Burnley reached the FA Cup quarter-finals for the first time in 20 years as Connor Roberts' late goal secured a narrow victory over League One Fleetwood.

Wales international Roberts flicked home from close range in the last minute to confirm the Clarets' place in the last eight.

Fleetwood had to play the second half with 10 men after Cian Hayes was sent off for a high challenge on Josh Cullen.

Burnley will face manager Vincent Kompany's former team Manchester City in the quarter-finals.

The last time the Championship leaders reached the last eight was in 2002-03, when they defeated Fulham in the fifth round.

Scott Brown's Fleetwood have won four of five League One games since defeating Sheffield Wednesday at Highbury in the previous round.

They were minutes away from taking the tie to extra-time as the Clarets, despite registering 31 shots and enjoying 77% possession, struggled to press home their numerical advantage after Hayes' dismissal.

But Roberts' late flick from a Vitinho shot - which came moments after Charlie Taylor's long-range effort was expertly parried by Fleetwood goalkeeper Jay Lynch - finally broke the visiting side's resistance.

Roberts' winner means he has scored in back-to-back games in all competitions for the first time in his career, having also netted in Burnley's 4-0 Championship win over Huddersfield at the weekend.
