FA Cup run over as Kidderminster beaten at Fylde
Kidderminster Harriers missed out on the chance to claim a place in the first round proper of the FA Cup, going down 2-0 at AFC Fylde.
Harriers’ Jack Bearne forced a save from the Fylde keeper in the opening seconds but after that, neither side was really able to create any real chances in the first half, with only hopeful efforts from distance materialising. However, in the second half, Fylde made home advantage count as they grew into the game and Siyabonga Ligendza broke the deadlock from close range.
Luke Charman added a second for Fylde on 82 minutes to end Harriers’ Cup journey for another year.
In the Southern Central Premier, Hednesford Town went down 1-0 at home to Staffordshire rivals Tamworth. Dan Creaney scored the decisive goal on 74 minutes.

In Northern One Midlands, Chasetown lost 1-0 at Gresley Rovers while Sporting Khalsa thrashed Harborough Town 5-1.
