Solihull Moors forced Blackpool into a replay in the second round of the FA Cup following a 0-0 draw.

It was a positive performance by the National League side who looked more than a match for their League One opponents and nearly caused an upset.

The biggest talking point of the first half came when Solihull had a goal disallowed as Darren Carter was ruled to be offside before his cross was volleyed in by Alex Gudger.

Carter was adjudged to have been offside when his short corner was played back to him.

Blackpool were left frustrated for large portions of the match but had two fantastic opportunities to take the lead early in the second half.

Ryan Boot was forced to make a fantastic save from Joe Dodoo who earlier played through striker Armand Gnanduillet who could only shoot into the keeper’s gloves.

It was a frantic ending to the match with both teams having huge chances in the space of 60 seconds.
