An extra time winner from James Everitt gave Folkestone Invicta victory in their Kent Senior up First Round tie away to Faversham Town on Tuesday night.

Josh Vincent had twice put Invicta ahead at Salters Lane, only for Justin Ascheri and Adrian Stone to bring the home side level and force the extra half hour.

Invicta now play at home to Dartford in the next round.

The Folkestone side made one change to their starting eleven as Ryan Moreby came in for Roland Edge.

And the visitors opened the scoring in the tenth minute when VINCENT found the net after Frankie Chappell had met a Darren smith free kick from the left with his head.

Faversham responded as one-time Invicta striker Damian Abel curled a shot wide from just outside the penalty area on the left hand side.

And ASCHERI made it 1-1 in the 14th minute when he was given on-side down the right hand side and drilled a low shot across goal into the far corner of the net.

Invicta had another chance of their own a minute later when striker Richard Atkins was put through but fired wide.

Smith then hit a dipping 24th minute shot just over the crossbar from the right hand side of the penalty area.

And Invicta restored their lead in the 28th minute when VINCENT was there again to convert at the far post after Josh Burchell had broke down the left hand side and played the ball across goal.

Invicta threatened again in the 32nd minute when another Burchell cross from the left flew just in front of Moreby when Faversham played themselves into trouble and Atkins was just unable to get on the end of a Smith cross-shot from the right a minute later.

At the other end, a 38th minute Stone shot from the right hand side got a touch for the game’s first corner and Stone then fired horribly wide a minute later when Abel went round goalkeeper Jack Delo and squared the ball after Ascheri had got clear down the right again.

Faversham came right back into the game during the second half as Delo parried away a well-struck 51st minute shot from Aaron Quain after a Stone touch.

Quain then did not get enough power on his shot five minutes later when a Dave Botterill touch sent him racing down the right.

It was 2-2 on the hour mark when STONE drilled the ball in from the left hand side of the penalty area after Abel had headed on a Sam Gore cross from the left when home captain Tom Hickman played the ball out wide.

A 63rd minute ball over the Invicta defence then sent Quain clear on the right but his fierce shot was parried away by Delo.

Invicta then gave a debut to youth team striker Dexter Bondongwe in place of Atkins.

Faversham were enjoying their best spell of the tie and Ascheri side-footed wide in the 71st minute when Abel laid the ball of following a ball into the penalty area.

Invicta then began to create chances of their own again as a well-struck 25-yard shot from Smith was held by home goalkeeper Dan Ellis.

James Everitt fired the ball over the crossbar in the 78th minute when Bondongwe touched the ball back to the edge of the penalty area and Bondongwe met a Burchell cross from the left a minute later but his header went off Chappell for a goal kick.

Faversham goalkeeper Ellis then did well to deny Moreby in the 84th minute when James Everitt played the ball out to Burchell on the left and the ball came in.

The home side themselves went in search of a late winner as Ascheri over-hit his cross from the right hand side when Abel played the ball out wide and Delo claimed the ball before Abel could pounce when Hickman met an Ascheri cross from the right at the far post in a move also involving Stone.

An Ascheri shot from the right was deflected for a corner early in the first period of extra time.

But it was Invicta who went ahead for a third and final time in the 103rd minute when EVERITT applied the finish after Chappell had touched on a Smith ball in from the left.

It was leading goalscorer Everitt’s sixth goal in Invicta’s last six matches.

Abel then shot wide from the edge of the penalty area just before half time of extra time after a Quain ball.

A 108th minute Moreby shot lacked power after a Bondongwe touch to the right hand side of the penalty area.

At the other end, Invicta defender Liam Dickson blocked a Hickman shot when a substitute Dan Ellett met a deep cross from the left at the far post.

Chappell then got across to tackle when Ellett played the ball up to fellow substitute Tommy Hill.

As time ran out for the home side, Quain shot wide from just outside the penalty area when a Botterill corner from the right came back out.

Faversham’s Quain was the game’s only booking at the start of the second period of extra time.

The statistics make happy reading for an Invicta side that has now won three ties in three different cup competitions over the past seven days and has won four consecutive games in four different competitions over an 11-day period.

Strangely, the visitors did not win a single corner during the entire 120 minutes.

The two clubs meet again in the league at Folkestone on Saturday.
