Does the FA Cup have replays? Third-round rules and when matches go to extra time and penalties

If matches in the third-round of the FA Cup this week finish with scores level after 90 minutes, then the fixture will be replayed at the away side's stadium. Extra time and penalties will only be used if the aggregate score is still level at 90 minutes in the replay.

From the fifth-round of the FA Cup onwards, there are no replays, meaning matches go straight to extra time and penalties. From next season, in a bid to streamline already jam-packed calendars for clubs, third and fourth-round replays will also be scrapped.
