Axel Tuanzebe sent a far-post header across goal and narrowly wide.
It is Brighton’s third quarter-final appearance in six years, having previously only been there twice in their entire history.
They reached the final in 1983, when they were beaten in a replay by Manchester United, and the semi-final in 2019, when they lost to Manchester City.
