City and Peterborough shared eight goals in a ding-dong FA Cup replay before Posh edged into the third round on penalties at Valley Parade.
T&A chief sports writer Simon Parker gives his game guide, player ratings and match stats below.
MAN OF THE MATCH
Lewis O’Brien was a non-stop bundle of energy and drove City forward at every opportunity. He also tucked away his penalty.
MOMENT OF THE MATCH
Ivan Toney’s goal from the halfway line was pretty special – even if it was at the wrong end.
MOAN OF THE MATCH
City’s defending for Peterborough’s goals. Once again, they conceded cheaply – an ongoing issue.
TACTICS
City made three changes including only a second appearance for keeper Ben Wilson. Nathaniel Knight-Percival was also back after serving his three-game ban.
