West Brom 1-2 Derby: Darren Bent and Tom Ince seal second-half comeback with two goals in three minutes to cancel out Matt Phillips opener

Tom Ince’s curling free kick brought an FA Cup twist to the amazing transformation Steve McLaren has produced since returning to Derby.

The former England boss has lifted the club to the edge of the Championship play-off chase since taking over from Nigel Pearson.

And now he’s delivered their first FA Cup win over a side from a higher division in 30 years.

Darren Bent scored from 25-yards out with a thunderous effort to draw Derby County level with West Brom in the second-half

Ince’s 54th minute effort that beat Albion stand-in keeper Boaz Myhill at his near post capped an astonishing two goals in three minutes spell that turned the tie on its head after Matt Phillips had put West Brom in front.
