Danny Collinge nodded in the dramatic 89th-minute equaliser, just when it seemed that Shane McLoughlin’s 44th-minute strike was going to be enough for the Welsh hosts to reach round three.

County manager Graham Coughlan was happy to get another opportunity, even though his side had come so close to scraping through.

“We are still in the cup,” said Coughlan. “We had chances to put the game to bed, but we didn’t, they were better than us and we got out of jail.
