Dan Sweeney needs treatment on a bloodied nose after an aerial challenge by Ryan Taylor, but the contact looks accidental.

Sweeney is fine to carry on.

That sums his evening up, you can never fault Padraig Amond for effort, his determination, but he just doesn’t look comfortable.

He’s just lacking confidence in front of goal.

Former Newport striker Jamille Matt enters the fray for Forest Green, while defender Priestley Farquharson is on for Newport.

Forest Green keeper Luke McGee makes a horrible mess of a kick which goes straight to Padraig Amond.

The Newport striker tries to loft the ball into the empty net but it just drifts too high.

There have not been many fierce challenges in this game, but that is a heavy one from Scott Wagstaff on Mickey Demetriou.

He gets the ball but was off the ground and is fortunate not to receive a card.

Tom King paws out another cross and once again the Newport keeper does enough.

The ball does drop to Odin Bailey, but his long-range effort is tame.

Forest Green are fighting hard having gone 2-0 down.

The Nailsworth side are enjoying their best spell of the game.

What they need now is a goal to bring them back into the tie.

Forest Green really ought to have a goal back as Liam Shephard gives the ball away on the edge of his own box.

Aaron Collins feeds Odin Bailey but Tom King races out to block his shot.

Newport eventually clear after a spell of Forest Green pressure.

Mike Flynn's team have been a tough nut to crack in recent weeks and they are standing strong for the moment.

Nicky Cadden's first contribution is a dangerous low cross which Scot Bennett clears.

Forest Green need some inspiration from their substitutes.

In fact it is Newport who make the first substitution of the night.

Lewis Collins, who may have picked up a knock either while scoring the goal or celebrating, is replaced by Ryan Taylor.

Forest Green send on Dan Sweeney and Nicky Cadden.

Aaron Collins misses a golden chance for Forest Green.

Sixty seconds later his younger brother puts Newport 2-0 up.

Football, eh?

Not surprisingly, Forest Green boss Jimmy Ball has a pained expression in the away dugout.

Surely changes are coming for the visitors.

Collins gets there, he’s still got loads to do.

He’s got a decision to make and he makes the right decision and slots it past the goalkeeper.

What a moment that was for Lewis Collins.

He only turned 20 earlier this month and had just two senior goals to his name before tonight.

Tom King punches an Aaron Collins to the edge of the box where it falls to that man Dom Bernard once again, but his shot is miscued.

Forest Green work another opportunity to get the ball into the box and Collins heads across the face at the near post. That was an opportunity.

Padraig Amond does well to chase a long ball and win his team a throw.

Newport's frontmen have worked hard tonight.

Newport's Scot Bennett needs treatment on his wrist, but he is strapped up and looks okay to continue.

A lovely passing move from Forest Green ends with Scott Wagstaff pulling the ball back for Dom Bernard.

But a crucial recovery challenge is just enough to deny Bernard a big chance.
