League Two Barnet booked a fourth round FA Cup clash with Bristol Rovers as they defeated League One Swindon on penalties.

Swindon missed all their penalties in the shoot-out, as Barnet held their nerve to win 2-0.

During the 90-minutes, Swindon had taken the lead when Billy Paynter pounced just before half-time.

Paynter then turned villain when he put through his own net to level matters, although Barnet played the whole of extra-time with 10-men as Michael Leary was dismissed 17 minutes from time.

Into the shoot-out and Antony Thomas and Joe O'Cearuill both converted and the win was confirmed as Miguel Comminges saw his spot-kick saved by Rob Beckwith.

Barnet now face Bristol Rovers - who also won a penalty shoot-out on Tuesday as they beat Premier League Fulham.
