Exeter City made up for the disappointment of their Devon derby defeat against Plymouth Argyle to reach the Southern Area Final of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy by beating Bristol Rovers.
After drawing 2-2 in 90 minutes, the Grecians found the target through an own goal from Pirates defender Byron Anthony and an 89th minute strike from Ryan Harley, who only featured from the subs' bench against Plymouth due to illness.
In the spot-kick shoot out, Harley, Billy Jones, Daniel Nardiello and David Noble all kept their cool to score from the spot before Richard Duffy stepped up to score the Grecians' fifth and decisive penalty as they equalled their best ever run in the competition.
Exeter will now face Brentford over two legs with the winner facing the victor of the Northern Final that will feature Carlisle United and Huddersfield Town.
