Wroxham 2, Witney 3
WITNEY earned themselves a tie with Stevenage in the next round of the FA Cup with a well-deserved victory in Norfolk.
A tactical change by manager Andy Line was one of the major differences to the previous games.
After eight minutes Witney took the lead when Caffel took advantage of a defensive error allowing Ovens to score.
After dominating the game for long periods Wroxham scored an undeserved equaliser on 30 minutes when Musgrove converted Neale's cross.
Neville, Caffel and Wimble all had chances before Martin put Witney back in front on 63 minutes when he headed home from a corner from 15 yards, and on 68 minutes Martin's long ball down the left found Teggart who headed over the advancing goalkeeper and the ball went in off the post. It capped a great performance by Teggart.
Wroxham pulled one back on 71 minutes when Barbrook headed home from a free kick but it wasn't enough for Wroxham.

Attendance: 372.
