Chuba continued his fine scoring form for Boro with another goal but it turned out not to be enough to save his manager Michael Carrick and the club from humiliation in the FA Cup.
It was the Mac Allister show as Brighton and Hove Albion turned on the style of Chuba Akpom and Middlesbrough in the Emirates FA Cup.
The 27-year-old scored his 10th goal in 11 matches under the former Manchester United midfielder and 14th of the season but watched as Premier League side Brighton showed no mercy in a 5-1 win in the FA Cup third round.
