Eastbourne Borough suffered a shock defeat in the fourth qualifying round of the FA Cup as they were beaten at home by Harrow Borough.

The Sports trailed the Ryman Premier Division side 3-0 at the break and were eventually beaten 4-2, with Troy Hewitt scoring a hat-trick.

Meanwhile Lewes were beaten 3-0 away to Cambridge United.

Boro boss Garry Wilson told BBC Sussex: "It was a major disappointment. We've let down everybody at the club today."

He added: "It was a poor display. It came as a bolt out of the blue.

"It was far from my thoughts that we could turn in a performance like that, especially with the way we've been playing.

"We weren't competitive enough today. My players surprised me with the performance today but Harrow deserved their victory."
