Northern Premier League Premier Division club Stockton Town knocked out Scarborough Athletic with a 3-1 victory.
Stockton were ahead on 36 minutes, an inch-perfect free-kick from Glen Butterworth went across the face of goal which Michael Sweet did brilliantly to fire home at the back post.
Dom Tear got Scarborough level just before the break, however, Stockton were back in front on 58 minutes, Stephen Thompson unleashed Michael Fowler through on goal, his shot was saved but Michael Sweet was quickest to react to poke home to re-take the lead.
It was then 3-1 to the hosts, Michael Sweet made his way down the right-wing, his cut back evaded Michael Fowler but eventually ended up with Kevin Hayes who slotted into the bottom corner for his first goal of the season.
Southern League Division One Central club Hadley managed to knock out AFC Telford United, George Alfieri with a great strike on 26 minutes.
Isthmian League North Division side Brentwood Town knocked out two leagues above Hereford, when Marlon Agyakwa fired across the box and Benas Vaivada tapped in at the back post into an empty net on the 82nd minute.
