Despite dominating for a large majority of this cup tie and creating numerous chances Mangotsfield United face a replay on tonight after conceding two late goals.
Gillingham Town playing at home took a shock lead against the run of play midway through the half before NEIL ARNDALE levelled with a spot kick minutes later. With six minutes of the first half remaining Mangotsfield were gifted a goal when James Manley headed into his own net for an OG. The match looked to have been put beyond the home side when MITCHELL PAGE headed home from close range nine minutes after the restart, however two goals in the final ten minutes earned Gillingham Town an unlikely replay with both teams entering yesterday's third qualifying round draw.
Mangotsfield: Court, Arndale, Smith, Pilling, Trought, Scott, Tooze, Bater (Knapman), Page, Knighton (O'Connor), Spill.
Subs not used: Prosser, Bennett, Wood
Attendance: 505
The winners of the replay have been drawn away against Zamaretto League Premier Division Truro City. The tie will be played on Saturday 10th October.
