Wealdstone eased into the fourth qualifying round of the FA Cup with a 5-1 win at Wessex League side Brockenhurst on Saturday and will now eagerly await the draw from Wembley Stadium on Monday.

Goals from Jefferson Louis, Tom Hamblin, an own goal, Scott Davies and Johnny Wright secured victory with the game tied at 1-1 at half-time.

But the game will be remembered for Davies’ truly spectacular 75-yard strike that made it 4-1 late in the tie.

The former Reading midfielder had just entered as a substitute when he picked the ball up from a knock-down just outside his own penalty area, looked up, saw goalkeeper Callum Maher off his line and lofted home in stunning fashion.

It was unfortunate for the young Badgers keeper as he had enjoyed an excellent game, making several crucial saves including a penalty stop from Louis in the second half.

The Stones started stronger than their hosts, who looked nervous on the ball, and they almost allowed Matt Ball in on goal in the opening minutes.

Wealdstone stunned the home side with a soft opening goal on 12 minutes when Jefferson Louis got up to a high ball well outside the area and looped a header, that seemed to be going nowhere, over Maher and into the net.

Brockenhurst hit back after several Stones attacks had broken down and forced a couple of decent corners that were well defended.

Shaun Lucien was now the away side’s most effective and dangerous forward and he was able to sling over several good crosses that should have produced more.

The best of these efforts fell to Louis on 20 minutes but the powerful forward crashed his header against the angle of crossbar and post.

Louis almost atoned when his vicious snap-shot was brilliantly pushed away by Maher.

But Wealdstone were rocked with four minutes of the half remaining.

They were caught out by a quick break and when the ball fell invitingly to Mark Barker he rifled a deflected shot past the despairing dive of Jonathan North.

Stones’ play looked more intense after the break and they pressed hard to regain the lead. A scramble in the box almost produced a breakthrough but again Maher was alert, helped by some last ditch defending.

But five minutes later Stones’ pressure told.

From a free-kick Wright powered a header towards goal but Maher could only parry to Hamblin, who turned and calmly fired the ball into the roof of the net.

The turning point of the game came on 64 minutes when, following a period of Badgers’ pressure, Wes Parker got back brilliantly to clear off the line to prevent another equaliser.

This let-off galvanised the Stones. From yet another Lucien cross the ball ran free in the box and under pressure, Badgers defender Jude Nwachkwu put through his own net.

That set-back visibly deflated the home side and matters got worse for them on 74 minutes when Matt Lowe was brought down for a penalty.

Louis’ spot kick was struck well enough but Maher again excelled and leapt across to save for a corner kick.

Davies then made his outrageous mark on the game with the fourth but there was still time for Wright to complete the scoring well into added time with a fifth goal to send the 200 away fans into raptures.

Wealdstone: North, Duffy, Urquhart, Parker, Hamblin, Godfrey, Wright, Lowe, Louis (McGleish 83), Ball (Davies 69), Lucien (Hudson-Odoi 76).
