Hanworth Villa twice came from behind to beat Littlehampton Town with the winner scored seven minutes into stoppage time and the game’s end marred by appalling behaviour from the visiting fans who claimed it was a feud dating back ten years.
United’s Kameron Campbell had an early penalty saved – although he did net the rebound and another goal – and was sent off seven minutes from time, while Villa’s Sam Merson was twice denied from 12 yards, once in the match and then in the penalty shoot-out.
Sixteen fourth round ties are set to take place this weekend and the remaining clubs head into those games knowing what prize is on offer for the winners.
It was appropriate for Wayne Hatswell to announce he was hanging up his boots on FA Cup first round weekend, exactly 12 years after his name first came to prominence on Match of the Day.
