In the League One, Rotherham United beat Milton Keynes Dons 2-1 at New York Stadium, with two Arsenal products finding the net.
Chuks Aneke curled home a beautiful free-kick to open the scoring for MK Dons in the 9th minute, but the lead lasted only 12 minutes with defender Semi Ajayi writing his name on the score-sheet off an assist from Yates.
A division lower, ex-Dream Team VI invitee Uche Ikpeazu fired Cambridge United into the lead five minutes before half-time in his team's 3-3 draw with Notts County at Meadow Lane.
Ikpeazu is having a banner season, his strike against Notts County means he has now scored nine goals in all competitions, which is a personal scoring record for the former Watford starlet.
