Division 1 Larkfield & New Hythe produced another upset to reach the last four of the Kent Senior Trophy.
Having beaten Corinthian in the previous round, Larkfield claimed another Premier Division scalp by winning 4-1 at Lordswood in their Quarter-final tie on Saturday.
Callum Peck’s brilliant volley from the edge of the area put Lordswood ahead but Larkfield levelled through Tyler Ibe’s bullet finish. They were ahead by the break as Ibe’s free-kick from 30 yards caught out keeper Hadley Glock.
Leading scorer Matt Day scored their third from close range just before the hour mark before Kwasi Amoah sealed the win with a neat right-foot finish.
Croydon progressed last week, Erith Town and Snodland will try again on Tuesday night after a frozen pitch saw their clash postponed while the final tie saw Whitstable take on Faversham Strike Force.
Another upset was on the cards when Marshall Wratten put the Force ahead early in the second half but Emmanuel Oloyede’s equaliser meant the tie went to extra-time.
Whitstable progressed 3-1 in front of 528 at The Belmont thanks to two goals in three minutes from Liam Gillies and Josh Williams.
