Grantham thought they had gone ahead early in the tie only for the referee to rule the goal out for off-side.

Rangers responded and Luke Jones put them ahead before Tom Thorley doubled their lead.

It was a dream start for the Boro when Theo Bailey-Jones continued his goal scoring form by putting his side 3-0 ahead with just over 30 minutes played.

However, Grantham were handed a route back into the tie after 55 minutes when Andrew Haworth was given his second yellow card and sent off.

That only spurred Rangers on for more goal and Lewis Banks scored a fourth before Dan Burns completed the scoring to make it 5-0 with all their goals coming from headers.
