Scarborough Athletic beat Dunston UTS 5-2 in the Emirates FA Cup 2nd Qualifying Round Replay last night.

Boro had the perfect start when Keiran Weledji scored in the 3rd minute.

Dunston had a golden chance to equalise moments before Man Of The Match Dom Tear doubled Scarborough's lead in the 32nd minute before Alex Wiles made it 3 five minutes later after Dunston's Phil Turnbull bizarrely let Wiles in after assuming the referee was going to blow his whistle for a free kick.

The Seadogs started the 2nd half much like the first half, scoring early on through Cameron Wilson.

Boro couldn't hold onto a clean sheet though, with sub Richard Coulson netting for the visitors, who battled hard all night.

Scarborough regained their 4-goal cushion through Reserves player and sub Luke Rees who blasted it in from close range.

Another consolation goal game very late on for the visitors in what was a very entertaining game.

Here's Scarborough's goals, as heard on This Is The Coast Extra commentary last night:
