      Non-league club progress to round three of FA Cup

      Non-league club Kettering Town shocked League Two side Notts County 2-1 to progress to round three of the FA Cup. Goals from Gareth Seddon and Brett Solkhon handed Kettering victory in the replay at Rockingham Road to set up a clash versus Eastwood Town. Alfie Potter, one Havant & Waterlooville's FA Cup heroes last season, set the tone for the hosts in the first half, rifling a stinging shot just over. And Craig Westcarr, once of Nottingham Forest, had a glorious chance to break the deadlock but fired straight at Magpies keeper Russell Hoult from close range. But two minutes before the break Jay Smith's thumping 20-yard shot flew past Poppies keeper Lee Harper and in off the underside of the bar. The visitors refused to roll over though and were level after eight second-half minutes when Solkhon powered his header past Hoult. And 60 seconds later, Kettering were ahead when Seddon ran on to Westcarr's first-time lay-off and drilled the ball past Hoult into the bottom right-hand corner. Only a full-stretch Hoult save from substitute Iyseden Christie prevented the Poppies from extending their lead as Kettering held on to reach the third round for the first time in 17 years.
