Yannick Sagbo earned Hull an FA Cup fifth-round replay against Brighton & Hove Albion after scoring a late equaliser in the 1-1 draw at the Amex Stadium.

Leonardo Ulloa put the hosts in front on the half-hour mark, chipping the ball over the head of Hull goalkeeper Alan McGregor.

But Sagbo brought the tie level with just five minutes remaining when he controlled Sone Aluko's cross from the right and smashed the ball through Peter Brezovan's legs.

The winner of the replay at the KC Stadium will face a home quarter-final against Sunderland where a trip to Wembley will be on the line.
