Crystal Palace saw off League One side Doncaster Rovers 2-0 to progress into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.
Jeffrey Schlupp netted his fifth goal of the season in the eighth minute with a deflected finish into the bottom corner after a fine individual run from the halfway line.
Midfielder Max Meyer nodded in Andros Townsend's cross from close range to extend the lead in first-half stoppage time.
