Hendon's FA Cup adventure came to an abrupt halt at Herne Bay on Saturday as the Greens went down 3-0 to their Step 4 opponents.

After a bright opening in which Joe White was denied by a fine save by the home goalkeeper, the hosts never looked back after taking the lead through the best player on the pitch, Artem Kuchkov just before the half hour mark.

Although Blaise Riley-Snow hit the crossbar shortly after the break, Scott Heard capitalised on a defensive error to double Bay's lead before Michael Salako turned and finished to cap a miserable afternoon for the Greens on the Kent coast.
