Stow's Jack Baker came close to breaking the deadlock just before the break but his effort was superbly blocked.

Swaffham had strong claims for a penalty at the start of the second half but the referee waved away their protests.

The Pedlars so nearly went ahead when Scott Chaplain made an excellent run into the visitors' penalty area but his effort agonisingly came back off the post and the keeper gathered the rebound.

Stow had two goals chalked off for offside and a foul in the first period of extra time and Swaffham faced a real uphill battle when Danny Tindall picked up his second booking of the afternoon. However, Paul Hunt's men held firm in the second period to secure a replay on Tuesday night and they will be hoping they can still secure their place in the last 32 of the competition.

Kirkley & Pakefield moved up to fifth in the Premier Division table after an impressive 3-0 win at Brantham Athletic.

Kyle Haylock was at the double for the Royals whilst Kaiden Goldspink was also on target.

Peter Lambert's hat-trick helped Gorleston to a comprehensive 4-1 win at home against Whitton United.

The Greens took the lead just after the half hour mark when Lambert got on the end of Connor Ingram's cross to finish from close range. The pair combined again in the 35th minute to make it 2-0 as Lambert finished well at the back post. Whitton gave themselves a glimmer of hope before the break though thanks to a fine long range strike from Adam Dunnage. The two-goal advantage was restored five minutes into the second half as Joel Watts fired home after being put through by Ingram and Lambert wrapped up the points late on with his third of the afternoon.
