Match Preview
Branston doubtful for Gulls Guy Branston remains Torquay's only doubt as they prepare to face Carlisle in the FA Cup third round. Branston missed the Gulls` last outing - a dramatic 4-3 defeat at the hands of Oxford - thanks to a hamstring injury and could miss out once again at Plainmoor. That means Chris Robertson is set to deputise at the heart of the United defence alongside Mark Ellis. Otherwise, manager Paul Buckle has a fully-fit squad to choose from, with Nicky Wroe likely to continue his run in the team despite being transfer-listed. Ashley Hemmings - who extended his loan from Wolves until the end of the season - will continue in attack alongside the courted Elliot Benyon. Benyon has 13 goals this season and Buckle admits a move away from Devon is likely for the striker, but said: "We`re not going to give him away." Carlisle are expected to be without Lubo Michalik and Mike Grella. But new midfield signing Marco Gbarssin, who has signed an initial one-month deal, could make his debut for the Cumbrians. Carlisle manager Greg Abbott wants to bring Leeds pair Michalik and Grella, whose loan deals have expired, back to Brunton Park, but is still waiting to here about possible extensions for both players. James Chester, who had been on loan from Manchester United, has completed a permanent move to Hull and with Danny Livesey (groin) still not ready after a long-term absence, Abbott is struggling for central defensive cover. Abbott has no new injury or suspension problems and is boosted by the return of striker Jason Price following the expiry of his loan spell from Bradford.

Match Report
O'Kane stuns Cumbrians Eunan O'Kane scored the only goal of the game as Torquay dumped League One Carlisle out of the FA Cup. The Northern Ireland Under-21 midfielder struck with a thumping right-foot drive after just six minutes as to send Paul Buckle's League Two outfit into the fourth round. Buckle's side could have won more comfortably but Carlisle goalkeeper Adam Collin went full stretch to keep out a low drive from Torquay leading scorer Elliot Benyon. Collin twice had to deny 13-goal Benyon in the opening exchanges, while home keeper Scott Bevan was also tested twice by Cumbrians dangerman Francois Zoko. The lively O'Kane curled a shot around the far post after 27 minutes as the home side continued to exert pressure on Greg Abbott's side. Bevan had to palm out a 25-yard dipping free-kick from Matt Robson as Carlisle countered. The visitors almost salvaged a replay in the 83rd minute after a goalmouth scramble, but the Gulls could have scored on the counter as Kevin Nicholson sent a 30-yard shot inches wide from the far left. Benyon also went close again but his miss did not prove to be costly as Torquay held on for a fine victory.
