Second-half headers from Marouane Fellaini and Louis Saha fired Everton into the FA Cup semi-finals with a 2-1 victory over Middlesbrough.

Middlesbrough had stifled the Toffees in a poor first-half and were leading deservedly at the break through David Wheater's header a minute from half-time.

But Everton boss David Moyes made an inspired substitution at the break, sending on Saha for raw youngster Jack Rodwell.
