Scunthorpe United 0-0 Boston United (4-5 on penalties)

The Pilgrims, fresh from their 5-4 shootout win at Alfreton Town on Tuesday, repeated the feat at Scunthorpe United following another goalless draw.

Michael Bostwick, Zak Mills, Jacob Hazel and Deji Sotona all scored from the spot and although Keaton Ward was denied by ex-Pilgrim Ross Fitzsimons, Jordan Richards stepped up to score - with Cameron Gregory's saves to deny Ross Barrows and Liam McAlinden proving decisive.

Manager Ian Culverhouse had once again opted to name an unchanged 16-man squad ahead of kick-off. Alongside Fitzsimons, fellow ex-Pilgrim Danny Elliott was on the Iron bench.

Scunthorpe started well, with Will Evans sending a header wide from a Jacob Butterfield free-kick delivery, while Callum Roberts' curling cross was cut out by Gregory, with the same player later lashing a free-kick into the United defensive wall.

The first real save of the game fell to Fitzsimons - denying Jimmy Knowles on the angle.

Scunthorpe wanted a penalty for Richards' tangle with Alfie Beestin, but referee Zac Kennard-Kettle was unmoved five minutes after the break.

Dylan Hill flashed an effort over the crossbar following Jai Rowe's cutback before Brad Nicholson took centre stage at the other end, producing a sublime block to deny a near certain goal for Danny Whitehall.

Richards saw an effort blocked on the line by Barrows, while Fitzsimons turned behind a low drive from Knowles as United sensed a famous away win.

Gregory produced the save of the game in the 72nd minute to turn Roberts' left-footer wide of the post, while Nicholson produced another stunning piece of defending to deny Roberts on the end of Whitehall's unselfish assist.

Extra-time contained yellow cards and substitutions aplenty - but not much noteworthy action otherwise.

Michael Clunan and Elliott got Scunthorpe's spot-kicks off to a positive start, before Gregory's save to thwart Barrows. Whitehall and substitute Dion Sembie-Ferris subsequently kept the Iron alive, but Gregory's low save to thwart McAlinden, after Richards had netted, sealed the deal for the Pilgrims.
