00:00:00the every talent's got everyone wants to win

00:00:04crazy gang have beaten the culture club

00:00:06this is the moment of joy that all professional footballers hope for

00:00:30good evening Halloween may be over but the FA Cup still has plenty of shocks and

00:00:35scares we have got the best of the action from the first round on the way as

00:00:39clubs from the EFL join the long road to Wembley goals from 39 ties to squeeze

00:00:44into the next 90 minutes all in the company of Danny Weber and Dion Dublin the

00:00:49lowest ranked team at this stage are Malden and Tiptree of the Isthmian League

00:00:52North Division they travel to League One Port Vale who were without a win in four

00:00:56in the league so could the jammers create a sticky situation for the EFL side

00:01:00Jonathan Pierce was watching outcome the players into bright sunshine at Vale Park

00:01:07which has seen many a cup upset with Port Vale the winning side over the years

00:01:12today the boot is on the other foot they played against Arsenal earlier on this

00:01:17season and they tried to raise their game and Darren Moore said they need to learn

00:01:22from the example of Arsenal and how to beat minnows that night as they take on the

00:01:28minnows here

00:01:31Darren Moore a wonderful playing career really 668 games made the most of the

00:01:38talent he had Jamaican international that's a poor clearance away opportunity

00:01:43for Cameron James to get the cross in 1-0 to the underdogs and Anisius Lewis puts them ahead

00:01:50poor defending possession turned over very quickly lovely early crossing and Lewis first

00:01:59to react for Kevin Horlock's side it's a lovely whip crossing acres of space in the

00:02:06middle for Lewis 1-0 to Morden and Tiptrick dreamland

00:02:13well this would be the shock of the round Connor Hall another with a Colchester United

00:02:21link

00:02:25it's a decent effort and it's 1-1

00:02:29really good shot on the turn by Rory Payton

00:02:34that's a smashing goal to level it up that'll settle their nerves

00:02:39Irish youth international showed a little bit of class there

00:02:43oh they're glad all over for the moment suddenly the game has a different complexion

00:02:53gonna get the crossing through Marvin Johnson Cole holds it up comes back there to Rhys waters

00:03:01Cole into the box it's two volleying in splendidly by George Hall

00:03:06two goals in quick succession opening up the non-league defence there's the vision of Cole he knew where George

00:03:16Hall was served up a lovely cross

00:03:20they're still in Williams

00:03:24strong in this FA Cup meandering campaign for Morden but they're up against it here now

00:03:31comes to Payton another big giant sidesteps a defender and they're cruising now

00:03:37it's 3-1 and they've scored three and three

00:03:41suddenly gone up through the gears and the Isthmian League Northern Division side can't cope with this

00:03:47Payton holding his run finding the space a little bit of composure fine finish 3-1 Port Vail

00:03:53well they're determined to enjoy the day out he won't though with his defending like that

00:04:01Chessie Debra played international football for Barawa that's the team made up of Somali players this is a lovely move

00:04:11move again comes back to Cole and a really tight finish it's four for Port Vail

00:04:17again exploiting the spaces in the wide positions and once it comes in from that wide position

00:04:24they are finishing in devastating fashion five home league goals before today they've scored four in the opening half of this match

00:04:34Clipped in by Johnson now Rhys Walters

00:04:40Payton shoot shoot by the crowd to George Byers

00:04:45and he gets a shot away and the fingers of Elliot Justin push it out for a corner

00:04:49on the cruise into the Morden and Tiptree half the defensive midfield of the non-leaguers is melting away

00:05:00Cameron Humphries

00:05:05Byers helped it on

00:05:07coming across to cover was Jack call it

00:05:11we're into the last 90 seconds of the half

00:05:15pinged in

00:05:20decent header clear at the near post

00:05:24that's a fine effort and a good save

00:05:26smart stop pressure is still on Payton and he has to save again

00:05:32that's a smart effort on the half turn by Debra

00:05:40it's a decent save and then the follow-up

00:05:43nicked through slight deflection took the sting out of it easier save that one

00:05:46stretchers couldn't get there but held the ball off against

00:05:54the challenge of Dylan Williams

00:05:56and he's on hand now if they can play the ball to Cole

00:05:59little bit head down George Hall

00:06:01picked up by Byers

00:06:03Cole is in at the near post

00:06:04just behind Mo Fowl

00:06:05he's still alive

00:06:07the ball back to Payton

00:06:08and that hat-trick will not come for him

00:06:10deflected wide again

00:06:12he's had eight efforts Payton in the game

00:06:15didn't perhaps catch it as well as he might have

00:06:17he'll take the corner

00:06:19Cole is at the back post

00:06:22area it's in he got the last touch

00:06:24Byers will want to claim the goal

00:06:26but Cole got the last touch

00:06:27it's five

00:06:29and on by Byers

00:06:32and Cole I don't think he knew much about it to be honest

00:06:34just lifted up

00:06:36that left boot

00:06:37came off his calf

00:06:38and it's five for Port Vale

00:06:40they came to enjoy the day

00:06:44I think everyone involved with Maldon Tiptree has done just that

00:06:48but they have been outclassed and Port Vale

00:06:50thoroughly deserve this

00:06:52it's Curtis

00:06:56decent defending by James

00:07:01and that's glued on the ball

00:07:02another corner kick though for Port Vale

00:07:03bunching around the goalkeeper

00:07:08but they have the six

00:07:11and it's Jesse Debra who gets it

00:07:14was the most physical in there

00:07:16wanting it more

00:07:18I think they've had a chat about that

00:07:21goal

00:07:22you don't know what you're doing was a cry from the

00:07:25from the fans

00:07:26Debra's

00:07:27header in stoppage time

00:07:29ruled out for a foul I think

00:07:32I actually thought that the goal probably after six minutes woke us up

00:07:36so it actually woke us up, it woke the arena up, it woke the team up

00:07:39and you've seen the reaction after that for the next probably 20 minutes, half an hour

00:07:43but I said to the players it shouldn't have got to that situation to wake up

00:07:47because we should have managed the situation better

00:07:49so credit to them for scoring the goal

00:07:52but certainly it gave us the jolt that we needed to go and get the goals

00:07:57I thought we had them on the ropes first five minutes

00:07:59but we scored 85 minutes probably too soon

00:08:02we poked the bear and they come alive

00:08:04but it was a magical moment for us

00:08:06and you start dreaming and believing

00:08:08but fair play to them

00:08:09they're a good side

00:08:10and asked a lot of questions of us

00:08:12and we retreated

00:08:13and we got deeper

00:08:14and then obviously their quality showed

00:08:16they scored quick succession goals

00:08:18and it put us on the back foot

00:08:19and then it become a very difficult afternoon for us

00:08:21If we've got an FA Cup game you want to try to get as far as you can in a competition

00:08:24and you know see in terms of if we can get another big draw like an Arsenal

00:08:28or keep progressing on to later rounds

00:08:30but yeah I think you can obviously take the good stuff from these games

00:08:34but all in all it needs to change in the league in terms of the ruthlessness that we had today

00:08:39And Rory Payton had a very good game

00:08:42we'll come onto that very shortly

00:08:4399 league places separating these two sides

00:08:46good evening to Danny and Dion

00:08:48great to see you

00:08:49professional job done by Baudville

00:08:51Yeah and I think he's right

00:08:53they were on the ropes

00:08:54first five minutes they were on the ropes

00:08:56I think Moulding started absolutely fantastic

00:08:58and Darren Moore you know he's an honest manager

00:09:01listen we got caught on the back foot

00:09:03and we needed that bit of a shake up

00:09:05and as soon as they got shook up a little bit you've seen the quality rose to the top

00:09:10Yeah and you have picked out Rory Payton as the star man Danny

00:09:13Yeah I think Rory Payton was everything good about Port Vale in the first half

00:09:16I think he was bright

00:09:17he was on the front foot

00:09:19and took his opportunities

00:09:20you heard in his interview that he really wants to get to the next round

00:09:23he mentioned Arsenal

00:09:24as somebody he sees in his sights

00:09:26but his performance was really good

00:09:27he epitomised the front foot nature

00:09:31that Darren Moore likes in his teams

00:09:33you look at here he's just peeling away

00:09:35trying to find a half a yard

00:09:36and he's got really tidy feet

00:09:38and spins and doesn't think twice

00:09:40puts a great finish past

00:09:42past the goalkeeper

00:09:43and then this one is a run into the box

00:09:44he's got his arm up

00:09:45but it's a great first touch

00:09:46sets him up

00:09:47a little dummy there

00:09:48and has the presence of mind and quick feet

00:09:51and this is a chance shortly after that

00:09:54again in the first half

00:09:55he just snatches at that one

00:09:56and you think after he'd done so well

00:09:58that he'd have taken it

00:10:00but he was bright

00:10:01yeah he got

00:10:03he got ran close for the hat-trick as well

00:10:05because Devante Cole

00:10:06just you know

00:10:07doing

00:10:08what his dad would have done

00:10:10getting in those correct positions

00:10:11I mean yeah

00:10:12now that is

00:10:13that is

00:10:14that's his dad all day long

00:10:15just being in the right position

00:10:16Andy Cole would have done exactly that

00:10:18where's the ball going to bounce

00:10:19you know he's a chip off the old block

00:10:20and they just showed very sort of

00:10:22calmness and professionalism

00:10:24when they had the ball

00:10:25and we have to say Dion as well

00:10:26well done to Maldon and Tiptree

00:10:27they had to win six matches to get to this position

00:10:30their journey started on the 2nd of August

00:10:32when I think the three of us were on a beach somewhere

00:10:34when they beat Buckhurst Hill 5-0 in the extra preliminary round

00:10:38it has been some journey

00:10:40but those opening five minutes as Kevin Horlog said

00:10:42they were in it for those five minutes

00:10:44and what a fantastic start

00:10:45yeah they were

00:10:46and they made a great start

00:10:47I think it was

00:10:48you know Lewis who got the first goal

00:10:50it was

00:10:51a great front

00:10:52again look at that

00:10:53how they're closing down

00:10:54you know Cameron James

00:10:55doesn't think twice

00:10:56puts the ball in the box

00:10:57and Port Vale can't recover

00:10:58they're in good possession

00:10:59but if you just watch

00:11:01here

00:11:02he looks forward

00:11:03Inicius Lewis

00:11:04keeps his eye on the ball

00:11:05it's a lovely cushion finish

00:11:06yeah I think that's the key

00:11:07you liked that finish didn't you?

00:11:08yes it's the key to it

00:11:09me and Dan

00:11:10you know would have done exactly the same

00:11:11it's like a golf shot

00:11:12you just don't look up

00:11:13don't lift your head

00:11:14keep your eye on the ball

00:11:15good connection

00:11:16goal's not going to move

00:11:17it's an old saying

00:11:18they look good for five minutes

00:11:19well done to Port Vale

00:11:37Reading have gone from the Premier League

00:11:38to the financial brink

00:15:00Regan good evening to you

00:15:01great to see you

00:15:02you must be absolutely buzzing

00:15:04how are you feeling today?

00:15:05yeah to be honest I'm buzzing

00:15:07I'm still buzzing from yesterday

00:15:09it was a special

00:15:11it was a special

00:15:12three points

00:15:13I mean

00:15:14crumbled

00:15:15crumbled yeah

00:15:16it was a cup game

00:15:17that's right

00:15:18it was the FA Cup

00:15:19yeah yeah

00:15:20don't worry

00:15:21it's live television

00:15:22don't you worry about it

00:15:23don't you worry about it

00:15:24but in many ways

00:15:25it's a fantastic comeback

00:15:27what did Mark Hughes say to you at half time?

00:15:30to be honest I wasn't in there at half time

00:15:32I was out on the pitch

00:15:33but I'm sure he was just getting the lads up for it

00:15:35and he said he was going to make changes

00:15:37and that's what he did and that's when I managed to come on

00:15:39yeah so Mark has said Regan's been doing that all season

00:15:42no surprise anymore

00:15:43the kid's got something

00:15:44as soon as he gets half a yard

00:15:46he's able to get so much power in his shots

00:15:48lovely words from a true legend

00:15:51yeah I'm loving working under the gaffer

00:15:53and obviously playing with the lads as well

00:15:56and obviously scoring a hat-trick against a league one outfit

00:15:59was a special feeling for me

00:16:00obviously Regan you've started the first hour on the bench

00:16:03were you watching from the sideline

00:16:05because we're looking at your movement

00:16:06and you've managed to find space in different ways

00:16:09on each of your goals

00:16:10was that something you saw from the sideline

00:16:12and thought you could bring into the game?

00:16:15I'm a confident player at the moment

00:16:17so if I get opportunities

00:16:18I'm confident that I can take them

00:16:20so I was hoping that I'd get in various situations

00:16:23with full backs

00:16:24with other players as well

00:16:25and hopefully take them

00:16:27and that's what I've done

00:16:28I've managed to score one

00:16:30and once I scored one

00:16:32I spoke to I think Callum Whelan

00:16:34and Chris Conclarty said

00:16:36if you get another chance

00:16:37I know you'll finish that as well

00:16:38and that's what I ended up doing

00:16:40We're just watching your goals now Regan

00:16:42and what I was impressed with is

00:16:45how you kind of leave the space in front of you

00:16:48so the ball can be played for you

00:16:50not to you

00:16:51you never get in that position too early

00:16:53you seem to play on instinct

00:16:55Yeah, I think I do play on instinct

00:16:58I just try, like I just said

00:16:59I just try and get myself in situations

00:17:01and create space for myself

00:17:04and obviously I managed to score three yesterday

00:17:07I feel very old mate

00:17:09because I've played with your gaffer

00:17:11What kind of things have you taken from him?

00:17:15because having played with him

00:17:16I know how good he is as a centre forward

00:17:19I know how good he is as a talker

00:17:21what specifically have you got from

00:17:24a world class striker like your boss?

00:17:28He just tells me to express myself

00:17:31he's always on us as a front four

00:17:33to get in opportunities

00:17:35and create space for ourselves

00:17:36and obviously get as many shots off as we can

00:17:39because the more times you shoot

00:17:41then there's a possibility that you're going to score

00:17:43so that's what we do

00:17:44Dion's made me feel really old

00:17:46he played with him

00:17:47I watched Sparky play for Wales

00:17:48in the 80s

00:17:49in the 80s

00:17:50you make me feel really old

00:17:51but also Regan

00:17:52just before you go

00:17:53you want to go on a good cup run of course

00:17:55who do you follow?

00:17:56who would you love potentially

00:17:57in the third round if you get there?

00:18:01Liverpool probably

00:18:02that would be a big one for me

00:18:04Liverpool, yeah

00:18:05Yeah, and one final question

00:18:06we all want to know

00:18:07where's the match ball?

00:18:08because if we'd scored a hat-trick in the cup

00:18:10in dramatic circumstances

00:18:11we'd have it ready to show

00:18:12the viewers on Match of the Day

00:18:13where is it?

00:18:14I'm going to be honest

00:18:15it's still in my car

00:18:16brilliant stuff

00:18:20well Regan

00:18:21best wishes to you

00:18:22keep it going

00:18:23and say a very well done

00:18:25to Mark Hughes as well

00:18:26give him our regards

00:18:27thank you so much

00:18:28Good luck

00:18:29well done Regan

00:18:30thank you very much indeed

00:18:31congratulations to Carlisle United

00:18:33five other National League sides

00:18:34were looking to get the better

00:18:35of their EFL counterparts yesterday

00:18:37including Gateshead

00:18:38who took on AFC Wimbledon

00:18:39of League One

00:18:40the FA Cup is carved into Wimbledon's identity

00:18:45the crazy gang were the ultimate underdogs

00:18:48so they'd have recognised something about

00:18:50non-league Gateshead's methods

00:18:52defend strong

00:18:53and then when you can

00:18:55spring into action

00:18:56in just a few passes

00:18:57and a few short seconds

00:18:59Kane Adam was away

00:19:01breathless

00:19:02ruthless football

00:19:03in the past quarter of a century

00:19:05Gateshead have had ten cracks at league teams

00:19:07and lost all of them

00:19:09but they've found a formula

00:19:10another break

00:19:11and though Dons keeper Nathan Bishop saved

00:19:14Fenton John was in just the right place

00:19:16to score the second

00:19:18and ultimately down the Dons

00:19:20on a famous afternoon

00:19:22for Gateshead

00:19:27Exeter City made the long journey north

00:19:29and saw a well-travelled defender score

00:19:31a stunning first goal for the club

00:19:33against FC Halifax town

00:19:35he delivers it towards the back post

00:19:37Vrieshans and he's running in

00:19:39Danny Andrew

00:19:40and it's the league one side who take the lead

00:19:43Vrieshans boss Gary Caldwell

00:19:45once lifted the cup with Wigan

00:19:46and his side safely avoided a potential slip here

00:19:49that's a loose pass out of the back from Halifax

00:19:51here's Akeel Higgins

00:19:52fed by Browley

00:19:53back towards Browley again

00:19:54good save by the core keeper

00:19:56Jadon Wimbledon

00:19:57ends it in

00:19:58Exeter enjoyed a cup adventure

00:20:00as far as round four last season

00:20:02they're up and running again

00:20:0644 league places and around 40 miles

00:20:08separate these two Yorkshire sides

00:20:10York took more than 2,500 fans to Oakwell

00:20:13and certainly gave them something to cheer about

00:20:15Banks puts across it to Vapas

00:20:17Stokes to the header

00:20:18and he's got it!

00:20:19Judge Stokes gets his goal

00:20:23York City take the lead

00:20:25they deserve

00:20:27but Barnsley came back to the slight disappointment

00:20:29of the commentator

00:20:30that's a nice ball from Cleary

00:20:32into the penalty area

00:20:33Barnsley man still got it

00:20:34tight angle

00:20:35pulls it middle of the goal

00:20:36gonna shoot and they're gonna score at Barnsley

00:20:37and it was an easy tap in from six yards

00:20:39then they took the lead

00:20:41to Ferugia

00:20:42he'll put a left footed cross in

00:20:43no he keeps hold of it

00:20:44round the corner it goes

00:20:45laid off back to him

00:20:46the edge of the box

00:20:47now he tries to dink it through

00:20:48they're throwing goal

00:20:49and they're gonna score

00:20:50he took that goal really really well

00:20:51the kilo done

00:20:52but his mood picked up

00:20:53here comes Alexan

00:20:54right footed

00:20:55round the wall

00:20:56the goalkeeper

00:20:57oh what a block on the line

00:20:58for Pearce

00:20:59there it is

00:21:00it's the equaliser

00:21:01York City deserved

00:21:02into the roof of the net

00:21:04it's 2-2

00:21:05but the home side

00:21:06would not be denied

00:21:08and it comes now

00:21:09into the penalty area

00:21:10freehead overscored

00:21:11and once again

00:21:12Barnsley have taken the lead

00:21:13in injury time

00:21:18Scunthorpe United second

00:21:19in the National League

00:21:20travelled to Blackpool

00:21:21confident of causing an upset

00:21:23it was a league one side

00:21:24who took an early lead

00:21:25through Ashley Fletcher

00:21:27it was a lead they almost

00:21:28conspired to surrender

00:21:29as panic took hold

00:21:30in a farcical series

00:21:32of back passes

00:21:33poor touches

00:21:34and missed challenges

00:21:35somehow the ball

00:21:36was scrambled clear

00:21:37to ensure back to back

00:21:38wins for new boss

00:21:39Ian Evatt

00:21:40in his pre-match program notes

00:21:45the Boreham Wood chairman

00:21:46harked back

00:21:47to a previous meeting

00:21:48between these two

00:21:49in 2006

00:21:50when his side

00:21:51had pulled off an upset

00:21:52to win in the FA Trophy

00:21:54both have come a long way

00:21:55since then

00:21:56but could they do it again?

00:21:57well they started strongly

00:21:58with just nine minutes

00:21:59on the clock

00:22:00Matt Rush slotted the ball home

00:22:02just a few minutes later

00:22:04a poor challenge

00:22:05on the edge of the box

00:22:06by the Crawley captain

00:22:07Dion Conroy

00:22:08led to a penalty

00:22:09which Zac Brunt

00:22:10calmly stroked into the net

00:22:11the 20-25 version

00:22:13of the upset

00:22:14was on

00:22:15Crawley's miserable

00:22:16afternoon got worse

00:22:17Ryan Loft saw red

00:22:19before half time

00:22:21a lovely curling shot

00:22:22from Abdul Abdul Malik

00:22:24wrapped up a famous win

00:22:25and wrote a new tale

00:22:26of giant killing

00:22:27for their chairman to recall

00:22:28in years to come

00:22:30well over this FA Cup weekend

00:22:35we have seen some cracking goals

00:22:37we're going to pick out some

00:22:38from Boreham Wood

00:22:39I think Dion as well

00:22:40especially from Matt Rush

00:22:41and Abdul Abdul Malik

00:22:42yeah just

00:22:43really calm actually

00:22:44under the pressure

00:22:45of the FA Cup as well

00:22:46just

00:22:47finding your corner

00:22:49not panicking

00:22:50just you know

00:22:51picking your spot

00:22:52keeper had no chance

00:22:53I mean he's only

00:22:54a couple of yards away

00:22:55but he did take his time

00:22:56and this one here

00:22:57I would have finished this

00:22:58in exactly the same way

00:22:59he doesn't think

00:23:00he doesn't think

00:23:01let me take a touch

00:23:02he knows what he's going to do

00:23:03there's a big area to hit

00:23:04you know

00:23:05Abdul Malik

00:23:06just sticks it in the corner

00:23:07keeping no chance

00:23:08really good finish

00:23:09great finish

00:23:10also let's talk about

00:23:11Gateshead as well Danny

00:23:12Kane Aydon

00:23:1310th goal of the season

00:23:147-7 for Aydon

00:23:15he's on a bit of a run

00:23:16yeah he's really bright

00:23:17you know

00:23:18if you look at the goal

00:23:19when it comes in to him

00:23:20you see the clearance here

00:23:22he flicks it on

00:23:23but then it's the intention

00:23:24he runs with

00:23:25he runs

00:23:26sets the intention

00:23:27and nookie points

00:23:28yeah brilliant

00:23:29it sets him up

00:23:30and I think

00:23:31I half think he's going

00:23:32the other side

00:23:33but you know

00:23:34in fairness to him

00:23:35I take 20 of those a season

00:23:36hold on a second

00:23:37it's a big moment

00:23:38on match of the day

00:23:39no

00:23:40and you turn round and go

00:23:41I think he's gone for the other side

00:23:42he's put it in the back of the net

00:23:43you've got to give him his credit

00:23:44you take 20 a season

00:23:45he's on a run

00:23:46great stuff

00:23:47thank you very much indeed

00:23:48well

00:23:49non-league Eastleigh

00:23:50no strangers to a first round

00:23:51giant killing

00:23:52the Spitfires

00:23:53took out the Royals

00:23:54Reading that is

00:23:55at this stage two years ago

00:23:56could they repeat the trick

00:23:57when they hosted

00:23:58League 2 leaders

00:23:59Walsall this afternoon

00:24:00Matty Upson

00:24:01joined Mark Scott

00:24:02in the commentary box

00:24:03for this one

00:24:04Eastleigh boss

00:24:05Scott Bartlett

00:24:06says his side

00:24:07have a great chance

00:24:08of beating Walsall today

00:24:09and he doesn't think

00:24:10a massive upset

00:24:11given the experience

00:24:12he has in his ranks

00:24:13Jordan Cousins

00:24:14a prime example

00:24:15of that

00:24:16the Spitfires captain

00:24:17with over 300 EFL

00:24:19appearances under his belt

00:24:21Walsall have a former

00:24:22Eastleigh man in their ranks

00:24:23in Kenya

00:24:24International

00:24:25Vincent Harper

00:24:26while Kanu

00:24:27and Presley

00:24:28have been blossoming

00:24:29up top for them

00:24:30with both having

00:24:31four goals each

00:24:32for the Saddlers

00:24:33so far this season

00:24:34Evan Weir

00:24:43and here is Kanu

00:24:45Lakin

00:24:49that's behind

00:24:51for a Walsall corner

00:24:53the referees going across here

00:24:56but also there's some

00:24:57treatment needed for

00:24:59Jordan Cousins

00:25:00who's on the deck

00:25:01at the moment

00:25:02looks like they're going to be forced

00:25:04into

00:25:05an early change here

00:25:08with Kieran Evans

00:25:10coming on for Cousins

00:25:11and this is a hammer blow

00:25:13for Eastleigh

00:25:20so taken

00:25:21and all the way across

00:25:22and it's in

00:25:23and Walsall are in front

00:25:27well it was an absolute horror show

00:25:29at the back

00:25:32big ball into the box

00:25:34they're looking

00:25:35for Weir at the back post

00:25:36but it just

00:25:37doesn't get dealt with

00:25:38there's a little bit of holding

00:25:39in there

00:25:40and it just hits Weir

00:25:41and it bundles

00:25:42into the back post

00:25:43really

00:25:44horrible goal

00:25:45to concede

00:25:46so early on

00:25:49Clarke

00:25:52Humphrey's got a boot in

00:25:53and Harris gets it

00:25:54further clear

00:25:55Magookin chasing

00:25:56Flint

00:25:57guides it in a fashion

00:25:58to Evan Weir

00:25:59who has not quite

00:26:00put enough on that

00:26:02well almost an absolute calamity

00:26:04they're still not out of the woods

00:26:05yet

00:26:06that's a good save

00:26:07low down from

00:26:08Miles Roberts

00:26:09to prevent Eastleigh

00:26:10drawing level

00:26:11they've got to apply pressure

00:26:12force mistakes

00:26:13and errors

00:26:14it's a bit of a bizarre day

00:26:15of weather

00:26:16there's wind

00:26:17the sun's in your eyes

00:26:18it's one of those days

00:26:19that anything could happen

00:26:20can easily do

00:26:21what Walsall did to them

00:26:23from this corner kick

00:26:29seems to a pretty useful area

00:26:30Pierre got a piece of it

00:26:31Humphrey's off the bar

00:26:34they nearly did get level

00:26:35from a corner of their own

00:26:38that is a tough one

00:26:39to get over the top of

00:26:40it just didn't come down enough

00:26:42I think the goalkeeper would've

00:26:43certainly saved it

00:26:44maybe just tipped that onto the crossbar

00:26:46spitfires

00:26:48revving up their engines

00:26:50here's an opportunity

00:26:51no

00:26:52taken brilliantly

00:26:53no

00:26:54it looked for all the world

00:26:55as though Harvey Saunders

00:26:56had bent that in

00:26:57and his reaction to Jesse

00:26:59knows that he should have done

00:27:01really good gamble

00:27:03anticipation from Saunders

00:27:04to actually get him for the opportunity

00:27:12Barrett

00:27:16home fans querying

00:27:18that decision

00:27:19likewise Archie Harris

00:27:22that first touch

00:27:23just there

00:27:24the second one comes inside

00:27:25he just couldn't put the brakes on

00:27:26and then that right leg

00:27:27comes out

00:27:29Evan Weir the goal scorer

00:27:31will deliver

00:27:36Townsend

00:27:37oh he's dropped it

00:27:38it's not quite two

00:27:40big big let off

00:27:42after Nick Townsend

00:27:43spilled straight into the path

00:27:45of Daniel Canu

00:27:46and Walsall

00:27:47so close to doubling their lead

00:27:54Weir

00:27:55lovely pass

00:27:56Canu

00:27:572-0

00:27:58real moment of class there

00:28:00from Daniel Canu

00:28:01has put daylight

00:28:03between Walsall

00:28:04and Eastleigh

00:28:05and now

00:28:06it's a tall order

00:28:07for the non-league side

00:28:09first real time

00:28:10seen him get

00:28:11any kind of space

00:28:12and run

00:28:13there's a big gap there

00:28:15between the centre-back

00:28:16and the right-back

00:28:17for Eastleigh

00:28:18but that's a brilliant finish

00:28:19high and into the near

00:28:20pose

00:28:21you can either go across the goal

00:28:22there

00:28:23or exactly where he puts it

00:28:24and it's a brilliant finish

00:28:29Lakin

00:28:31Canu

00:28:32oh lovely touch

00:28:33Canu

00:28:35arguably a more presentable

00:28:36opportunity

00:28:37than the one that he stuck away

00:28:38he has really started to show his quality

00:28:47Presley gets it back

00:28:49and he's inches away

00:28:51from sealing the win once and for all

00:28:52for Walsall

00:28:53well he might not have been motoring up the channel

00:28:56but he certainly nearly just found the far post corner here

00:28:59only a foot wide

00:29:05Rico Brown

00:29:06oh that's

00:29:07a bit casual

00:29:08and they could be in here

00:29:09great save

00:29:11Miles Roberts down

00:29:12with a strong leg

00:29:14to prevent Eastleigh turning it into a one goal game

00:29:21useful

00:29:22Matt might be in here

00:29:27complete air kick from Brindley

00:29:29and it's Jamil Matt to wrap it up

00:29:32which he has done

00:29:34game over

00:29:36Walsall through

00:29:37to the second round of the FA Cup

00:29:40oh the moment Brindley

00:29:42really commits to winning this ball

00:29:45like a flying air kick

00:29:47doesn't make any contact

00:29:49then he knows exactly where that bottom corner is

00:29:51he's been in this situation a few times over the years

00:29:55and he makes no mistake there

00:29:57that's his 141st goal since making his

00:30:01professional debut with Kidderminster Harriers

00:30:03back in 2010

00:30:06obviously it was a really good start to the game for us

00:30:08and I want us to be really competitive from set plays

00:30:10I think it's a big area for us

00:30:12so I was really delighted to get our noses in front

00:30:15and I'm really delighted for Jamil to go and score

00:30:18because there's not many people more that are losing

00:30:20people more that are as respected as Jamil in our levels

00:30:23and he's an unbelievable person

00:30:25we've come up against a really good team

00:30:26really well coached

00:30:28really good individuals

00:30:30we had our moments

00:30:32I thought first half I was as good as we've been since I've been here

00:30:35I thought we opened them up a few times

00:30:37and we made it like we talked about before

00:30:39made it a proper cup tie

00:30:41but we needed to do that for longer really

00:30:43the second goal knocked the stuffing out of us a little bit

00:30:45and after that I thought they were comfortable in the end

00:30:48Yeah, proper assessment

00:30:51that's exactly what happened

00:30:52however, Eastleigh did make it a cup tie Danny

00:30:55I think the difference was the clinical nature of both teams

00:30:58Eastleigh having 64% of the possession

00:31:01created some chances

00:31:03and then you've got Walsall who had 3 shots on target and scored them all

00:31:07so that was the difference

00:31:09but I feel that Eastleigh gave a good account on themselves

00:31:11despite losing 3-0

00:31:12and if they put one or two away he'd have been ok

00:31:15And Dion, Daniel Kanu, 20 years old

00:31:16scored 5-12 for Walsall

00:31:18so he's joining on a season long loan from Charlton Athletic in August

00:31:22what a prospect

00:31:24Yeah, it just looks quite a natural finisher

00:31:27you know, he gets himself a really good goal

00:31:29he could have had 2 possibly 3 as well during the period of the game

00:31:32I think he just

00:31:34he takes the goal really well

00:31:35it's one of those I would have probably put in the stand

00:31:38because it was on my left foot

00:31:39but he just, he swings it and he sticks it in the top corner

00:31:42it's in off the post as well

00:31:43he bends his run

00:31:44what he does, he goes towards the ball

00:31:46and leaves the area to be passed

00:31:48leaves the area so the ball can be passed into

00:31:51and he just, he literally just puts his laces through it

00:31:54and look at him, delighted as well

00:31:55and rightly so because he worked hard for the goal

00:31:57It's a great goal, it's a tight angle that as well Danny

00:31:59It is a tight angle and you're looking at it and you think

00:32:02you've got to hit it there because the defender's coming in on you

00:32:04so you've got to take the shot

00:32:06it's a tough one across because the keeper's angles weren't bad

00:32:08so to put it in at the near post at that height

00:32:10with that pace on it

00:32:12was everything he had to do and he did it really well

00:32:14And Dion, looking at the stats, Eastleigh had 64% of the ball in the game

00:32:1711 shots to Walsall's 13

00:32:19so they did, as Scott said there, they did make it a cup tie

00:32:22Yeah, bright, organised early on

00:32:25surprised them as well

00:32:26I just think it was just a little bit

00:32:30I mean, what they did is this

00:32:33they got the ball out of the danger area early on

00:32:36two forwards, I mean, if he's brave enough there to take a touch and go round the keeper

00:32:40he might get something

00:32:42they did get the bits but that was a very good chance

00:32:45Humphreys again here, alive in the box

00:32:48and at this point it's early on in the game, you're thinking

00:32:50they're taking the game, they're taking the game to them

00:32:51they're taking the game to them

00:32:53this one at the back post, but this is the one for me

00:32:55it was a big chance, big moment

00:32:57Saunders does everything right apart from the execution of the finish

00:33:00the run, you see it here

00:33:02just runs off, off the defender

00:33:04the defender's got his arm up and he's hit it on the half wall

00:33:06he just doesn't curl it, he needs to wrap his foot around it

00:33:08but the timing of it, everything's right apart from the finish

00:33:11Has he just rushed it there, Dion?

00:33:13No, he hasn't, he hasn't, he's just got it wrong, Dan, hasn't he?

00:33:15He's got it wrong, just opened his foot out a little bit too much

00:33:17he's tried the correct finish because the ball's coming up off the grass

00:33:21just needs to lift it, gets it wrong, unfortunately

00:33:23Well done to Walsall

00:33:25Right, next to last night's match where National League of Brackley Tann

00:33:27now playing at the highest level in their history

00:33:29we're at home to lead to Notts County

00:33:31who won the FA Cup back in 1894

00:33:34what a cracker this is, commentary from Pat Nevin and Martin Fisher

00:33:36and Martin Fisher

00:33:42Notts County, one of eight former winners of the FA Cup

00:33:46involved in the first round this season

00:33:48Brackley looking to reach round two

00:33:50for only the fifth time in their history

00:33:52Brackley welcomed back skipper Gazdine and Zach Lilley after suspension

00:33:56Matt Lowe scored twice in their 6-2 win over Woking in the fourth qualifying round

00:34:01Notts are without regular captain Matt Palmer

00:34:03Ollie Norburn steps in, Tyrese Hall is on a season loan from Tottenham

00:34:09Alessante Jatta has scored four in his last four games

00:34:13Zerula can hit it with his left and will try

00:34:19Pollock in the way, Dean's touch was heavy, out as far as Norburn

00:34:24and now it's Jones

00:34:25Lofsing, good ball, Jatta with the header, Notts County with the lead

00:34:31When those two combine, it usually brings reward for Notts County

00:34:37Wonderful delivery by Jodie Jones

00:34:40and Jatta, the main man, is on hand to power home his sixth of the season

00:34:45I mean you can't do any better than that, it's textbook

00:34:51Well, Chuck Price, Pollock's challenge on Robertson, play on says the referee

00:34:58Jones, time to measure in that cross, he's found Jatta

00:35:03What a challenge that is by Calder, brilliant

00:35:05Well, that's goal-saving, and it could be game-saving in many ways as well

00:35:11If you go two down this early, you just know that if he doesn't get in there

00:35:16Churchill's going to get that on target

00:35:20And right at the other end, Brackley go, and Roberts has been held back by Ness

00:35:25Just the free kick, no yellow

00:35:27So, after that reprieve, can Brackley level here?

00:35:33Price, swings it in, punched away by Roos, only as far as Little

00:35:38What a ball that is, and it's in!

00:35:42It's that man Lowe

00:35:45Roos dealt with the first one, but not the second

00:35:49Tossed in with extra spin by Little

00:35:52And Lowe is there to nudge it home, and Brackley are all square

00:35:57That's a really, really good header there in

00:36:00Well, we've got an FA Cup side on

00:36:05Matlow's fourth goal of the season, and all four have come in the FA Cup

00:36:12Throw-in has gone Brackley Towns way

00:36:15That should be a free kick, looking at that replay, it is

00:36:18Price has to put this into a danger area between

00:36:21Obviously the defence, who are really pushed not quite high now

00:36:24In by Price, up go the heads, and it drops far side, and it's in!

00:36:30Brackley Turner in front, but the flag is up, it won't count

00:36:34There's complaints from various players, but the assessment revenue is very, very quick

00:36:42Tell you what, there's a lot in that

00:36:44Back under way, and it's low

00:36:49Brackley turning the screw here, taking on Bordeaux

00:36:53Pollock attacked it near post, it might drop from Little

00:36:56Ness hacks it clear, not on the edge at the moment

00:37:00Brackley pumped up, another good spell for them

00:37:03What a cracker from Byrne, and what a save from Kela Roos

00:37:06Well right now, Notch County need the half-time whistle

00:37:16Jones has found Grant, who's in, and he's around the goalkeeper and then stumbles, penalty

00:37:22Well, he's been making that run all night long

00:37:30Oh, there's not a lot there

00:37:33Once again, this is close, real close up a little bit

00:37:38Oh, I don't know about that one

00:37:40I don't know either, Max still has been booked

00:37:42And so Jodie Jones now has the chance to beat him from 12 yards

00:37:47His only goal this season was from the spot

00:37:52Beautifully put away by Jones

00:37:54And the League Two outfit back in front

00:37:57With Jones' second goal of the campaign

00:38:00The real confidence about that, but how harsh on Brackley

00:38:04Who felt they should have had a goal just before half-time

00:38:07Zerudu has lost it to Pollock

00:38:12Robert's touch was strong

00:38:14First error there by Ness, and Brackley can go right here

00:38:17It's Little bursting forward

00:38:21Oh, 2-2, is it? Off the bar

00:38:25Now, big call here

00:38:28The dog comes in here, we're going to find out here

00:38:31Didn't go over the line, great header, gets on the end of it and...

00:38:35It's not

00:38:37But how close?

00:38:39He's hit the bar twice, no one moved there

00:38:41Bounce, bar, has it come up and hit the bar again?

00:38:43Yes

00:38:44Only has

00:38:46There are more than a few players out there that are breathing rather heavily at the moment

00:38:51But Brackley Town have given it their best shot all night

00:38:54And it continues here

00:38:56It's Calder

00:38:59Calder's ball in

00:39:01Right away across, it'll drop for Byrne

00:39:04Feels for handball there, strong shouts

00:39:08And the referee gives it

00:39:10Late drama, Oliver Norburn

00:39:13Handball, and Brackley Town get a penalty

00:39:17Two minutes from the end of added time

00:39:19Let the hands in a natural position

00:39:22The referee has got that spot on as far as I'm concerned

00:39:27This to take us into extra time

00:39:33Stewart scores, it's 2-2, and the dream is still on for National League, Brackley Town

00:39:40The FA Cup delivers yet again

00:39:46Up the line for Low

00:39:50Little centre, good one again

00:39:53Shot snatched at by Stewart, and he's wide

00:39:56He's allowed to go for it if he likes

00:40:00Considering he scored

00:40:02A vital goal to keep this tournament going for

00:40:05His team

00:40:08Jasser looks as cool as Custard

00:40:11And hits the bar!

00:40:13I did warn you

00:40:15There would be a few twists and turns to come

00:40:19Stewart scores

00:40:21Roos got something on it, but not enough on it

00:40:27Bennett's for knots

00:40:29Saved, poor penalty, too close to the keeper

00:40:32Brackley now are eyeing up round two

00:40:37It's Zac Brown, if he scores, Brackley Town are through

00:40:42And he does!

00:40:44Brackley Town from the National League

00:40:46Are through to round two of the FA Cup

00:40:50Twice behind during the game

00:40:53Twice they levelled, but they've won it from the spot

00:40:56We value the FA Cup just the same as Brackley

00:41:00But I thought they showed more impetus than we did

00:41:03So that's the real disappointing thing

00:41:05Because the football club, the supporters

00:41:07Everyone surrounding it

00:41:09Deserves a cup run

00:41:11And we failed them

00:41:13So nowhere to hide

00:41:14We just wanted to give a really good account of ourselves

00:41:16We felt like we got the game strategy right

00:41:18I felt like we were the better team

00:41:19We were fully in the ascendancy for most of the game

00:41:21Tonight it was great to get a couple of goals

00:41:23Probably should have had a few more

00:41:24If the referee hadn't have intervened

00:41:26Lots of chances, which is great

00:41:28It's important to create

00:41:30But yeah, we need to use this as a springboard now for the league

00:41:34To turn our performances into results

00:41:36Although they've been okay

00:41:38We think we can do more

00:41:40And then going into the next round is exciting to see, isn't it?

00:41:41This is what, as a boy, I dreamt of

00:41:43And I know all the players are really excited

00:41:45Well I can tell you, Dion and Danny

00:41:47I was there yesterday evening

00:41:49Presenting for Match of the Day Live

00:41:50And it was one of those FA Cup ties

00:41:52Where it was a pleasure and a privilege to be there

00:41:54Because Brackley were absolutely fantastic

00:41:56They won their tackles, more shots

00:41:58More shots on target

00:42:00Crosses in the box, Gavin Cameron really did his homework

00:42:03I mean, watching the game

00:42:05I knew I was watching an FA Cup game

00:42:07You could tell it just had that feeling

00:42:08Was it the same in the stadium, Jay?

00:42:09Absolutely

00:42:10Was it bouncing in the stadium, noisy?

00:42:12The best part was when we had to walk through the home end

00:42:14To get to our presenting position

00:42:16And during one of the controversial moments

00:42:18Two fans were watching our coverage

00:42:20And they went, that goal shouldn't have been allowed, lads

00:42:22That goal shouldn't have been allowed

00:42:24And it made me realise, that's why I love the FA Cup

00:42:26You don't get that in the Premier League

00:42:28And it's nice and close and they're with you

00:42:30Brilliant

00:42:32And I think it's great to be able to go and watch these games

00:42:34And savour these games and experience them

00:42:35They were just fantastic, Brackley

00:42:37Yeah, they were

00:42:38And you can see, even Martin Patterson at the end

00:42:40Was sort of saying, listen, we wanted to go far in the FA Cup

00:42:42So it shows how good value they were, Brackley

00:42:45Their organisation, as Dion quite rightly mentioned

00:42:47And the way they were on the front foot

00:42:49And they never had to say die attitude

00:42:51It was amazing

00:42:53Yeah, let's take a look at some of the big moments

00:42:55And even in the ground

00:42:57And watch the home fans now, Dion, here

00:42:59Everybody puts their hand up to say, that's handball

00:43:00Yeah

00:43:01And I think we were all confused

00:43:03When Ollie Norburn was looking as if to say, that's not handball

00:43:05Yeah

00:43:06He has to, he has to do that

00:43:08He has to get up and play the game

00:43:09But he knows

00:43:10And this is late on, remember

00:43:12It's 96, isn't it?

00:43:13It's amazing

00:43:14And it's Callum Stewart who had the courage to, you know, make it look easy

00:43:18And fair play to them

00:43:20They got into the shootout

00:43:21Johnny Maxted

00:43:22Johnny Maxted there

00:43:23Just guessing correct

00:43:24It wasn't a great penalty to be fair

00:43:26You know, Bennett missing that one

00:43:28But I just believe that sometimes

00:43:30You get that little bit of luck you deserve

00:43:33When you put the amount of effort that Brackley put in

00:43:36I think it's, it was deserved in the end

00:43:39And Zac Brown there going to the away fans

00:43:41To celebrate

00:43:43Yeah, big mistake

00:43:45But it was, it was just a cracking cup tart

00:43:46And I tell you something, at home, at St James Park

00:43:49League teams will not fancy that

00:43:50Yeah

00:43:51It was a really intimidating place last night

00:43:53Yeah, and you've got to make it that way

00:43:55I remember when I was at Salford

00:43:56You have to make it hostile for whoever comes to your manor

00:44:00And make it a difficult place

00:44:01Is that the cup tart you scored in?

00:44:02I think so, yeah

00:44:04I knew he'd get that

00:44:05It's the screamer from two yards

00:44:07Right, six games from

00:44:09Right, enough of that

00:44:10Six games from Saturday now

00:44:11With more non-league teams

00:44:12Dreaming of that big EFL upset

00:44:14This is just the second time the modern day Hemel Hempstead have made the first round

00:44:21Never have they made it further

00:44:23Nicknamed the Tudors because of the town's association with Henry VIII

00:44:27They were looking to make a bit of history

00:44:29But the 2013 cup winners Wigan looked to stamp their authority on the game early

00:44:34Here's a chance from Mullen across the face of goal and it's gone in

00:44:38And it's turned home by Callum Wright

00:44:41His second goal for the club

00:44:43The complexion of the match changed midway through the second half

00:44:46Matt Smith pulled Miller-Matthews-Lewis back when he was in on goal

00:44:50A penalty was given and he was sent off

00:44:53And this is Joe White

00:44:56And he scored it

00:44:58Well, are we in for an upset?

00:44:59Sadie tries one

00:45:03It falls to Mullen

00:45:04Can he do it?

00:45:05He goes down

00:45:06Here's an opportunity for Wigan Athletic

00:45:08And he goes down

00:45:09Is that the penalty for Wigan Athletic?

00:45:12Paul Mullen stepped up to take the penalty

00:45:15And he misses it

00:45:17It hits the stanchion and goes into the south stand

00:45:20Where there's nobody there to retrieve it

00:45:22The Tudors very nearly won it at the death

00:45:25Adiola with an opportunity

00:45:26Oh, he's headed off the crossbar again and it's blocked!

00:45:30Extraordinary scenes at the brick

00:45:32It was still 1-1 after extra time so it went to penalties

00:45:36Adi Aziz

00:45:38And it's saved by Sam Tickle

00:45:41That left Morgan Fox to take the decisive spot kick

00:45:44Hemel's manager Lee Allenson had promised to have a commemorative tattoo done if his side won

00:45:50Instead he'll have an occasion that's etched on the memory

00:45:52Seventh Tears St Auburn City had not enjoyed ideal preparations for their big day in the cup

00:45:59They lost their manager in the week and within 60 seconds they lost track of Burton Albion too

00:46:06They come Burton again, ball played into the penalty road

00:46:08Tyrese Shade said he was being pulled back

00:46:10It doesn't matter, he scores!

00:46:12Tyrese Shade the scorer for the lead one side

00:46:14Perhaps it couldn't get any worse for the Saints

00:46:17And for a while it didn't

00:46:19No more goals before half-time

00:46:20And then just after it

00:46:22A moment that might have changed things

00:46:24Harrison Smith with a big

00:46:26What if?

00:46:27Almost immediately it became

00:46:29What now?

00:46:30An in-fashion long throw

00:46:32Found its way to Charlie Webster

00:46:34To make it two

00:46:36Webster started out at Chelsea

00:46:38And was once thought of as one of the best young prospects around

00:46:43St Auburn's were about to see why

00:46:46He's going forward, driving towards the edge of the area

00:46:48Shoots!

00:46:50What a goal from Charlie Webster

00:46:52A goal that underlines the fact that there are four divisions between these sides

00:46:56St Auburn's needed shelter but later on they found only Shade

00:47:00Who worked space and angles superbly

00:47:03That was four

00:47:05After celebrating Shade came off

00:47:07Jack Newell came on

00:47:09And remained undetected by the St Auburn's defence

00:47:12He laid on the fifth for Fabio Tavares

00:47:16St Auburn's had conceded on average

00:47:18Just over five goals in their last six cup ties

00:47:21Against league sides

00:47:23And this would end up on trend

00:47:25Tavares again 6-0

00:47:26And this would end up on the field

00:47:27But now being through

00:47:33Spenny-Mortan from the National League North were playing in the first round for only the second time in their history

00:47:38With their fans doubtless hoping for a knees up at Brewery Field against League 2 Barrow

00:47:43Playing up the famous slope, the Cumbrian side took the lead thanks to Elliot Newby's clever chip

00:47:51Ball over the top, a lovely one looking for Wickley

00:47:53And it's 2-0 for the visitors

00:47:57Spenny-Mortan boss Graham Lee once reached round five as a player with Knox County

00:48:02But the FA Cup dream is over for his players this year

00:48:06It's been more than 16 years since Chester had a league club

00:48:11Now struggling in the sixth tier, they still brought 1,200 fans to Cambridge United

00:48:14Hoping to see their League 2 opponents slip

00:48:17Instead the U's stumbled into the lead inside ten minutes through Cillian Kwasi

00:48:25Deep towards the far post, arriving at the far post, he's fallen in

00:48:29If there was an element of accident about that goal, then Kwasi's next trick was very much on purpose

00:48:35Two team mates screamed for the pass, Kwasi chose neither of them 2-0

00:48:40Chester had their moments but this was all done before half-time

00:48:46This time Kwasi did play the pass to James Brophy

00:48:50Who hammered in Cambridge's third of an impressively efficient Cup victory

00:48:55Gondel Park was the scene of the biggest Cup upset of the season so far

00:49:02With Grimsby knocking Manchester United out of the League Cup

00:49:06This time they were the Giants, Ebsfleet were looking to do the slaying

00:49:10And they started well

00:49:12Oh for the first time, ball round the corner by Gene Kennedy

00:49:14Picks out Charlie Seaman, chance maybe to play through, will he have a go?

00:49:17Yes he does, blocks, oh and into the back of the net

00:49:19Goodness gracious me Ebsfleet, they're ahead!

00:49:22But in added time at the end of the first half, the fleet's chances headed south

00:49:27Ben Chapman, he's got in studs up, into the knee of Lewis Walker

00:49:30The referee is taking his time to make this decision

00:49:33I've not got a good feeling about it though, and it's a straight red for Ben Chapman

00:49:37In the second half, Grimsby took control

00:49:39Lovely cutting ball, finds Harvey Rodgers inside the 18 yard box

00:49:43Squared perfectly, into space, can't get a shot away

00:49:46Oh it's an air shot, second chance and into the back of the net

00:49:49And there it is!

00:49:51Edge of the box, still Grimsby have it, Sven Thorsen

00:49:55Now back out to Vernon

00:49:57Now into the middle of the box, blocked away and again saved on the line

00:50:00It's an end to the back of the net

00:50:01Nice cross from Harvey Rodgers, headed away into the chest of Kohli

00:50:08As he tries to get it away, there's Churi

00:50:11Oh it's taken a touch, off Ola Gunju and into the back of the net

00:50:14Big shout out to all our commentators as well from our BBC local radio teams

00:50:20Fantastic stuff, right goals from 25, more first round ties on the way

00:50:23But first a reminder, the Champions League returns this week

00:50:26The UEFA Champions League is back on the BBC

00:50:31With highlights of every single match

00:50:34All the goals and all the unmissable moments

00:50:37It's what everybody's talking about

00:50:39Remarkable

00:50:40What a night that was

00:50:42Match of the day, UEFA Champions League highlights

00:50:44Wednesday night on BBC iPlayer

00:50:47Before then Chappers is your host for Match of the Day tonight

00:50:50With highlights of West Ham United against Newcastle United

00:50:53And Manchester City against Bournemouth

00:50:56Or of course you can listen to commentary of the big clash in the NFL tonight

00:50:59As the Chiefs take on the Bills

00:51:01That's BBC Sounds from 9 o'clock

00:51:03Seven all non-league ties from Saturday now

00:51:06Starting with the Essex dust-up between Chelmsford City and Braintree Town

00:51:14Just 13 miles and one division separate Chelmsford City and Braintree Town

00:51:17They'd never previously faced each other in the FA Cup proper

00:51:21So this was an eagerly awaited Essex derby

00:51:24Braintree had only ever won one of their ten matches in the first round

00:51:28And it was Chelmsford who took the lead through Jason Adigan

00:51:31The upset was on for the National League South team

00:51:35When veteran striker Lyle Taylor struck a second

00:51:37With local pride as well as a place in round two at stake

00:51:43Braintree mounted a fight back

00:51:47Jesserun Uchegbulam quickly restored the host's two goal lead

00:51:52What a moment!

00:51:54Jesserun Uchegbulam

00:51:56He's only officially been a player for an hour and 40 minutes

00:52:01What a story!

00:52:03Soon after, Taylor had his second

00:52:05There was no coming back for the National League side

00:52:08A win over your local rivals

00:52:11There is nothing better

00:52:13Chelmsford City

00:52:15Who beat Braintree Town

00:52:17By four goals to one

00:52:18Three to one

00:52:21Through their troubled recent history

00:52:23Southend United have found little escapism in the Cup

00:52:26They'd won only one in nine first round ties

00:52:29And soon were up against it again

00:52:31Ben Goodliffe adjudged to be denying a goal scoring opportunity here

00:52:35Red card, only 17 minutes gone

00:52:38And around two of them had passed

00:52:40Before Wildstone made it tougher still

00:52:43Olufela Olamola with his first goal since rejoining the club

00:52:46Some robust individuals have been on Wildstone's books over the years

00:52:51Stuart Pearce and Vinnie Jones among them

00:52:53And they stood firm against the Shrimpers

00:52:56Leon Chambers Perillon tried the spectacular

00:52:58But Southend fell to a familiar fate

00:53:03As giant killings go, this might not be the most eye-catching

00:53:07But Slau currently sit in the relegation zone in National League South

00:53:10Not that you'd have known it

00:53:11On as an early substitute and making his debut for the Rebels

00:53:15And Sujena volleyed home the opener

00:53:17Victor Makowski doubled their lead

00:53:21Sliding the ball in after a great cross from Tyrese Dice

00:53:26They nearly got a third, the woodwork denying them

00:53:29But they went in at half-time, 2-0 up

00:53:31Alteringham were better in the second half

00:53:34And got a goal back through James Gale

00:53:36But Slau hung on to claim the win

00:53:38Helped in no small part by their player manager Scott Davis

00:53:41Who was at the heart of their defence

00:53:43Sun United had been eliminated in four of the last six first-round ties

00:53:48And were in no mood to make it 5-7 against AFC Telford United

00:53:54One league below them

00:53:56David Ogbonna flicked home junior Eccleston's ball

00:53:59As they hit the front before half-time with a spring in their step

00:54:02After the restart, it was Ogbonna with the assist for the sliding Ashley Naderson

00:54:07To make it 2-0

00:54:09Telford were playing at this stage for just the sixth time

00:54:12And at least had an FA Cup memory to take home

00:54:14Ricardo de Nanga stooping, if not to conquer then at least to console

00:54:18As Sutton saw the game out to progress to round 2

00:54:25The Aldershot manager John Coleman could be forgiven for not knowing much about his own team

00:54:30Let alone the opposition having only taken over last week

00:54:33Not that you'd have known it as they took the lead through Kibben Rye

00:54:36They held on to that lead until the 84th minute

00:54:38When Edmund Lewis scrambled the ball home after Luke Coulson's free kick had been cleared

00:54:43It finished 1-1 and into extra time they went

00:54:46The Seagulls manager Scott Rogers taught before the game of making the town proud

00:54:51James Waite's winner certainly did that

00:54:53And for just the second time, they're in to round 2

00:54:58Goals have always followed AFC Tottenham in their short FA Cup history

00:55:03Their only two ties yielded a remarkable total of 16

00:55:06Just saying

00:55:08They made the long journey north from Hampshire to Macclesfield

00:55:10And must have wondered if it was worth the trip

00:55:12After max striker Danny Elliott headed his side in front

00:55:15After just 6 minutes

00:55:17But there were no signs of travel sickness when Tottenham responded almost immediately

00:55:21Tony Lee's towering header brought them level

00:55:24Macclesfield are managed by Wayne Rooney's younger brother John

00:55:28Both would have celebrated Elliott's movement and persistence in notching his second

00:55:32The celebration wasn't bad either

00:55:33Back came the visitors

00:55:36Striker Scott Rendell used all his years of experience to outfox his marker and make it two each

00:55:42His second of the game was even better, a brilliant volley with a match still only 27 minutes old

00:55:48Mac's turn and that man Elliott again plundering a first half hat-trick

00:55:51Remember that thing about Tottenham's goals

00:55:553-3 and not yet half-time

00:55:57Tottenham are managed by Jimmy Ball, son of England World Cup winner and twice FA Cup finalist Alan Ball

00:56:03But wouldn't have liked the space afforded to Paul Dawson to fire the home side 4-3 in front

00:56:08Still the goals came, sadly for the National League team, all in their own net

00:56:12First, Rollin Menayese stabbed a fifth to provide some breathing room for the Silkmen

00:56:19Eleven minutes from time this breathless cup tie was over as a contest

00:56:23Lewis Fenson rifled in a sixth to send Mac through and Tottenham on a four-hour road journey back to the New Forest

00:56:291928 was the last time Chatham town made the first round, this 97-year high point took them to the peak district

00:56:40Convinced they could keep climbing

00:56:43He's gone for a goal and what a strike by the Chatham striker

00:56:47His fifth goal in their FA Cup run and the perfect start to the second half of the side from Kent

00:56:52Buxton of the league above were in a scrap and when it came to it, they showed they had the appropriate minerals

00:56:59Tate Campbell grabbed the equaliser midway through the second half

00:57:03But they couldn't find a winner in normal time, so the tie was extended into the Derbyshire evening

00:57:09About time someone took charge, thought Buxton's captain Connor Kirby

00:57:13The shot from Rage is an absolute worldie! Oh my word! Connor Kirby with probably the best goal he would have

00:57:20And that could be the goal that sends Buxton into the FA Cup second round

00:57:28Right, of all those great goals we've just seen, which one do you think we're going to pick out?

00:57:34I wonder, I wonder

00:57:36Let's go for Captain Kirby, I mean look at this for a strike

00:57:40When you wake up on an FA Cup morning, you dream of this

00:57:41Yeah, you just, you dream of getting chances, but I mean he just nudges it to his team-mate

00:57:48Team-mate nudges it back, he makes sure he keeps hold of the ball

00:57:50I'm thinking just, you know, find a team-mate, no

00:57:53Find the back of the net, 30 yards on the angle, brilliant!

00:57:56Unbelievable, he took a knock just before it, since the anger that he puts through the ball

00:58:00He just puts his foot through it, the technique was unbelievable

00:58:02Look at the celebrations!

00:58:03Look at everybody!

00:58:04The celebrations!

00:58:05Just brilliant!

00:58:06Look at that!

00:58:07That's how much it means, that's how much it means to the players that get a chance to play in the FA Cup

00:58:12Everything!

00:58:13Yeah, and remember, they were 1-0 down, so Buxton showed a lot of bottle

00:58:17Put a spring in your step!

00:58:20Very good, very good!

00:58:22Let's talk about the Braintree red card, this is Aidan Francis-Clark, Dion

00:58:26Why are you coming to me?

00:58:29Why are you coming to me?

00:58:30That's unfair!

00:58:33It's just pure frustration, it's pure frustration

00:58:37He's being pulled back, he's being pulled back

00:58:40And then he just thinks, look, there he is, look, one, two, three

00:58:44And he thinks, I can't do any more, what can I do, and he just

00:58:47I mean, you just cannot do that

00:58:49It's out of character, because he's a good player

00:58:51He's doing well this season for them in the National League

00:58:53But it's out of character for the young man

00:58:54But also, that was a bit of a tasty game anyway, wasn't it?

00:58:57Yeah, well, it's what you expect

00:58:59You know, big, big rewards

00:59:01You know, big rewards, everybody wants to do well

00:59:03And, you know, it's a platform for those players as well

00:59:05Good stuff guys, thank you very much indeed

00:59:07Right, non-League South Shields, who are second in National League North

00:59:10We're at home this lunchtime to Shrewsbury Town

00:59:12Who are at the wrong end of League Two

00:59:14This one had all the makings of an upset

00:59:16Commentary from Simon Brotherton

00:59:17Trying to pick the pass through midfield

00:59:25It was aimed towards Marquis

00:59:28Not picking him out this time

00:59:30Maybe an opportunity for South Shields to venture forward for the first time in the match

00:59:34With Blacken into the penalty area

00:59:36And just wide of the post

00:59:38Off the boot of Sedwyn Scott

00:59:40Well, there's an early shot across the bowels for Shrewsbury

00:59:44Bit of space, this is Bainbridge, the looney from Sunderland

00:59:54Bright start, two good efforts on goal inside the opening five minutes for South Shields

01:00:06Caviar looking to get the better of Bainbridge and he has

01:00:09Tinklers header away

01:00:11Come on Chris, have a word son

01:00:18Back with Caviar once more

01:00:20Having quite a tussle with Oliver Bainbridge

01:00:24Corner for Shrewsbury Town

01:00:32Stabs in Anderson now from the back in the heart of the six yard box

01:00:35Player down inside the penalty area and the referee points to the spot

01:00:46Penalty for Shrewsbury Town

01:00:48It's Mal Benning who went down

01:00:50Watch the number three there as he runs into this edge of the six yard box

01:00:55Gets a little shove from Caden Kelly

01:01:00Shrewsbury Town finding a golden opportunity to take the lead

01:01:03And it's a lead that they have thanks to Anthony Scully

01:01:09And all the good work of the opening 22 minutes for South Shields

01:01:14Suddenly goes out of the window Shrewsbury Town have the lead on the road in the FA Cup

01:01:19Rare touch of the ball in this first half for Will Brook, the goalkeeper for Shrewsbury

01:01:24Now a chance to break, Ismail Caviar

01:01:29Nice ball into John Marquis

01:01:33Pressure, second goal

01:01:37Scully at the double

01:01:38And it's turning into a tough afternoon for South Shields

01:01:44And Ismail Caviar on loan from Arsenal was the creator here

01:01:49But look at Scully in the middle

01:01:52Heading into the danger area, got there first

01:01:562-0 to Shrewsbury

01:01:57To Shrewsbury

01:02:00Robbie Tinkler finding Caden Kelly

01:02:05It was a bit loose there by Luke Woolston

01:02:08Chance now for Shrewsbury to break away here with Tommy McDermott

01:02:13Support arriving in and around the penalty area

01:02:15Could be a goal for number 10 Tom Sang

01:02:223-0

01:02:24With half time rapidly approaching

01:02:27And that could be game set and match for Shrewsbury Town

01:02:31Well they haven't had much to shout about so far this season

01:02:35Only two places off the bottom of the Football League

01:02:39But 3-0 up on the road in the FA Cup

01:02:42Mal Benning, only his third appearance of the season with the throw

01:02:49Tommy McDermott with the shot, brings the save

01:02:52Back out it comes, the shot from Luca Hall

01:02:57The substitute only just onto the field on the follow-up

01:03:00But here Tommy McDermott letting fly

01:03:03Almost midway through the second half here now

01:03:09Here's the substitute, Sean McGurk

01:03:11Lovely play from McGurk

01:03:14Ball takes a deflection and into the net

01:03:17And South Shields are on the board

01:03:19And at last the home crowd have something to cheer about

01:03:22Woolston tried to pick his spot

01:03:24The little deflection just carried it out of reach for the goalkeeper I think

01:03:28It's South Shields 1, Shrewsbury Town 3

01:03:32And a little glimmer of hope perhaps

01:03:35For the National League Northside

01:03:37Kabya still full of running

01:03:44Ismail Kabya now

01:03:46One on one with the keeper

01:03:48Good block made by Jasper Sheik

01:03:51Well Shrewsbury

01:03:53Close to scoring a fourth goal there

01:03:55But Kabya

01:03:58Denied by the South Shields keeper

01:04:00Yeah, it was always going to be a tricky tie wasn't it, Dion for South Shields?

01:04:06It was, but they did well

01:04:08They did really well, they started well

01:04:10I'm going to say they had the majority of the ball in regards percentages and they passed it really well

01:04:16They tried to play the game in the right way

01:04:18It was just their lack of quality in the final third

01:04:21Getting to good areas, choosing the wrong pass, not hitting the target

01:04:26That's what let them down

01:04:27I want to talk about Anthony Scully

01:04:28He scored his first brace in four years

01:04:30In scoring twice for Michael Appleton when he was at Lincoln

01:04:33So they know each other

01:04:34That was a 5-1 win at Cambridge in League One in September 2021

01:04:37But took his chances?

01:04:39He did take his chances, he was good Anthony Scully

01:04:41The first one being a penalty, obviously a pressure moment in the FA Cup

01:04:45You see it here, takes his deep breath and just executes that one really well

01:04:49And then the second one was, you see him on the far side of the pitch there

01:04:55But he's got to get in there first, he's got to make the run, get ahead of the defender

01:04:59And then get him where it hurts and he's there with the instinct

01:05:02And it looks difficult, but all the work's been done prior to that

01:05:05And then this was really important

01:05:07Ball comes to him here, just knocks it out of his feet

01:05:11Gets a strike away and then Tom Sang is on the spot

01:05:14And that's not an easy finish for Tom Sang either

01:05:15He's got to lift it, there's people on the line

01:05:16But he was really bright Anthony Scully

01:05:18Yeah, he was in the right place

01:05:20Shrewsbury's second away win of the season

01:05:22Their only other win, Dion on the road

01:05:24A 3-1 winner Barnett in League Two in September

01:05:26So they'll be delighted to put that

01:05:28Torrid away form in the league

01:05:30Away to one side in the Cup

01:05:32I think this will help them because

01:05:34You'll be buoyant, the training ground will be happy plays

01:05:37They'll be harming on the training ground

01:05:39Let's take that into the league now, continue that form

01:05:41And the confidence that we've shown

01:05:43Yeah, you often say that don't you?

01:05:44A Cup run can affect your league form

01:05:45You get into training on Monday, you look forward to the draw

01:05:48And suddenly you want a decent run in the league

01:05:50Yeah, I mean, Daniel telling the same thing

01:05:52If you get a win in the Cup, it's huge as well

01:05:55When you are a smaller club in stature

01:05:57You get to that, you know, the promised land of third round

01:06:00It's very, very important

01:06:01Yep, absolutely

01:06:02Right, yesterday there were eight teams from League Two

01:06:05Looking to get the better of their League One rivals

01:06:07Including Salford City were at home to Lincoln City

01:06:12Instead of a pot of gold, Salford and Lincoln were merely searching for a place in the second round

01:06:17When they met at the Peninsular Stadium

01:06:19It was the League One side who struck first

01:06:22Eric Ring picking up the ball in his own half

01:06:24Before driving his way through the Salford defence

01:06:26Before finishing in the bottom corner

01:06:27It was all a bit too easy

01:06:30They very nearly hung on

01:06:32But three minutes into extra time

01:06:34Salford's Kelly and Mai equalised

01:06:36Taking it into extra time

01:06:38There were no more goals

01:06:40So it went to penalties

01:06:42Lincoln's Tom Bayless saw his hit the crossbar

01:06:46Then Mark Howard saved Connor McGrendle's effort

01:06:49Leaving Daniel Udo to send Salford into round two

01:06:55Worth a picture for posterity

01:06:59With these two never having met before in a domestic cup competition

01:07:03Hats off to Ian Holloway

01:07:05Who's taken Swindon to second in League Two

01:07:07And bang in the middle of a promotion race

01:07:09They fell behind though when Sam Nombe

01:07:12Weaved his way through to goal inside five minutes

01:07:14The home side weathered heavy pressure from the visitors

01:07:17Until an equaliser finally came in the second half

01:07:19Well-travelled striker Ollie Palmer sweeping Swindon level

01:07:24With extra time beckoning Holloway's side were reduced to ten men

01:07:29Aaron Drinan reacted rashly to Dan Gore's challenge

01:07:33And saw red

01:07:37The game was settled four minutes from the end of extra time

01:07:40A classy winning goal from Darren Oldacre sent them through

01:07:43And suggested Swindon might well be rubbing shoulders with Rotherham more regularly next season in League One

01:07:53Harrogate's manager Simon Weaver welcomed a cup break with his side on a four-match losing streak in the league

01:08:00They could take confidence from the fact they'd already beaten Mansfield in the EFL Trophy this season

01:08:05But another shock looked unlikely when the home side took the lead after just four minutes

01:08:10Regan Hendry slotting home Stephen McLaughlin's cross

01:08:14But Harrogate Towns stayed in the game and midway through the second half a ball over the top put Jack Muldoon in space

01:08:20He held it up well before assistance arrived and he set it up for Stephen Duke McKenna to do the rest

01:08:26Stagg's substitute George Marris put them back in the lead his 20-yard shot taking a wicked deflection and looping over the head of the Harrogate keeper

01:08:35Again the League Two side came back Anthony O'Connor heading home from a Reece Smith corner

01:08:41But three minutes later the decisive goal Marris with his second of the game taking Nigel Clough's side through

01:08:47Look at the numbers and Chesterfield had one of the toughest tasks in the first round away at Stevenage

01:08:59Unbeaten at home in the league above them and yet Dan Sweeney's act of passing charity gave the spy rights the break they needed

01:09:06From that mistake they won a penalty and from that penalty Lee bonus put the League Two side in front

01:09:11Chesterfield like Stevenage have hopes of promotion fuelled by talent such as Dylan Markande who so nearly made it two

01:09:20Either way Chesterfield are into the second round for the fifth season in a row

01:09:28Tranmere Rovers had won their last two games against Stockport County in all competitions scoring six and conceding none

01:09:34But the dynamic League One leaders went ahead at Prenton Park Jack Diamond with a sparkling run and shot in front of a big travelling contingent behind the Tranmere goal

01:09:45There was a touch of good fortune about the home side's equaliser

01:09:48Amari Patrick's goal bound effort took a big deflection to bring his side level

01:09:53Ollie Norwood put the League One team back in front with a smart free kick

01:09:57Reviving memories of his days in the Premier League with Sheffield United

01:09:59The Hatters put the game beyond any doubt when Nathan Lowe lobbed the keeper and bamboozled the scrambling defender

01:10:06Stockport County might just be good value for a decent run in this year's competition

01:10:13This was the first meeting in the FA Cup between these two sides and one that Graham Alexander and his side would like to forget

01:10:20The decisive moment in the game came just two minutes in

01:10:23A free kick for the home side

01:10:24The shrill sound of the whistle saw many of the players stop

01:10:28But not Isaac Hutchinson who headed in

01:10:31There was consternation among the Bradford players

01:10:33And even the Cheltenham manager Steve Cottle said after the game he could understand their frustration

01:10:38So much for playing to the referee's whistle

01:10:43Bradford threw everything including their goalkeeper at Cheltenham

01:10:46But couldn't find an equaliser

01:10:47Crew Alexandra might well have been anticipating a minor upset against Doncaster Rovers in this their first FA Cup meeting in over half a century

01:10:59Hopes were even higher when skipper Mickey Dimitriou put them in front with an excellent long-range strike just before half-time

01:11:05There's no truth in the suggestion

01:11:12Doncaster striker Billy Sharp featured when these two last met in the 1970-71 season

01:11:17But the striker who seems to have been around forever

01:11:20Knocks the latest FA Cup goal of his long and illustrious career to bring Rovers level

01:11:24Then in stoppage time a late, late winner for the visitors

01:11:28Mellon kills a lovely ball and goal

01:11:32Terrific ball for Owen Bailey the captain of the Doncaster Rovers

01:11:37And he's more or less won the tie now

01:11:40At the start of this season Oldham's well-travelled manager Mickey Mellon signed a striker he knew well on loan from Burnley

01:11:49He happened to be his son

01:11:51But if there were any accusations of favouritism

01:11:52Michael Mellon was about to turn all that on its head spectacularly

01:11:57Mellon with a peach to put Oldham in front against League One Northampton Town

01:12:02And just a minute later he was in again to score again

01:12:06The Latics had been in uninspiring form in the league but here everything bore fruit

01:12:11And Michael Mellon into an empty net

01:12:17Michael Mellon's hat-trick, Oldham 3, Northampton Town 0

01:12:22Northampton had been bystanders but then they hadn't won a first round tie in six years

01:12:27And Cameron McEhan's goal wasn't going to change that

01:12:30Oldham and the Mellons march on

01:12:32In fact there's a brilliant quote from Mickey Mellon I want to read out to you

01:12:38He said, take the dad part out of it, take the guy who loves football out of it

01:12:42You want to watch football for these moments and these types of goals live

01:12:45And anyone who gets the opportunity to see it back

01:12:47I think you want to watch it over and over and over again

01:12:50The way he's executed his top draw

01:12:52Lovely words from Dad

01:12:54Yeah, exactly

01:12:56And that's, you know, even though he said, you know, I'll take that apart

01:13:01He's proud, he's very, very proud that his son's played as well as that

01:13:05Scored goals with quality like that as well

01:13:08I mean the first one, Dan, I'd have brought me back

01:13:11Unbelievable, if you look at him in here and he's, at this point, an overhead kick's not in his mind

01:13:15It's an instinctive finish but he spins and that's unbelievable

01:13:18Really, really is a great finish

01:13:20Wonderful technique, isn't it?

01:13:21Yes, fantastic

01:13:23Yeah, the hard thing about the overhead kick is his preparation

01:13:26Again, look at him, he's just, you know, he's on the go

01:13:28He's thinking, that might just go into that area

01:13:30Again, instinctive, he just lifts it over for the keeper

01:13:33Which is possibly the hardest finish he could have, could have gone for

01:13:36This one, keeper's in no man's land, but, you know, you deserve that

01:13:39When you've scored the first two goals, you deserve that little bit of fortune

01:13:42He's gone for the all three there as well, look

01:13:44Yeah, just let him ever be, no, that's it, that's his third and quite rightly so

01:13:46Lovely stuff, lovely

01:13:48What a proud moment for the Melons as well

01:13:49Yeah, very, very, I'm pleased for them, I really am

01:13:53And I'm pleased for Mickie as well, you know, he deserves a little bit of a smile on his face for the weekend

01:13:57Well done

01:13:58Yeah, how far can he go do you think?

01:13:59I think he can, you know, obviously, if you're scoring goals like that and you've got someone who can score that kind of goals, you can go a bit further

01:14:07Well done lads, thank you

01:14:09Right, two big name managers went head to head on Friday night

01:14:12New Luton Town boss Jack Wilshere, he enjoyed his first league win in senior management last weekend

01:14:16Whilst Robbie Savage made the move to National League Forest Green Rovers in the summer

01:14:21Commentary from Cameron Pope

01:14:27They've done it before, can they do so again?

01:14:30Forest Green Rovers looking to dish out a fright tonight on Halloween

01:14:34Welles

01:14:35Now then

01:14:37With a cutback for Faner

01:14:39And Luton Town lead

01:14:41It's Lamine Faner with the goal

01:14:44Kengli couldn't get the ball clear and then came the rapid wells

01:14:47It's a brilliant finish from Lamine Faner

01:14:54It's coming Bramall

01:14:56Saved by Targel

01:14:57Oh he strikes it

01:14:58And McKee Wells has scored

01:15:00A moment to forget

01:15:02For Fia Klagel

01:15:04And it's a long way back already for the National League side

01:15:10One back by Jones

01:15:12Pemberton lost it

01:15:16Couldn't find a way through it

01:15:17Might fall for Faner again

01:15:20And another

01:15:22For McKee Wells

01:15:24A shake of the head from Robbie Savage

01:15:26And a mess of Forest Green Rovers' own making

01:15:30Given away by Trey Pemberton

01:15:32And it falls slightly fortunately into the path for Faner

01:15:36He couldn't put it home

01:15:38And McKee Wells could

01:15:41But Yabu

01:15:45Options in the middle for Forest Green

01:15:47Oh, might not need them

01:15:49Oh, it's in

01:15:51And maybe there is life in them after all

01:15:56He had a lot to do from there

01:15:58Turned inside Lombeke

01:15:59And bang!

01:16:01Stick it!

01:16:02Help him!

01:16:05Fourteen was for McAllister

01:16:07Oh, now look at this then

01:16:08Whitwell

01:16:10He's in behind

01:16:12Penalty

01:16:14And he's there, Forest Green is ticking back into this cup tie

01:16:18What a lifeline

01:16:22Kyle McAllister

01:16:25Scores!

01:16:273-2

01:16:29This is what the Cubs all about

01:16:31You thought they were out of it

01:16:33McAllister right in the corner

01:16:37Pemberton's pass

01:16:38Daesh trying to hold it up for McAllister

01:16:41He's got it back

01:16:43It's Aidan Daesh

01:16:45Looking for Whitwell

01:16:47But a little bit too wide

01:16:49Found the cross anyway

01:16:51Nobody can put it home

01:16:53But Daesh is there!

01:16:55And Forest Green Rovers

01:16:58From 3-0 down

01:17:00Have got themselves back to three goals apiece

01:17:04And what a moment for Aidan Daesh as well

01:17:06Three hundred travelling support is expected

01:17:12Oh!

01:17:14Six inches of steel work away from FA Cup Magic

01:17:18He mainly thought he'd scored

01:17:22Now Luton coming alive again

01:17:26Savile forward this time

01:17:28Korya

01:17:30Yates

01:17:31Gideon Korya

01:17:33And Luton are back on track

01:17:34It took them until added time

01:17:38But this fight that they've been in

01:17:40It might just come to a happy ending for Jack Wilshere

01:17:44Just seem to find their feet at the right side

01:17:47But you have to say

01:17:49It's crawled on Forest Green

01:17:51In it goes from McAllister

01:17:54Surely now the final chance

01:17:56It's Daesh!

01:17:57Oh!

01:17:58He's put it wide!

01:18:00Into the right area

01:18:02And it was on a plate

01:18:04And Aidan Daesh

01:18:06How we will wish he could have that again

01:18:08How his manager will wish he could have that again

01:18:11Happy to be through

01:18:13And credit to Forest Green Rovers

01:18:14What they were excellent

01:18:15Their attitude was excellent

01:18:16They never gave up

01:18:17Before they liked Robbie

01:18:18And they showed that

01:18:19So credit to them

01:18:20They encapsulate what I do

01:18:21I'm proud of them

01:18:22They work hard

01:18:23They run hard

01:18:24They're in it together

01:18:25Listen it was a bit emotional after the game

01:18:27Knowing how much they give

01:18:28And see Aidan Daesh coming on scoring a goal

01:18:29Missing that chance at the end

01:18:30He was in tears

01:18:31And made me emotional

01:18:33Because that's what they want

01:18:34They want to do it for me

01:18:35And for the football club

01:18:36We've put a show on to everybody tonight

01:18:39To see what team spirit

01:18:40What togetherness we have

01:18:41And a team that fight for me

01:18:44Well well done to Robbie

01:18:45And to Jack

01:18:46Because Danny

01:18:47What a cracking cup tie that is

01:18:49That's FA Cup

01:18:50That is exactly what you want to see

01:18:52The spirit

01:18:53Robbie mentioned it

01:18:54But the spirit from Forest Green

01:18:55To come back

01:18:56From 3-0 down

01:18:57Where you'd feel

01:18:58Okay we're playing against a League One team

01:18:59Looting

01:19:00Just been relegated from the Championship

01:19:02You could just fold

01:19:04But they didn't

01:19:05They came forward

01:19:06They showed a lot of character

01:19:07And you know

01:19:08It's moments like this

01:19:09That can pick up the whole team

01:19:11And it was Tom Knowles

01:19:12Who you know

01:19:13He picks up the ball here

01:19:14Didn't really have a right to score

01:19:15But he's determined

01:19:16And that execution is brilliant

01:19:18Dion isn't it?

01:19:19Yeah it is

01:19:20He's going nowhere

01:19:21He should never even get anywhere

01:19:22Near on his right peg

01:19:24He just fumbles his way through

01:19:25He gets a deflection as well

01:19:27I mean

01:19:28Daesh here

01:19:29Just getting himself into good position

01:19:32Just floating around

01:19:33Where he's hoping the ball might land

01:19:34His mirroring is always on

01:19:36Looking to try and get any bits and bobs

01:19:38And he just

01:19:39Again he fumbles it in

01:19:41But the spirit

01:19:42Of Robbie Savage

01:19:43And the effort

01:19:44And you know

01:19:45The grit

01:19:46And the work rate

01:19:47Comes from the manager

01:19:48And they get themselves back in it

01:19:50Yep absolutely

01:19:51And Jack Wilshere

01:19:52Won the FA Cup twice

01:19:53As a player with Arsenal

01:19:54In 2014

01:19:55And 2015

01:19:56Let's also talk about

01:19:58Aidan Daesh

01:19:59Because that miss

01:20:00He will be

01:20:01Thinking about this

01:20:03Forever

01:20:04It's a moment

01:20:05That you dream for

01:20:06As it lands to you

01:20:07You're thinking

01:20:08Yes this is my moment

01:20:09You've already had a

01:20:10You know you've come back

01:20:11You've gone 4-3 down

01:20:12And then you see it

01:20:14Probably saying everyone get up

01:20:15Just get in the box

01:20:16Everybody

01:20:17You know a chance could come

01:20:18And here it is

01:20:19And you don't make connection with it

01:20:20And the feeling

01:20:21Is awful

01:20:22You can see it

01:20:23You can feel it

01:20:24The fact that he's wounded

01:20:25It's your big moment

01:20:26Your big chance

01:20:27And after scoring

01:20:28He'd have been confident

01:20:29And he doesn't quite make it

01:20:30And there you go

01:20:31You know what

01:20:32In that moment

01:20:34He's thinking

01:20:35Just hit the target

01:20:36He's actually concentrating too much

01:20:38Too much

01:20:39He's gone with the side foot

01:20:40Myself and Danny

01:20:41Would have gone laces

01:20:42Would have just gone laces

01:20:43Just put your foot through it

01:20:44Lots of power

01:20:45He's trying to be too careful

01:20:46And he gets it wrong

01:20:47And he'll be

01:20:49He'll be thinking about it now

01:20:51And tomorrow

01:20:52And the next day

01:20:53I'm just thinking

01:20:54When I see Robbie there

01:20:55And obviously

01:20:56We've all worked with Robbie

01:20:57When he's standing there

01:20:58At the touchline

01:20:59Obviously very proud of his team

01:21:00Whether he's thinking

01:21:01Goodness me

01:21:02It's easier doing the punditry you know

01:21:04It's less stressful

01:21:05Doing the punditry

01:21:06Or doing Radio 5 Live

01:21:08That's for sure

01:21:09But in terms of Jack Wilshire

01:21:10Potential to be a cracking manager as well

01:21:12Yeah he's new to the job

01:21:13But he's gone away

01:21:14And done his yards

01:21:15In the under-21s

01:21:16You know

01:21:17Age groups and so on

01:21:18And he's serious about it

01:21:19You can see that

01:21:20And his team

01:21:21His team are now putting

01:21:22A good bit of form together

01:21:23And they're responding to him

01:21:24Yeah well they've won

01:21:25Three of their four games

01:21:26Under Jack

01:21:27Thank you very much

01:21:28Right let's finish

01:21:29With the rest of Saturday's

01:21:30All Football League ties

01:21:31Starting with Huddersfield's

01:21:32Trip to Bolton

01:21:33Two former FA Cup winners and two teams who'd rather not be starting this early

01:21:42Bolton in particular have a poor recent record in the first round

01:21:45But they were given enough time and space for Ibrahim Sissoko to think

01:21:49Play an accidental 1-2 with a defender and score his first goal for the club

01:21:54That lead stayed intact until just after the hour mark when Ruben Roskens cross tempted Bolton keeper Tyler Miller to wander allowing Bojan Radulovic to equalise

01:22:05In the league game last month Bolton snatched it right at the end this time they made sure earlier Richard Taylor like Sissoko scoring his first Wanderers goal his proved to be the winner

01:22:17Cardiff City travelled to Peterborough United fresh from reaching the quarterfinals of the EFL Cup in midweek

01:22:27They hadn't been beaten in the first round of the FA Cup since 1994

01:22:31Peterborough took the lead when Jimmy J Morgan in space found Harry Lennard who produced a crisp finish

01:22:37Cardiff had plenty of the ball but rarely tested Posh

01:22:40Desperate for an equaliser keeper Nathan Trott was pushed forward

01:22:44And bizarrely even engineered a rare attempt on the Peterborough goal with a final action of the match

01:22:49This though was a sweet victory for Peterborough manager Luke Williams in his first match in charge

01:22:57With neither side flying in the league you might have expected this to be a bit closer

01:23:01But it was a dominant win for Wickham with 20 shots to Plymouth 4 over the course of the game

01:23:06The only surprise was that they had to wait till midway through the second half to finally break the deadlock

01:23:11A clumsy challenge, a penalty given and Corley Woodrow calmly converted it

01:23:16They didn't have to wait too long to double the score

01:23:19That old adage of if at first you don't succeed try try again worked out

01:23:23Woodrow eventually getting his second as the ball squirmed under the keeper

01:23:27Though they had Connor Taylor sent off from the dying minutes this was very much Wickham's day

01:23:32It's fair to say the regulars at Hayes Lane won't have seen Bromley win at home in the FA Cup proper

01:23:40The last time they did it was 1938

01:23:43And Bristol Rovers were intent on further denying them the pleasure

01:23:47Swiss forward Fabrizio Cavain worked an angle magnificently

01:23:51Just three minutes later Rovers were in a game

01:23:55This time Cavain signed from Vaduz in Liechtenstein spotted Joel Cottrell

01:24:00And he made it too in the 79th minute

01:24:03It seemed that would be that

01:24:06But Bromley had a late tilt against their unfortunate history

01:24:09Jamiya Umolu squeezed a goal back

01:24:12Seven minutes of the 90 to go

01:24:14Game back on

01:24:15Into stoppage time

01:24:17Bromley free kick

01:24:18And another header from Omar Sawunmi

01:24:21Seem to have taken this to extra time

01:24:23But no

01:24:24Foul given

01:24:25Bromley furious

01:24:26Their unhappy home cup run goes on

01:24:33Promotion chasing Milton Keynes Doms manager Paul Warne brought his side to Colchester United

01:24:38Looking to continue some of that hungry warrior spirit that has taken them to 4th in League 2

01:24:43But it was Colchester who took a 26 minute lead

01:24:46When Micah Mbick spotted keeper Conal Truman coming off his line

01:24:50And found the net from 30 yards

01:24:52MK Doms equalised when Aaron Namani's pass found Roushian Hepburn Murphy

01:24:57And his shot deflected in off goalkeeper Matt Mason

01:25:01Colchester no respecters of reputation restored their lead

01:25:05Harry Anderson the provider for Mbick's opener

01:25:08With a strictly footwork and finish for 2-1

01:25:11Hepburn Murphy was at it again for the Doms

01:25:14Neatly collecting Nathaniel Mendez Lang's pass

01:25:17And finishing smartly

01:25:18This was the first ever FA Cup meeting between these League 2 rivals

01:25:22And on a day for sharpshooters Joe Tomlinson grabbed the winner three minutes from time

01:25:27To make light of having twice been behind

01:25:29Sitting 10th and 12th in the League there's not much between these sides

01:25:37So maybe it wasn't surprising some quite special goals were needed to separate them

01:25:41Fleetwood's opener from Zek Medley was good

01:25:44Their second late in the second half was really good

01:25:49A thumping volley from Harrison Holgate

01:25:52Barnett's goal a minute from time was probably the best of the lot

01:25:56Callumstead's curling shot into the top corner

01:25:59It made for a nervy end to the game

01:26:01But the Cod army march on

01:26:03Rodney parade has been a gloomy place of late

01:26:09Newport County bottom of League 2 without a home win since March

01:26:13So when Gillingham chasing promotion in the same division

01:26:16Took the lead through Elliot Nevitt

01:26:18A dark deja vu could have set in

01:26:20And yet later in the half a Newport corner caused sufficient confusion

01:26:25To give Cameron Evans the space he needed to equalise

01:26:28The Jills are having a dip themselves recently

01:26:31And in extra time County pounced

01:26:34Cameron Antwi's strike seemed to have given them the win they'd long waited for

01:26:38But with Newport just now there's always time for something to go wrong

01:26:42Their former lone striker Cameron Palmer Holden smashed Gillingham level

01:26:46In the final minutes of extra time

01:26:48And so to penalties where the Jills ran out of puff

01:26:51Romeo Hutton and then Sam Vokes missed

01:26:54Giving Ben Lloyd the chance to send Newport through

01:26:57This was the kind of night they have so sorely needed

01:27:01And big thanks to Damian Johnson, Tania Arnold and Patrick Geary

01:27:48Colin Addison who's passed away at the age of 85

01:27:51Colin managed here for United to that famous FA Cup win over Newcastle United in 1972

01:27:57Also led the Bulls into the Football League for the first time in the club's history

01:28:01The thoughts of everyone at BBC Sport are with Colin's friends and family

01:28:07A wonderful man

01:28:11I worked with him at Merthyr Tiddeville Football Club

01:28:13And I watched his Newport County side in the early 80s

01:28:16A real football man with a brilliant football incentive
