Dartford left it late before coming from behind to defeat Cray Wanderers at Hayes Lane and book an FA Cup fourth qualifying round place.

The Wands edged the opening stages, although there was litle goalmouth action in an uninspiring first half.

The hosts eventually took the lead after 47 minutes when the Darts defence went to sleep allowing Jack Clark to burst forward before finding Tommy Whitnell who beat Andrew Young and found the net.

At the other end, Adam Green saw a shot well- saved before Dartford's top-scorer Charlie Sheringham picked up a costly caution - his fifth of the season - with around 20 minutes remaining.

Almost immediately afterwards, the equaliser arrived when Ryan Hayes' (pictured) superb free-kick from around 45 yards out beat everyone, including the Cray keeper, and nestled in the corner.

The game was up for Cray nine minutes later when Darts substitute Danny Harris fired in a shot which deflected past Walker and into the net, which led to Cray boss Ian Jenkins being sent from the dugout for his furious protests.

The victory secured Darts the £7,500 prize money and a place in the hat for Monday morning's draw.
