Forest Green 1
Cheltenham 3
Aaron Basford scored twice as rivals Cheltenham Town dumped Forest Green Rovers out of the FA Youth Cup.
Basford gave the visitors the lead before Dan Ogunleye replied for Rovers. William Dawes scored early in the second half before Basford sealed it for the Robins who have set up a second round tie with Gillingham.
Basford gave Cheltenham the lead after just four minutes as he beat Harrison Yates at his near post.
Rovers were presented a great chance to equalise when Daniel Jones was caught in the box and a penalty was awarded. Dan Ogunleye stepped up but his penalty was saved and beaten away by Harrison Yates on 14 minutes.
Three minutes later Ogunleye made amends as he equalised with a cool finish into the bottom corner after getting on the end of Jones' through ball.
Ogunleye was unlucky not to get his second when he hit the bar with a looping header from a free kick justg before half time.
Cheltenham regained the lead at four minutes after the break when William Dawes neatly finished after the ball was played across goal.
The visitors had the ball in the net on 73 minutes when Basford lobbed Yates but was denied by the offside flag.
That was quickly forgotton four minutes later as Basford tapped in a rebound after Yates made a couple of fine saves.
