Macclesfield beat 10-man Slough Town in extra time to progress to the third round of the FA Cup for the first time since the club was re-formed.

After a goalless first half between the two sixth tier sides, the Silkmen found the breakthrough as Daniel Elliott scored from a penalty, with Slough's Kiki Oshilaja sent off for his challenge that gave away the spot-kick.

Slough fired themselves back into the game late on as Wiktor Makowski also found the net from 12 yards, sending the tie to extra time.

But the away side scored twice in extra time to win the tie as James Edmondson struck from range into the top corner and Regan Griffiths added a third in the final moments.

Macclesfield Town were wound up by the High Court over debts totalling more than £500,000 five years ago and subsequently returned as Macclesfield FC when they were taken over later in 2020.

After a goalless first half, Macclesfield took the lead. D'Mani Mellor was played through on goal and fouled by Oshilaja in the box who was given a second yellow card and sent off.

Elliott's spot-kick rebounded off the post and in to send the visitors in front but Slough were handed a lifeline penalty late on when Harvey Walker was fouled in the box and Makowski sent the keeper the wrong way to fire the Rebels level and take it to extra time.

Early into extra time, Edmondson produced a stunning strike from distance to send the ball into the top corner before running into the crowd to celebrate with the 600 travelling fans.

With extra time ticking down, there was a pause in play as Macclesfield defender Brandon Lee was taken off on a stretcher after he appeared to sustain a leg injury, with paramedics entering the field to give him treatment.

The Silkmen added a third in the final moments when a throw down the line found Regan Griffiths, who fired a low shot from the corner of the box past Slough keeper Adam Desbois and into the back of the net.
