HORSHAM came from two goals down to beat Sittingbourne Borough 4-2 and progress into the second round of the FA Trophy.
The hosts were stunned with two goals in two minutes in the first half, but Alex Haddow and Jean-Michel Sigere drew them level at the interval.
Sittingbourne continued to cause Horsham problems at the back in the second half, but on 76 minutes Lee Farrell scored to put the hosts ahead, and Nwachukwu smashed in on 90 minutes to make it 4-2.

90 mins (+4): GOAL FOR HORSHAM. Tony Nwachukwu puts it beyond doubt. Sigere did well to run the ball into the corner and then lay the ball to Carey on the edge of the box, his powerful shot is parried by Reed and the youngster is on hand to smash it into the net. He clearly enjoyed that and celebrates with a triple summersault.

90 mins: Sittingbourne keeper Reed comes up for a corner but it goes over his head, but the ball is headed back into the box for Seuke to save.

88 mins: Akhazzan takes a tumble in the box but it's a clear dive and it goes for a corner which is wasted.

86 mins: Lovely move by Horsham. Gary Charman breaks down the left at pace and lays the ball across the edged of the box for Sigere. It bounces up but the Frenchman manages to play it to Nwachukwa who hits a sweet half volley which Matt Reed saves brilliantly on the strtch.

82 mins: YELLOW CARD FOR HORSHAM. Ian Payne obstructs Kayembe a yard outside the box on the far left and is carded. The free kick is dangerous and Nick Reeves' flick is saved by Seuke.

76 mins: GOAL FOR HORSHAM: Lee Farrell heads Horsham in front. Andy Howard punted a free kick from just outside the Horsham area into the Sittingbourne box and Gary Charman got his head to the ball ahead of keeper Matt Reed and Farrell reacted quickest to beat a defender to the ball and nodded into an empty net. 3-2.

75 mins: YELLOW CARD FOR SITTINGBOURNE. Colin Richmond is carded for a shove on Charman.

72 mins: HORSHAM SUB: Tony Nwachukwa comes on for Evan Archibald. Nwachukwa moves over to the right and Farrell goes up front alongside Sigere.

70 mins: YELLOW CARD FOR SITTINGBOURNE: Colin Richamond is shown the yellow card for a fould on Ian Payne.

Sittingbourne continue to look dangerous on the break and they have forced Horsham to revert to the long ball which doesn't suite them. The next goal could be crucial.

Paul Seuke is wearing the captain's armband today and before the match was named HISC player of the month for some fine performances in recent weeks.

60 mins: Richard Bradbrook should have put Sittingbourne 3-2 up. Colin Richamond's dangerous corner came in and the striker made the run but them completely missed the ball when it would have been easier to head in from three yards.

58 mins: Gary Charman looks lively since coming on. He cut inside his man on the left and tried to threat Archibald in, but the defender just cut it out.

56 mins: YELLOW CARD FOR HORSHAM. Lee Farrell goes into the book for a lunge from behind. The free kick from 35 yards out is wasted.

52 mins: Sittingbourne have started the brighter. Elie Kayembe has a vicious shot from outside the box which Seuke palms clear and then Hicham Akhazzan has a long range tester which the keeper turns over the bar.

50 mins: Horsham substitution. Gary Charman comes on for Lee Carney.

Stevenage Borough boss Graham Westley is here at Woodside Road ahead of their FA Cup match next weekend. He won't be too worries by what he's seen so far but it might well be a much changed Hornets team.

JEAN-Michel Sigere's flying volley on the stroke of half time means the sides go in 2-2 at the break.
Horsham were on top for the first 20 minutes before Sittingbourne stunned them with two goals in two minutes from Tom Bradbrook and Richard Brady.
Alex Haddow's volley pulled a goal back on the half hour mark, but Sittingbourne have been the better side and sliced open the Hornet's makeshift back four on a number of occaisions.

45 mins (+2): GOAL FOR HORSHAM: Jean-Michel Sigere scores a flying volley to round off a cracking move and bring the scores level. Great interchange on the left between Alex Haddow and Mark Knee, Knee's cross is met by the boot of the Frenchman who hits the back of the net still in mid air.

It's the Division 1 side who are looking the more danerous at the moment as Horsham are being pushed back into their own half. Sittingbourne's movement around the box is causing them problems and the defence looks very shaky.

40 mins: Sittingbourne have a strong penalty appeal turned down. A chipped ball again flat foots the defence and Bradbrook goes down under Seuke's challenge, but the ref is well placed and signals a corner.

39 mins: Sittingbourne substitution: Nick Reeves comes off and is replaced by Ben Payne.

35 mins: Haddow so nearly adds a second. Great work by Lee Farrell on the right. Sigere fed him and he skipped past his man and stood up a perfect cross for Haddow to bring down, but his shot from six yards is deflected just over. From the corner their are strong appeals for a handball, but the ref gestures that it hit his chest, not his arm.

33 mins: Horsham's defence looks very uneasy and again a simple through ball sees Brady get behind them, but he runs just wide and the ball is cleared.

31 mins: GOAL FOR HORSHAM: Alex Haddow pulls one back for Horsham. The ball was headed partially clear from a corner and the winger hit a left foot volley which travelled through a crowd of bodies and into the far corner of the net.

The goals have really knocked Horsham off their stride. Lee Carey and Jean-Michel Sigere have just given the ball away sloppily and they're suddenly looking rushed.

24 mins: GOAL FOR SITTINGBOURNE: A disasterous two minutes for Horsham sees them go two down. Bradbrook turns provider by slipping a defence splitting pass behind Andy Howard, and Brady puts Seuke on his backside before rounding him and applying the finish.

23 mins: GOAL FOR SITTINGBOURNE: Richard Brady slides a lovely through ball to Tom Bradbrook, who takes a touch and then fires high into the net from inside the area.
22 mins: Sittingbourne get their first shot on target. The ball breaks to Hicham Akhazzan on the edge of the area, he side steps two challenges and has a pop at goal. Seuke saves and does well to hold on.

20 mins: Lee Carney is ominously limping and it looks like he's got a problem with his troubled ankle, but he's carrying on for the moment

16 mins: Russell Eldridge gives away a free kick on the right hand side of the box. It's floated in but it's easy for Paul Seuke.

14 mins: Horsham have made the better start to the match as expected. Sittingbourne stopper Matt Reed nearly made a howler when Alex Haddow's shot from distance slipped out of his grasp and bounced on the goal line.

LEE CARNEY starts his first game for the Hornets since September, but they line up without Jack Page who has a groin injury, Ian Payne replaces him.
Horsham boss John Maggs has warned about underestimating Sittingbourne, who have won all of their six away games in the league this season and lie in fifth place in Ryman Division 1 South.
