Manchester United 0
Exeter City 0
The magic of the FA Cup showed once more as Nationwide Conference side
Exeter City have produced one of the best cup results in history,
holding current cup holders Manchester United to a goalless draw at
Old Trafford in the 3rd round.
A depleted and relatively young Red Devils side, in all fairness,
didn't deserve to go straight though to the next stage and the
Gracians defended well to keep United at bay.

For those unfamiliar, the FA Cup is similar to the USOC. This is why
I love these type of tournemenets. The little guy when given a chance
can suprise a bigger club. This is possiblilty that exists with the
USOC ... since 1996 the only non-MLS club to win the USOC was
Rochester. Maybe we will see more excitement this year.
