Kidderminster Harriers stun Doncaster Rovers in FA Cup first round

Non-league Kidderminster Harriers knocked League One Doncaster Rovers out of the FA Cup to reach the second round.

BETAIGO EditorialUpdated:

Kidderminster Harriers produced an FA Cup first-round upset by beating League One side Doncaster Rovers to advance to the second round. The National League club's victory over opponents from two divisions higher is the headline result from the tie.

Doncaster, who play in League One, were eliminated by a non-league opponent, with the result ending their involvement in this season's competition at the first hurdle. Kidderminster move on to the second round.

The fixture was covered as part of the FA Cup first-round action. Video coverage of the match was restricted to viewers in the United Kingdom, so fans outside the country could not watch it through that service.

The outcome adds another lower-league giant-killing to the competition's first-round storylines, with a National League club removing a League One side from the draw.
