Peterborough United came from a goal down to beat Crawley Town 2-1 and win their delayed Bristol Street Motors Trophy last-16 tie.
Nick Tsaroulla put Crawley ahead, but a deflected Harrison Burrows strike brought the hosts level.
Ephron Mason-Clark put Posh in front when he pounced on a poor pass from defence as Posh missed two good chances to add to their lead before the break.
Klaidi Lolos and Adam Campbell went close as Crawley improved.
But they could not find a way through as Romoney Crichlow hit the bar for Posh, while Joel Randall missed an opportunity to score a third.
