Histon 1-0 Leeds

Matthew Langston's header stunned Leeds and earned non-league Histon a home tie with Swansea in the FA Cup third round.

In a game played in awful conditions, postman Langston netted from Gareth Gwillim's corner just before half-time.

Until that point Histon had rarely threatened, with Patrick Ada's near-own goal and Luciano Becchio's shot over being Leeds' best first-half chances.

Lubomir Michalik hit the post and had a shot cleared off the line as Leeds sought an equaliser but to no avail.


Histon: Naisbitt, Oyebanjo, Langston, Ada, Gwillim, Barker, Mitchell-King, Simpson, Knight-Percival, Wright, Midson.

Subs: Welch, Pope, Okay, Kennedy, Andrews, Reeves, Murray.

Leeds: Lucas, Richardson, Marques, Michalik, Sheehan, Delph, Douglas, Snodgrass, Robinson, Becchio, Hughes.

Subs: Ankergren, Prutton, Kilkenny, Howson, Parker, Showunmi, Telfer.
