Premier League teams Everton and Watford also advanced to the quarterfinals

Arsenal's bid for a third straight FA Cup title was checked by a frustrating 0-0 draw against Hull in the fifth round, forcing the teams into yet another meeting in the competition.

Fielding a weakened team ahead of a Champions League last-16 match against Barcelona on Tuesday, Arsenal created a slew of chances against second-tier Hull but was denied by a mixture of poor finishing and good goalkeeping from Eldin Jakupovic.

It is the third straight year that Arsenal and Hull have met in the FA Cup. Arsenal won in the final in 2014 and also in the third round last season on its way to winning the trophy for a record 12th time.

West Bromwich Albion exited in disgrace, though, losing 3-1 at second-tier Reading before its captain, Chris Brunt, was struck near his eye by a coin thrown by one of his team's own supporters after the game.

Premier League teams Everton and Watford also advanced to the quarterfinals. Everton beat Bournemouth 2-0, while Watford downed second-tier Leeds 1-0.

GERMANY

Thomas Mueller scored twice for Bayern Munich in a 3-1 come-from-behind victory over Darmstadt that stretched the side's overnight lead in the Bundesliga to 11 points over Borussia Dortmund.

Mueller canceled out Sandro Wagner's opener three minutes after the break and then won the game with a spectacular overhead kick in the 71st.

Substitute Franck Ribery, who returned from injury, crossed for Robert Lewandowski to complete the scoring with his league-leading 22nd goal of the season.
