Grimsby Town 0-0 Shrewsbury Town
- From the section FA Cup
Non-league Grimsby will face an FA Cup second-round replay against Shrewsbury Town after sharing a goalless draw with the League One side.
The hosts hit the bar either side of half-time through Padraig Amond's volley and Conor Townsend's deep cross.
After visiting keeper Jayson Leutwiler was taken off on a stretcher, striker Scott Vernon wasted a good chance before Grimsby's Alex Jones went close.
The winners of the replay will face Cardiff City in the third round.
Should National League side Grimsby win the second-round replay, it would mean Cardiff boss Russell Slade faces his former side.
Grimsby Town manager Paul Hurst told BBC Radio Humberside:

"I felt we created the better chances. Overall, I'm delighted with the performance.
"Now I think it's going to be a difficult task. It was anyway, but the lads rose to that challenge.
"When the replay comes around, everyone will give everything to cause and upset because there's no doubt that's what it would be."
Shrewsbury Town manager Micky Mellon told BBC Radio Shropshire:
"Our attackers had a tough night. We probably didn't give them enough options or create enough chances for them but when they did have opportunities they were not able to take them.
"I always knew it was going to be difficult. We knew we would have to do the basics well and I thought for long spells in the first half we didn't do that.
"Both sides would say a draw was fair. Our defence did well to stand their ground and keep Grimsby out. But the positives are that we are still in it and we can still go through."
