National League side Tamworth knock Huddersfield out of FA Cup after boss ditches holiday


National League outfit Tamworth have proved the magic is still alive in the FA Cup after knocking out League One side Huddersfield in the first round.

Tamworth, 16th in the National League, have incredibly progressed to the second round after Huddersfield goalkeeper Chris Maxwell put into his own net as he failed to deal with a long throw-in on the stroke of half-time.

Andy Peak, who had to abandon a romantic holiday with his wife for the FA Cup clash, and his Tamworth squad will find out who they face in the next round in Sunday evening’s draw.
