The draw made on Monday night has handed teams some dream ties with set to take on Derby County and will host Championship outfit Millwall.

It capped a fantastic weekend for Non-League in the world's oldest cup competition.

In the other all-Non-League tie of the day, Pitching In Northern Premier League Division One North West outfit Marine upset Step 2 after extra time.

Skipper Niall Cummins turned the ball over the line in the 120th-minute of the game.

And Neil Young's men, who best Colchester United in the first round, were rewarded with a dream tie that will see megastars like Harry Kane and Gareth Bale take a trip to the Marine Travel Arena in January.

And on Monday night, Boreham Wood saw off with a 3-0 win to set-up their date with Millwall as they reached the third round for the first time in their history.
