Full-time - The dream is over for Borough. Stuart Beavon scored a hat-trick in the last nine minutes on 81, 85 and 88 minutes as Weymouth win 4-0.

52 mins - Jefferson Louis scores for Weymouth.

Half-time - Borough started brightly and could have taken the lead in the tenth minute if Scott Ramsay had shown a little more composure.

A quick throw-in from Matt Crabb caught the visitors' defence napping but the former Albion striker's tame effort was easily saved by Jon Stewart.

Crabb forced Stewart into action again soon after following good work by Andy Atkin but the keeper got down well to turn his shot around the post.

At the other end, Lee Hook had to be alert to race off his line and smother an effort from the advancing Paolo Vernazza.

The visitors appeared rattled by Borough's positive start and were relieved when a penalty appeal for handball was turned down after Paul Armstrong's shot had hit a defender. Weymouth also had a shout for a spot kick but the referee deemed Jay Lovett's challenge on Beavon was legitimate.

Borough lost their way a little towards the end of the half but came within a whisker of taking the lead on the stroke of half-time.

Crabb, the smallest player on the pitch, rose magnificently to head Ben Austin's cross powerfully downwards but once again Stewart came to Weymouth's rescue with a superb save.

Borough were at full strength for the visit of Conference side Weymouth and a crowd of around 2,000 were in Priory Lane to see if they could reach the second round for the first time in their history.
