FA Cup: Westfields lose at Curzon Ashton, Stourbridge beat Whitehawk

Ninth-tier Westfields' FA Cup run ended in a 3-1 loss at Curzon Ashton on Monday, as Stourbridge saw off Whitehawk 3-0.

Westfields were the lowest-ranked side left in the competition but were beaten in their first-round replay at the Tameside Stadium.

The Hereford club play in the Midland Football League but they were outclassed by their opponents from the National League North, three tiers higher in the pyramid.

Adam Morgan's double put Curzon in command and Niall Cummins scored a third. Nick Harrhy added a late consolation for Westfields, who were nine minutes away from winning the first game but drew 1-1.

Curzon will now host either AFC Wimbledon or Bury in round two.

FA Cup second round draw

Bolton v Sheffield United the pick of the ties in first weekend of December

Stourbridge will play League One side Northampton for a place in the third round after they beat Whitehawk 3-0 at the War Memorial Athletic Ground.

Whitehawk play in National League South, one division above Northern Premier League side Stourbridge, but failed to make their superior status count.

Chris Lait gave Stourbridge the lead soon after half-time before two goals from Luke Benbow sealed a surprise win.

Whitehawk's disappointment will be compounded by the controversy at the end of the first tie, which saw Javier Favarel's goal ruled out by the referee blowing for full-time.

Stourbridge go through to a home tie against Northampton, who sit eighth in League One, on the weekend of December 2-4.
