West Ham secured their place in the fourth-round of the FA Cup after a marathon penalty shoot-out to inflict more misery on Everton and manager Roberto Martinez.
The Hammers were eventually indebted to goalkeeper Adrian, but not as would be expected for his saves, but instead for firing home the vital spot-kick to see his side home 9-8 on penalties after it had finished 2-2 at Upton Park after 120 minutes of their third-round replay.
Enner Valencia had given West Ham a 51st-minute lead, with salt added to Everton wounds five minutes later when Aiden McGeady was sent off for a second bookable offence.

At Molineux, there was no fitting epitaph for former owner Sir Jack Hayward on the day of his passing at the age of 91 as Wolves missed out on a fourth-round spot after losing to Fulham on penalties after a 3-3 draw after extra-time.
Fulham grabbed the opener, with Cauley Woodrow ending his side's six-and-a-half-hour goal drought with a firm 27th-minute header.
But two goals in three second-half minutes from Dave Edwards and Rajiv van La Parra had the home fans chanting Hayward's name with 17 minutes remaining.
But those chants were swiftly stifled, with Woodrow capitalising on a mistake from Carl Ikeme to poke home the equaliser from two yards to force extra-time.
Edwards again put Wolves' noses in front in the 109th minute, only for Ross McCormack to break the hearts of the home fans with a 120th-minute penalty and force spot-kicks, with Fulham winning 5-3 for a trip to Sunderland.
