    Manchester United have beaten Arsenal 5-3 on penalties in the third round of football's FA Cup after the match finished 1-all following extra time.

    The Wellington Phoenix women have dropped out of the A-League top-four with a 2-1 defeat away to Adelaide United.



    The Sydney Kings have held off the Cairns Taipans 91-87 in their ANBL basketball contest at home.

    Questions loom over which Black Caps could make way for the team's returning T20 franchise players for next month's Champions Trophy.

    The 15-man squad features Kane Williamson, Devon Conway and Lockie Ferguson, who are plying their trade in either South Africa and UAE as part of casual contracts with New Zealand Cricket.

    Captain Mitch Santner says batter Mark Chapman could miss out on the match-day XI at number three or four by way of an example.
