    Gainsborough Trinity 0-0 Accrington

    There is a great atmosphere inside the Northolme tonight and the Gainsborough fans have a drum which is adding to the noise inside the ground.

    The stands are packed and some areas around the pitch have just a fence or terraces which has rows of people leaning over to get a glimpse of the action.

    Let's hope for a good game!

    Right then, onto our final FA Cup match of the day!

    Gainsborough Trinity and Accrington Stanley have never previously met in the FA Cup proper.

    As a football league club, League Two side Accrington have progressed from six of their seven ties against non-league opponents in the FA Cup, failing only in 2017-18 in the first round versus Guiseley.

    Northern Premier League Premier Division outfit Gainsborough reached the FA Cup second round last season, eliminating Hednesford Town. They last progressed beyond the first round in consecutive seasons in 1937-38 and 1938-39.

    Accrington are looking to go beyond the first round of the FA Cup in consecutive seasons for the first time since a run of three in a row between 2014-15 and 2016-17.

  5. Tougher tests to come for Valepublished at 17:06 GMT

    FT: Port Vale 5-1 Maldon & Tiptree

    Adam Yates
    Former Vale defender on BBC Radio Stoke

    It was a canter in the second half, wasn't it? Other than their goal, I'm not sure they [Maldon & Tiptree] even had another half chance.

    One [goal] disallowed right at the death which I can't believe. It can only be for offside which I would be gobsmacked if it is because Jesse Debrah looked like he was on the six-yard box from that corner kick but a positive afternoon.

    A sloppy start, positive response, food for thought for the manager and Vale back to winning ways but the opposition were not EFL standard and there'll be far tougher tests that Vale have to come up against in the next six, seven months.

  6. FULL-TIMEpublished at 16:59 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    Full-time and Maldon and Tiptree's 2025-26 FA Cup journey comes to an end!

    Kevin Horlock will be proud of his side and will never forget his team taking the lead in the sixth minute when Anisius Lewis wonderfully volleyed home as the away fans went wild.

    That woke Vale up effectively and an incredible four goals in nine minutes took the tie away from the visiting side.

    Goals from George Hall, Devante Cole and a brace from Ruari Paton saw them go 4-1 up at the break before Cole grabbed a second of the match after half-time.

    Jesse Debrah thought he rounded off the win with the final act but his header was disallowed in the 98th minute.

    The Essex club overcame six opponents to get to this stage but they have finally been knocked out by a strong showing from the League One club.

  7. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 16:58 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    Vale think they have a sixth goal as Jesse Debrah heads home from a corner but the referee has spotted a foul!

  8. Maldon can be proudpublished at 16:56 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon & Tiptree

    BBC Final Score at Vale Park

    The sun’s gone down, I’ve switched from shades to glasses and put my gloves on.

    Maldon & Tiptree have finally managed a couple of efforts on goal in this second half but the contest is done and we’re in the dying light of their FA Cup run now.

    Waltham Abbey are next up for The Jammers, the fresh legs from Kevin Horlock may be with next Saturday in mind.

    They can be proud of where they’ve got to but attention will soon turn to displacing Felixstowe & Walton at the top of the Isthmian League North.

  9. CLOSE!published at 16:53 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    Ruari Paton is still determined to claim a hat-trick and, from a tight angle, he hits a shot which hits the side netting.

    The goal collapses and literally breaks the goal which means a couple of groundsmen have come on to fix it.

    Inevitably, that has led the Vale fans behind the goal to sing "you don't know what you're doing" and "you're getting sacked in the morning" towards them.

  10. ADDITIONAL TIMEpublished at 16:50 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    Freddie Sears flashes a ball across the face of the area but it's too quick for anyone to react.

    Meanwhile, following a lot of substitutions in the second-half, the fourth official says we will have seven minutes of additional time to complete this match.

    .... Which comes to nothing in the end.

  12. Postpublished at 16:48 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    Maldon and Tiptree have worked their socks off but it is Ruari Patton who is down with cramp at the moment.

    Vale have themselves a late corner in the 90th minute.

  13. Faal has to head itpublished at 16:47 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon & Tiptree

    Adam Yates
    Former Vale defender on BBC Radio Stoke

    He's got to head it. He's in the six-yard box, it's a cross by George Hall but brilliant play from Rhys Walters.

    He just drives through and goes through the gears up the field and slides it to George Hall but Faal has to just head that. I think he's tried to hit it with his laces right underneath it.

    That's the type of ball he would've been desperate to have heading into the afternoon.

  14. CHANCEpublished at 16:44 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    Great opportunity for Port Vale's sixth goal.

    A lovely centre finds Mo Faal but he is caught underneath the cross and is unable to volley home from four yards out.

    He can't quite believe he's missed that.

  15. Postpublished at 16:40 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    Oh good opportunity for the visitors to get a second!

    The ball is worked well inside to Courtney Senior but the winger, on his weaker left foot, shoots well over from just outside the box.

    That was a presentable opportunity for Maldon and Tiptree.

  16. Pace and power troubling Maltonpublished at 16:39 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon & Tiptree

    Adam Yates
    Former Vale defender on BBC Radio Stoke

    You have to be mobile when you're coming up against EFL footballers and I think that's where they've [Malton & Tiptree} struggled.

    Obviously, they got that goal early on but they've struggled to cope with the pace and power and movement of these Vale players. You couple that with the ruthless finishing we've seen this afternoon and Vale could've had at least another three or four goals.

  17. Postpublished at 16:38 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    Maldon and Tiptree striker Freddie Sears has an opportunity and looks to work it on to his left foot but his strike is well blocked and the ball goes out for a throw in to the visitors.

  18. Postpublished at 16:36 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    The game is gone for the visitors but they are still giving their all for the 283 travelling fans that have made the trip from Essex today.

    Kevin Horlock will be proud of his side's effort no matter what the scoreline will end up as.

  19. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:34 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    Vale sub Dajaune Brown is slipped through in on goal but goes down in the box following a challenge from behind.

    Brown is booked for simulation when he thinks the referee is going to point to the spot - replays suggest he might have been hard done by there.

  20. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:29 GMT

    Port Vale 5-1 Maldon and Tiptree

    The seven substitutions over the past few minutes have disrupted Vale's flow somewhat and that has helped Maldon and Tiptree.

    Meanwhile, Dylan Williams has received a yellow card for a foul in midfield and he is instantly withdrawn by head coach Kevin Horlock. Mohammed Amir is on for him.
