League Two side progress

Accrington Stanley came from behind to shock League One Oldham 2-1 at Boundary Park in their Johnstone's Paint Trophy first-round clash. The Latics have not won at home since February and they threw away a strong position after Danny Whitaker's early strike. Only 10 minutes had gone when Whitaker brought down Pawel Abbott's right-wing cross and lashed into the roof of the net from 12 yards, while the hosts wasted further chances to extend their lead. Accrington, however, took control after the break and sub Jimmy Ryan drew a fine save from Dean Brill before Michael Symes broke down the left and saw his near-post cross sliced into his own goal by home skipper Sean Gregan. The goal was soon followed by Accrington's 66th minute winner as they worked a set-piece routine that allowed Phil Edwards to drill into the bottom corner from 14 yards. Oldham missed chances to equalise when visiting keeper Ian Dunbavin denied Alan Sheehan a debut goal and Ryan Brooke grazed the woodwork, while Accrington's joy was tempered in the closing minutes when Ryan was carried off with a serious injury.
