FA Cup 2nd Qualifying : Banbury United 2 Shildon 3

Shildon are just 90mins away from the 1st Round of the FA Cup after a stunning performance against Banbury United

The hosts took the lead when Tom Winters fired into the top corner from the edge of the box. Adam Burnicle equalised to send the teams into halftime 1-1.

In the second half Player/Manager, Daniel Moore headed into the net and Burnicle grabbed his second to put Shildon 3-1 up.  Ricky Johnson then pulled a goal back heading in from a Tom Winters cross to make it a nervy last 10 minutes as the home side pressed, but excellent defending by Dan Groves & Dominic Curl who both cleared efforts off the line sent Shildon through.

The draw will be made live on Talksport 2 on Monday at 1pm.
