Elsewhere, Chelsea brushed aside Hull City in the late game, Norwich City edged Burnley in the only all Premier League clash while West Ham United lost 1-0 to ex-manager Slaven Bilic's West Bromwich Albion. Former winners Portsmouth and Sheffield United also booked a place in the last 16, along with Leicester City.

“We are taking the difficult way,” said Mourinho, who won the Cup with Chelsea in 2007. “We don't need one more game but that is how it is. It is better to draw than defeat and be out.” Conor Townsend scored the game's only goal ― his first for Albion ― with a superb curling shot from the edge of the area on nine minutes. The visitors had to see out the final 20 minutes with 10 men after Semi Ajayi was dismissed for a second bookable offence.League One side Oxford secured the day's most impressive result at St James' Park in front of their 4,000 travelling fans. Newcastle played a full-strength side but still failed a way through the visitors' defence.

Another Championship side, Hull City, gave Chelsea a few anxious minutes when Kamil Grosicki's deflected strike cut the visitors' lead to 2-1 but earlier strikes by Michy Batshuayi and Fikayo Tomori proved decisive.
