Maidenhead became the first senior side since 1886 to reach the second round of the FA Cup when they defeated Sutton United Women 4-3 away from home with an extra-time winner from Macey Nikiah-Walters. Maidenhead looked to have a small psychological advantage over their hosts coming into the clash, with Ed Jackson-Norris' side sitting a place and a couple of points above Southampton in the FA Women's National League Division One South West. But as the Magpies attempted to readjust, the Sirens bagged their third of the afternoon through Shannon Sievwright to kill off any hopes of a comeback. So, it's Southampton Women's FC who'll host the Hornets on Sunday (December 10), where winning sides will pocket £35,000 from the FA's Prize draw.
