Millwall set up an FA Cup third round tie with Derby after thrashing Staines Town in their second-round replay.
Staines were first to threaten and Lions keeper David Forde had to push Ali Chaaban's shot around the post.
But Millwall took control when Steve Morison met Danny Schofield's pass and coolly fired home, before Morison set up Jack Smith to make it 2-0.
Alan Dunne headed home a third from a Schofield corner and Schofield added a fourth from Adam Bolder's free-kick.
Olympiakos 1 - 0 Arsenal
Arsenal's unbeaten Champions League run in Group H came to an end at Olympiakos after their youngsters were undone by a cool second-half strike by Leonardo.
The Gunners enjoyed much of the possession but Carlos Vela was guilty of wasting two excellent chances.
The hosts livened up after a drab first half, with Leonardo bursting through the defence to slot in the opener.
Lukasz Fabianski denied Leonardo and Kostas Mitroglou while Aaron Ramsey had a late shot cleared off the line.
Olympiakos held on to ensure their progression into the knock-out stages as runners-up.
With Arsenal's top spot assured, boss Arsene Wenger could afford to rest many of his stars, handing a debut to 18-year-old Tom Cruise and partnering reserve-team captain Kyle Bartley with veteran Mikael Silvestre in defence.
The Greek champions needed just a point in Athens to make the final 16, and they began very hesitantly and nervously in front of their noisy supporters.
Arsenal were rarely without the ball in the opening 15 minutes, and fit-again striker Theo Walcott had the first chance but shot straight at keeper Antonis Nikopolidis after linking up well with teenager Jack Wilshere.
Sluggish Olympiakos were restricted to long-range efforts from Luciano Galletti and Dudu thanks largely to Welsh international Ramsey pulling the strings in the absence of rested captain Cesc Fabregas.
The hosts' limp first-half effort was brought to a close rather aptly when defender Raul Bravo blazed a wild volley high and wide.
The second half was a transformation and within five minutes of the re-start Olympiakos were ahead.
Bartley flapped at a tackle on Oscar Gonzalez and the ball fell to Leonardo who strode through on goal and slotted smartly between the legs of Fabianski.

Liverpool 1 - 2 Fiorentina
Liverpool's disappointing Champions League campaign ended in miserable fashion, with Alberto Gilardino's last-gasp goal giving Fiorentina victory.
Rafa Benitez's side already knew they could not progress from Group E, while their opponents had already qualified.
Yossi Benayoun headed the Reds in front when he met Steven Gerrard's free-kick.
But Martin Jorgensen levelled with a low shot and Gilardino ensured his side topped the group when he turned in a Juan Vargos cross in injury time.
It was the third time the Reds had conceded a late goal in Europe this season, after doing so in both their matches against Lyon, and again they paid a heavy price for a defensive lapse.
But, in truth, Liverpool were unlucky to lose and it was probably of greater significance to their fans that £20m midfielder Alberto Aquilani made his first start and Fernando Torres, who played the last 30 minutes, returned to action after more than a month out.
That duo will hope to play a big part in the remainder of Liverpool's season - starting with Sunday's crunch Premier League encounter with Arsenal.
Understandably, Benitez had one eye on that game against the Gunners and, judging from the subdued atmosphere, so did the majority of the Anfield crowd.
Fiorentina, who sowed the seeds of Liverpool's Champions League exit with a stunning win in Italy at the end of September, were also short of inspiration early on - with their crippling injury list a mitigating factor.
So, most of the focus in the first half was on Aquilani, who arrived from Roma in August with a big reputation and price-tag, but until now had only played 22 minutes of first-team football from the bench because of injury.
