Yeovil Town came through a replay against a determined Leatherhead side to book their spot in the FA Cup First Round Proper.

Having fallen behind to the non-league side inside 90 seconds, the Glovers rallied and a double from Slavi Spasov and one from Ryan Jones established a 3-1 lead at half-time.

Charlie Kennett was then sent off for a late tackle on Jack Kingdon, before Charlie Lennon extended the lead to 4-1 on 58 minutes, the contest appeared settled.

Leatherhead showed tremendous character and reduced the deficit through Connor Harris with 14 minutes left on the clock, before Lennon put the result beyond doubt, converting a delightful delivery from Glovers' youngster Liam Nardiello with four minutes remaining.

Yeovil Town will be away to League Two Chesterfield in the first round, which Billy Rowley's side are back in after successive exits to lower league opposition
