Aveley win 4-1 against Horsham YMCA to set up big tie against Conference South side Havant and Waterlooville.

The first chance of the match fell to the visitors, the ball fell to Ash Dugdale in the box but his shot was high and wide and didn't trouble James Marrable.

Sam Schaaf should've opened the scoring as he's was one on one with Marrable, but the keeper was on hand to deny the front man.

Millers started to grab the game by the scruff of the neck. A ball into the near post was met with the head of Billy Holland but it was straight into the arms of Mark Fox.

Fox soon after denied the Millers for a second time as James Peagram's shot was pushed away after the striker opted to go alone.

On the Millers next attack they were awarded a penalty kick. Fantastic dogged work from Liam Nash kept the ball in, Billy Holland crossed and it met the hand of Evans. Lee Prescott stepped up and fired home past the keeper. Aveley 1-0 Horsham YMCA.

The lead was doubled three minutes before half time. Again Lee Prescott the man who scored, in truly brilliant fashion. From the far side touch line he curled the ball superbly over the keepers head into the top corner. Aveley 2-0 Horsham YMCA.

Half Time- Aveley 2-0 Horsham YMCA.

It was a familiar scoreline with it matching Saturday's half time score. On Saturday the Millers were comfortable and cruising to the next round.

Aveley had the first chance of the half. A poor clearance from Mark Fox was straight at Liam Nash, Fox redeemed himself as he saved from Nash's snapshot.

With the chances the visitors had they really should've scored to make the game more competitive. Schaaf broke the offside trap, was one on one with James Marrable again, but James saved well to deny the striker for the third time during the match.

The miss proved to be a costly one. Lee Prescott drifted in a corner and Steve Willis met it with a bullet header to end the contest and looked to send the Millers through. Aveley 3-0 Horsham YMCA.

The Millers continued to press for another goal, James Peagram cut in on his right foot, but saw his shot hit the outside of the post.

The game went into injury time and the visitors managed to get their deserved goal. It was another corner, Dean Wright beat Spencer Harrison to the ball and flicked it into the front post past James Marrable. Aveley 3-1 Horsham YMCA.

There was to be one last goal in the match as we ticked over five minutes of the additional time. A shot from Liam Nash was saved, it reached Lee Prescott who from 8 yards slammed home to get his hat-trick, and Aveley's fourth.
