    History makers Macclesfield - they are into the third round of the FA Cup, and what a tie this has been!

    It's been a real journey this fixture but Macclesfield have finally got there.

    Macclesfield striker Daniel Elliott's penalty was cancelled out by Slough Town's Wiktor Makowski's spot-kick, which forced the game into extra-time.

    An absolute worldie from James Edmondson saw the Silkmen retake the lead before, in the 127th minute, Regan Griffiths sealed the win.

    The FA Cup at it's very, very best folks!

  2. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:17 GMT 7 December 2025

    Boreham Wood 2-0 Newport County

    An open match with chances for both sides, with League Two side Newport hitting the post when the score was 0-0.

    But fifth-tier Boreham Wood have lived up to their billing as the favourites.

    Jeff King drilled the ball in from close range, before Regan Booty powered in a second.

    It could have been three, or four, in truth.

    Macclesfield get the job done.

    That's game over - we've been waiting a while for the third goal.

    It's great celebrations, that's what it's all about.

    Well that will seal it for the Silkmen!!!!!

    A long throw down the line eventually finds itself at the feet of Regan Griffiths, who fires a low shot past Adam Desbois and into the back of the net.

    Griffiths rips off his shirt as fans and manager John Rooney run on to the pitch - incredible scenes here!

    Newport boss Christian Fuchs will be disappointed with this 10-minute wobble. They have played well in patches but lacked consistency.

    Boreham Wood's quality players - their forward players - have come to the fore.

    Boreham Wood 2-0 Newport County

    13 shots so far from a Boreham Wood side who have had more than two-thirds of possession.

    Regan Booty has space and time to pick out his spot in front of goal, but Newport defender Ciaran Brennan is back to make a crucial block to keep his side in the game.

    We are well into the sixth of six minutes of injury time at the end of extra-time here!

    Can Slough fashion out another chance?

    ET: Slough Town 1-2 Macclesfield

    Slough keeper Adam Desbois comes forward for a throw-in and puts a good curling cross into the box but Macclesfield keeper Max Dearnley catches well under pressure.

    He earns a free-kick for his troubles after getting clattered in the air.

    Both keepers have been outstanding today.

    Huge goalmouth scramble in the Macclesfield box but the Silkmen somehow clear their lines!

    They are hanging on now here!

    It's another well-worked goal. It came from a turnover of possession.

    But it was all about the quality of the cross from Zak Brunt.

    And all the familiar cracks have opened for Newport County.

    It was fizzed in and the rebound was destined for the back of the net.

    He hasn't really had a lot to do but he parries it really well.

    We are into SIX minutes of injury time at the end of extra-time following that worrying looking injury to Brandon Lee.

    Slough have themselves a corner.

  14. WHAT A DOUBLE SAVEpublished at 15:08 GMT 7 December 2025

    ET: Slough 1-2 Macclesfield

    Slough thought they were level!

    A fine strike from distance is well kept out by Max Dearnley but on the rebound Peter Ojemen is sure he's scored but his close-range strike is superbly kept out once more by Dearnley.

    Macclesfield breathe a sigh of relief. Both keepers have been excellent in this match.

    Boreham Wood 2-0 Newport County

    Boreham Wood come forward with space again, but Manchester United loanee Habeeb Ogunneye gets his shoulders out to keep hold of the ball.

    There are some appeals from the home fans, but the referee says no.

    That's great play from Boreham Wood. You can see why they're a team that score so many goals, when they're going forward they're picking Newport apart.

    Boreham Wood were growing in confidence, and when Newport left gaps Boreham Wood were able to find those passes.

    It's been an even game so far, but Boreham Wood have taken their opportunities when Newport possibly should've been leading.

    What a sucker punch.

    Newport are on the ropes after conceding a flurry of chances.

    Regan Booty smashes the ball in from close range to double the lead for the National League hosts against the Football League's bottom team.
