Success in shoot-out for Mangotsfield United
Mangotsfield 1 Truro City 1: AET Mangotsfield win 4-3 on pens: Mangotsfield United claimed a dramatic shoot-out win to set up a home tie with Blue Square Premier side Forest Green in the fourth qualifying round of the FA Cup.
Forest Green will visit Cossham Street on October 24 after goalkeeper Tony Court's penalty saves sent Mangotsfield through.
Court denied Truro's Barry McConnell and Lee Hodges in the penalty shoot-out, with Neil Arndale missing his spot-kick for Mangotsfield.
Tom Knighton, Carl Tooze, Jack Allward and Jason Wood were all on target from the spot as the hosts came out on top.
Earlier, Truro took the lead through McConnell's 69th-minute header.
Mangotsfield equalised in the 80th minute when substitute Jason Wood crossed for Knighton to score, after which the scorer was unlucky to see two efforts hit the woodwork.
Knighton and Page both also went close to breaking the deadlock in extra-time.
