Cray Wanderers launched a spirited comeback against Ebbsfleet United but just fell short as they bowed out of the FA Cup.

Michael West and Gareth Williams were on the mark to put Ebbsfleet two goals up, but Steve Lozano and Leigh Bremner netted to peg Fleet back and keep Wands' hopes alive.

However, goals from Calum Willock and Ricky Shakes ended any hopes of a revival.

Margate were knocked out the FA Cup in the cruellest fashion after losing a penalty shootout to Kingstonian on Monday night.

An inspired goalkeeping display from Jamie Turner had helped Gate to a 1-1 draw, but Tommy Osborne, Jay Saunders and Lawrence Ball all had their penalties saved as the K’s won through.

Wayne Wilson had earlier given Iain O’Connell’s men the lead before Lee Hall equalised, although the night was soured when big striker Shaun Welford was sent-off for two bookable offences.

Leiston ended Folkestone Invicta's FA Cup dreams on Tuesday evening after losing 2-1 in Suffolk.

James Everitt netted an equaliser after Gareth Heath had given Leiston the lead, but Heath then bagged a second to knock Invicta out.
