Everton are still awaiting confirmation of their FA Cup third-round opponents after local rivals Cheltenham Town and Hereford United played out a 1-1 draw at Whaddon Road this evening.
Non-league Hereford are still in the hunt for a lucrative trip to Goodison Park after Josh O'Keefe cancelled out Shaun Harrard's opener to force a replay later this month.
Pacey winger Jermaine McGlashan was instrumental in giving Cheltenham an early advantage, crossing precisely for Harrad to turn home from six yards.
The Terriers were level just four minutes later when O'Keefe's close-range header beat Scott Brown in the home goal.
Mark Yates's League Two outfit came closest to winning the tie at the first attempt, but Darren Carter, Alan Bennett and Kaid Mohamaed were all denied by Hereford goalkeeper James Bittner.
The replay will take place at Edgar Street on the week commencing December 10.
