Plymouth Parkway secured a first‑ever place in the FA Cup second round after a dramatic 2‑1 extra‑time victory over Berkhamsted on Saturday.
Berkhamsted opened the scoring, but the home side rallied in the extra‑time period, with striker Andrew Neal converting two penalties to overturn the deficit.
Neal’s first spot‑kick came early in the extra‑time period, leveling the match, and his second, taken later, gave Plymouth the decisive lead.
The win marks a historic milestone for the non‑league club, which has never before progressed beyond the first round of the world’s oldest knockout football competition.
With the second‑round tie now set, Plymouth Parkway will await the draw to discover which higher‑ranked opponent they will face next in the tournament.
