Middlesbrough boss Aitor Karanka was delighted with victory in the FA Cup over Oxford United.

With Boro the only Premier League side to seal progress in Saturday's 3pm kick-offs, Karanka says being in the FA Cup quarter finals is another step forward for the club.

“Once again, you look at other results and you can see what an amazing competition the FA Cup is," he said.

“We're in the next round Leicester and Burnley are out. Now we have another week to prepare for Crystal Palace.

“I think it's important for us and the club to keep going – to be in the Premier League and the FA Cup quarter finals - I don't think anybody here could imagine that three years ago."
