REDDITCH came back from a goal down to bank £7,500 and book a place in the second qualifying round of the FA Cup with a helping hand from Eastwood striker Mark Smith.
The lanky target man had been the focus of the home side's long ball approach from kick-off, but was caught trying to defend in his own area in the 72nd minute and succeeded only in converting a fierce left wing cross into a winning strike for the visitors.
Nicky Kennerdale had put Eastwood in front in the 23rd minute only for Reds hitman Peter Sutton to level six minutes later.
Sutton fired in from a tight angle after a delighful ball from star winger Alex Cowley.
On the opposite flank, United wing wizard Matty Hall hit the post in the 35th minute and Redditch's domination was eventually rewarded by Smith's intervention.
